Celine Dion has revealed that she will be performing again in Paris for 10 “unforgettable shows” as she continues to battle stiff person syndrome.
“I wanted to let you know that I’m taking care of my health and that I’m doing well,” the “My Heart Will Go On” songstress shared on YouTube on Monday.
“I’m feeling good and I’m singing again and dancing a little bit. Of course I love it very much. But I have to say something very important.”
Dion, 58, expressed his gratitude to his fans, explaining that he has felt the “prayers and support” from them over the past few years.
The five-time Grammy winner, who was also celebrating her 58th birthday, said she “received the best birthday present of my life.”
“I have the opportunity to meet and perform with you once again in Paris starting in September,” she said. “I’m ready to do this.”
“I’m feeling good, strong, excited and of course a little nervous, but most of all I’m grateful to everyone,” Dion added. “I can’t wait to see you all again.”
Advance tickets for Dion’s show at Paris’ La Défense Arena went on sale on April 7th.
The “I’m Alive” singer will be on stage for 10 nights from September 17th to October 14th.
The “All By Myself” singer announced in 2022 that she was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome and had to cancel several concerts.
“I’ve been dealing with my health issues for a long time. It was really difficult to face these challenges and talk about everything I’ve been through,” she said in an emotional video.
According to John Hopkins Medicine, the condition is a “rare autoimmune neurological disease that most commonly causes muscle stiffness and painful spasms, and symptoms may come and go and worsen over time.”
Dion returned to the stage two years later, performing Edith Piaf’s “Hymn of Love” at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
In November of the same year, the music icon also performed her 1993 song “The Power of Love” and her 2002 song “I’m Alive” at the 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab fashion show in Saudi Arabia.
She also seemed upbeat as she wished her fans a Happy Thanksgiving with a message of gratitude in November 2025.
