A few years ago, Celine Dion announced she was struggling with a health condition, Stiff-Person Syndrome. Even though the singer loved performing, she knew she had to step away from the stage to put her health first.

As Celine continued fighting her illness, she vowed to perform for her fans again someday. That came true during the opening ceremonies for the Olympic games.

As the opening ceremonies drew to a close, Celine Dion performed for the world atop the Eiffel Tower. Just after the Olympic torch was lit, the Canadian singer performed in French, dressed in a lovely white gown.

Her voice rang out across the city and she became emotional as she performed. Fans noticed she seemed close to tears as she continued.

During her new documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, the singer detailed the challenges she had to overcome. Her Stiff-Person Syndrome diagnosis gave her painful spasms and left her wondering if she could ever perform live again.

Celine Dion’s epic return sparked hope in her fans and viewers across the world.

The publication reports that her Vegas show will be a 70-minute run of her greatest hits. It’s rumored that her run will be around the same time as the Las Vegas Formula One Grand Prix.

However, Celine knows she also needs to prioritize her health. Reportedly, the plan is to push back the shows if her health worsens. The Sun reveals they might do a trial run to see if the singer feels up to the challenge.
