Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Celine Dion is one of the most beloved singers of our time. And for the last few years, she has not been able to entertain her fans because of an illness.

The singer suffers from Stiff Person Syndrome, and it makes it painful for her to perform. Even though she really wants to.

So in the upcoming Prime Video documentary, which was filmed over a year, we will see what she has been going through.

“This last couple of years has been such a challenge for me, the journey from discovering my condition to learning how to live with and manage it, but not to let it define me,” said Dion. “As the road to resuming my performing career continues, I have realized how much I have missed it, of being able to see my fans. During this absence, I decided I wanted to document this part of my life, to try to raise awareness of this little-known condition, to help others who share this diagnosis.”

The doc will stream later this year.

In April 2022, Celine Dion postponed her tour because of a debilitating illness. That rare neurological disease is known as Stiff-Person Syndrome.

Since then, we haven’t gotten an update on her condition. But, today, we did.

With a sense of tremendous disappointment, Celine Dion’s Courage World Tour today announced the cancellation of all remaining dates currently on sale for 2023 and 2024. As the world has emerged from the pandemic, Celine has continued to be treated for a diagnosed medical condition that prevents her from performing. Celine is working hard on her recovery, but at this time is unable to successfully prepare for and perform the remainder of the tour, which was scheduled to run from August 26, 2023 in Amsterdam through October 4, 2023 in Helsinki; then continuing from March 6, 2024 in Prague through April 22, 2024 in London. We do have every hope that someday soon, Celine will be able to come to all of these cities in Europe to perform for her amazing fans, but that time simply is not now.

“I’m so sorry to disappoint all of you once again. I’m working really hard to build back my strength, but touring can be very difficult even when you’re 100%. It’s not fair to you to keep postponing the shows, and even though it breaks my heart, it’s best that we cancel everything now until I’m really ready to be back on stage again. I want you all to know, I’m not giving up… and I can’t wait to see you again!” said Celine.’

Celine had completed the first 52 dates of the Courage World Tour in North America before the pandemic emerged and paused the tour in March 2020. In early 2021, when the entertainment industry was still working under tight COVID restrictions, Celine filmed her first motion picture, Love Again, co-starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan. Since then, Celine has revealed that she has been diagnosed with a rare condition called Stiff Person’s Syndrome, which causes severe and persistent muscle spasms, and which has prevented her from performing. Celine’s medical team continues to evaluate and treat the condition.

I hope that they get it under control soon, so that she can go back to doing what she loves to do and we can watch and hear her do it.

Celine Dion was supposed to begin her European tour in June, but she announced today in a heartfelt video that she has to postpone or cancel those dates. That is because she is still suffering from health issues and cannot give her 100% at a show.

The singer knows her fans deserve her all, and as soon as her body is free of spasms and her doctors tell her she can perform again, she will.

Hopefully, Dion’s body will continue to improve, and she will be back on the road, making fans happy again soon.

If you are on TikTok, then you have seen someone go big to Céline Dion’s It’s All Coming Back to Me Now. I guess someone finally showed it to Mandy Moore, and she was like, I so have to do this. So the actress got her This Is Us co-star’s Sterling K. Brown and Jon Huertas to help her out, and they did. They made the singer look like she is ready for a Vegas residency.

As I watched this, I was screaming, “you go, girl!” And she did!

I am so happy they let go and have some fun between breaks because this season is more depressing than years past. I was ugly crying throughout all of Tuesday’s episode. But then again, I am PMSing and missing my parents.

Céline Dion was supposed to go on tour in March, but she announced this weekend she is cancelling those dates due to recovering from a recent undisclosed health condition.

“I was really hoping that I’d be good to go by now, but I suppose I just have to be more patient and follow the regimen that my doctors are prescribing. There’s a lot of organizing and preparation that goes into our shows, and so we have to make decisions today which will affect the plans two months down the road. I’ll be so glad to get back to full health, as well as all of us getting past this pandemic, and I can’t wait to be back on stage again. Meanwhile, I’ve been very touched by all the words of encouragement that everyone’s been sending to me on social media. I feel your love and support and it means the world to me. –

Hopefully, she will be better soon because we all need her powerful voice to make her feel better. The same way our voices at her concerts make her feel better.
