Celine Dion, a Canadian goddess and national treasure, was shocked late last year that her condition deteriorated and she was almost paralyzed, unable to get out of bed to walk, and the scheduled world tour could only be stopped.
Now after two months of recuperation, Celine Dion issued another statement on Saturday (January 15), revealing that her health was still poor and she had to cancel the world tour of Vancouver, Los Angeles and other North American performances.
Celine Dion tweeted: "I really hope that everything is okay now, but I guess I need more patience and follow the doctor's instructions." ”
Celine Dion looks forward to a healthy performance on stage in the future, and hopes that everyone can survive the epidemic, and is grateful for the support and encouragement given by the outside world during this period.
Celine Dion's recent weight loss is worrying
Celine Dion is scheduled to tour 16 concerts in North American cities such as Denver, Los Angeles and Vancouver, Canada, between March 9 and April 22 this year.
However, all North American tour plans have been cancelled. In a subsequent statement, the agency also stressed that the cancellation of the performance was due to "her recovery period longer than she originally expected".
As soon as the news came out, the fans felt quite shocked and regretful, and they were also worried about her physical condition.
It seems that the persistent muscle spasms that have been bothering her are really not easy to heal...
On Twitter, many netizens have posted articles to cheer her up, looking forward to her returning to the stage as soon as possible.
"We pray for you and look forward to your speedy recovery!" Hope to see you still kill on stage like you used to! Take care of yourself! Love you!! ”
"The most important thing is to take care of your body, and we will wait patiently for you."
"We love you and get back to health soon."
However, some netizens are worried that the goddess has rested for several months and still cannot come back, and her physical condition may not be optimistic.
In January 2016, Celine Dion's husband and brother died of cancer.
Since then, she has been haggard in the camera.
In recent years, it has deteriorated,
In the early years, she was round and even slightly plump, and her body was sexy, and she gradually disappeared.
Now she can really be said to be skinny to the bone,
Many media have even directly sent out photos of Celine Dion's body over the years,
The changes are really shocking,
Her cheeks are sunken and her face is wrinkled, and she is only 54 years old.
Slim to no sense of beauty
The bones of the chest are clearly visible
Some media outlets even refer to her simply as a "walking skeleton man."
Even carefully groomed hard photos can feel chilling.
Last October, Celine Dion suddenly posted a long post on Instagram saying that due to health problems, all concerts held before March 2022 had to be cancelled.
"This decision broke my heart." She wrote, "My team and I have been working around the clock for our concerts for 8 months, and not being able to take the stage in November has left my disappointment in words. ”
Immediately after, her team issued a press release revealing that Celine Dion suffered from severe and persistent muscle cramps that prevented her from performing on stage.
November news said Celine Dion's health had deteriorated further and she was bedridden and unable to move or walk.
A friend of hers revealed that the pain in Celine Dion's legs and feet nearly paralyzed her. She was very weak and had lost a lot of weight and couldn't get out of bed.
The disease may take a long time to recover. If the condition does not improve, it may take a few months or even a year off.
Sources say Celine Dion weighs just 95 pounds. "She eats badly, works out with her coach 7 days a week and dances non-stop."
Rumors flew everywhere, and the fans' hearts were broken, and they prayed for her peace.
However, at that time, Celine Dion was still very optimistic about the disease, and she was strong, and she also sent an old song to report safety:
Don't give up on your beliefs
Those who believe in it can be loved
Stage, waiting for me to kill back!
Later, Celine Dion's sister personally debunked the rumors, saying that Celine Dion's condition was actually not as serious as everyone thought.
"What happened to her was very sad, but not serious, otherwise she would have told me. Celine often confided in me about her problems and would ask me for advice when anything was wrong. I know she's in a good mental state. ”
Celine Dion has indeed always been strong.
Born in 1968 in Quebec, Canada, the world-renowned Celine Dion began singing at the age of 5, debuted at the age of 12, released her first album at the age of 13 and became a hit, won the best female singer in France at the age of 15, and won the European championship at the age of 19.
Her singing voice is ethereal and atmospheric, as if it can penetrate the soul and point directly to the human heart.
Celine Dion has set numerous world records in the music scene, winning the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest, 5 Grammy Awards, 12 World Music Awards, 7 American Music Awards, 8 American Billboards, 20 Juno Awards and many other music awards.
She has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide and set a record of more than 30 million copies for two consecutive albums, and is known as the best-selling female singer of albums worldwide.
The numbers are always a little bit boring, and to say how high Celine Dion's status in the music scene is, check out the media interview with another diva, Adele.
When the reporter asked her, "What is the proudest object you've ever had," Adele respectfully held out a picture frame.
Carefully studded with a frame, it was actually a piece of chewing gum that Celine Dion had vomited.
Adele said, "She's my idol." ”
With a super fan like Adele, Celine Dion can definitely be called an idol of idols...
However, all the glory and success in her career are not as legendary as her love.
At the age of 12, Celine met René Angélil at the recommendation of her brother, who decided to act as her agent as soon as she heard her sing.
In order to help her record her first album, Rennie, who was nearly 40 years old at the time, mortgaged his only property, and the two gradually fell in love with each other in their work day and night.
During this time, Celine Dion's career began all the way and was hailed as the "most talented singer on the planet".
On December 17, 1994, 26-year-old Celine Dion married Rennie despite her mother's objections, a difference of 26 years, but this did not prevent two attractive souls from coming together.
At that time, her career was on the rise, and she did not even sign a prenuptial agreement with her husband.
In 1997, after presenting the ending song "My Heart Will Go On" for the movie Titanic, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture Song, Celine Dion became the diva of the world pop music scene.
Five years after their marriage, when Celine Dion's career was in full swing, Rennie was diagnosed with throat cancer.
In order to take care of Rennie, Celine announced that she would quit the music scene indefinitely and conceived herself with her husband's frozen sperm, leaving the crystallization of their love.
After that, Rennie miraculously recovered, and Celine returned to the peak of her career.
In the summer of 2014, after Rennie was diagnosed with cancer for the second time, Celine Dion again postponed almost all of her acting career, focusing on her husband and family until Rennie finally left her in 2016.
After Rennie's death, the strong Celine Dion quickly returned to the stage, "I try to tell my children that life is full of sickness and misfortune. But you can't keep crying and crying, all the time withering."
She chose to continue on the music scene and complete her residency concert in Las Vegas.
In October 2017, just two days after the world-shattering casino shooting, when many stars and performance groups cancelled their original performance plans, Celine Dion was determined to return to the stage of Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
Celine Dion said the decision to take the stage was both to pay tribute to all the victims and injured in the shooting, but also to "let these families in grief know that we are all supporting them and that we will do our best to help them through this difficult time." "
She also announced that all the proceeds from the day's singing will be donated to the families of the victims of the shooting.
In 2019, she bid farewell to Las Vegas, where she had been resident for 16 years, returned to her hometown of Quebec, and began a new journey in the music world and life.
On November 15, Courage/Courage, a new album featuring Flying Alone, was released worldwide.
This is Celine Dion's 6-year-old English album, and after the pain of losing a loved one, the music diva has started again and bravely moved forward with the latest album announcement.
On the album cover, she seems to be reborn from the fire.
The new album "Courage" is the first time that Rennie has not participated in the production. Celine Dion said in an interview with CBS:
"When I lost Rennie, he wanted me back on stage, and he wanted to know that I was still practicing my passion. I want to prove to him that I'm good, that we're good, and that we'll be OK. ”
"Courage is exactly how I feel right now.
She also named her tour "Courage", showing that after experiencing the storms of life, she should be rejuvenated and full of courage for life, the future and love.
Celine Dion says she wants to tell people who feel lost in life not to be afraid: "Courage is the foundation of human existence, everyone has it." ”
She said: "There are always some times in life, you will be forced to grow, to know yourself, to find confidence, to find the meaning of existence, this is the power of courage." 」 ”
Finally, may this man who has given us courage, healing, love and warmth with his songs countless times,
This time, don't be knocked down by fate,
Sincerely hope that Celine Dion will recover soon,
Back on the stage she loves most.
