"I Am: Céline Dion"
Automatically memorized draft
Singer Céline Dion (56), who suffers from a rare autoimmune disease, was celebrated on Monday evening (local time) at the New York premiere of the documentary "I Am: Céline Dion" on Monday evening (local time).
The singer attended the event alongside her eldest son René-Charles Angélil (23). In a speech, the mother of three was visibly moved as she thanked her fans for their support.
"Love letter for everyone"
"This is a love letter for each and every one of you," said Dion tearfully about the film project. She hopes to be back on stage soon.
Neurological disease
The Canadian-born singer announced in December 2022 that she had been diagnosed with stiff person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder.
She recently said in a TV interview that the disease can cause muscle spasms anywhere in the body, causing her hands or feet to freeze, for example. She has problems walking and singing. The "My Heart Will Go On" singer had to cancel all the dates of her "Courage World Tour" in Europe planned for 2023 and 2024.
Insight into Dion's life
With the documentary by director Irene Taylor, Dion wants to give an insight into her life and draw attention to the little-known disease. She uses physiotherapy, vocal training and medication to combat the disease.
The streaming provider Prime Video is releasing the film on June 25. With more than 250 million albums sold worldwide, Dion is one of the most successful musicians of her generation.
