Celine Dion speaks on what she would be remembered for

By Taiwo Okanlawon

Renowned Canadian singer, Celine Dion, has said she would be remembered for her classic hits even if she stopped singing in the near future.

The 56-year-old ailing vocalist revealed this in a recent interview with Smooth Radio.

“I think if you’re part of one classic in your life, if you’re fortunate enough to have one classic in your life, you can be remembered for the rest of your journey if you want to stop singing tomorrow,” she said.

“And I don’t wanna sound pretentious saying this but… I think I’m all set!”

Celine Dion made her first public appearance in recent times at the 2024 Grammy Awards ceremony.

But she made her comeback performance in four years at the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, amid her battle with stiff-person’s syndrome.

Celine Dion recently stated that her Stiff Person Syndrome feels like she’s “being strangled”.

She added that that she often suffers from cramps and even had broken some ribs.

Celine Dion first hinted at her health woes in January when she cancelled the North American dates of her Courage world tour from March 9 to April 22, 2022.

The announcement came three months after she had to cancel the start of her Las Vegas comeback residency over the same health issue.

Celine has become known as ‘Queen Of Las Vegas’ because of her enormously successful residencies there.

After retiring her famous Caesars Palace residency in 2019, she was coaxed back to Sin City to perform at the new Resorts World on the Strip.

Some of Celine Dion’s classics include ‘Love Can Move Mountains’ (1992), ‘The Power of Love’ (1993), ‘My Heart Will Go On’ (1997), ‘I’m Your Angel’ (1998), and ‘I’m Alive’ (2000).
