Great Concern For Celine Dion: Sister Claudette Reveals Her Current Condition

Oct 28, 2021

Céline Dion is a pinnacle name when it comes to the music industry. Her unique vocal tone and impressive singing abilities have helped the star catapult herself into a lifetime of fame and success, with a career spanning four decades. Dion’s musical style has grown over the years, while still staying pretty consistent to the genres of pop, soft rock and chanson, French songs that are lyrically-driven. Some of her most famous songs include “The Power of Love, “It’s All Coming Back To Me Now” and “My Heart Will Go On.”

Dion’s discography has shown the trials and tribulations of relationships, through the most beautiful love stories to the hardest moments of heartbreak. Facing some hardships herself, Dion has been able to immerse herself into her work and showcase a genuineness through the lyrics and melodies. The entertainer faced one of the most challenging heartaches she ever had to deal with when her husband, Rene Angélil, died in 2016.

The heartbreak Dion had to face when she lost her husband is something the singer has been struggling with since. Dion also lost her brother soon after her husband, and her mother passed away in 2020, which has taken a major toll on the singer. Because Dion has been dealing with her heartache for quite some time now, the physical effects have started to show. Dion was supposed to start her Vegas residency in November 2021, but she has now canceled her show due to illness, which has her fans worried about the current state of her health. In an interview in October 2021, her sister Claudette cleared up some concerns. 

Dion announced her illness to fans on her website as well as on social media in October 2021, where she revealed that due to unfortunate developments with her health, the opening of her Vegas residency, which was set for November 2021, would be delayed.

"I’m heartbroken by this," Dion wrote in her Instagram post caption. "My team and I have been working on our new show for the past eight months, and to not be able to open this November saddens me beyond words. My partners at Resorts World Las Vegas and AEG have been working around the clock to get this brand new state-of-the-art theatre ready, and it’s absolutely beautiful."

She added, "I feel so bad that I’m letting them down, and I’m especially sorry for disappointing all the fans who’ve been making their plans to come to Las Vegas. Now, I have to focus on getting better… I want to get through this as soon as I can."

In an interview with the French magazine “Paris Match,” Dion's sister Claudette revealed that her sister worked very hard for this comeback, so the cancellation is under no circumstances a “whim” as per Get To Text. Claudette also said that Dion stressed herself too much: "It’s always the same: She is terribly demanding about herself. Her body said 'stop.'"

Moreover, Claudette also told the magazine that Dion's age played a part in the illness. "The pre-menopause, the hormonal changes it brings are not helpful … I know that she is very disciplined and careful. But the body has its moods too. It’s good that she listens to it," she added.
