In the trailer for her new documentary, Celine Dion cried because of her health problems.
The star, who is 56 years old, was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome in 2022 and has been dealing with it ever since.
The trailer for Celine’s new documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, came out today. The film comes out on June 25.
While she wasn’t performing, the singer filmed behind the scenes with Amazon to talk about her health problems.
The nervous system is affected by Stiff Person Syndrome, which can lead to painful spasms that get worse over time.
In the preview for I Am: Celine Dion, the singer cried about her health and said she would crawl to her shows.
“I’ve been diagnosed with a very rare neurological disorder and I wasn’t ready to say anything before,” she said.
“But I’m ready now.”
In the trailer, there were several shots of Celine taking medicine while the sound of a 911 call could be heard.
Celine broke down in tears when she said she had to cancel shows because she was sick.
She said through tears, “It’s not hard to do a show, it’s hard to cancel a show.”
Although I work hard every day, I must say that it’s been hard. “I miss it so much, and I miss the people.”
“I’ll walk if I can’t run.” I’ll crawl if I can’t walk. “But I’m not going to stop,” she said.
WHAT IT SAYS
Celine first told people that she had the illness in 2022, when she had to cancel a few concerts because of it.
It was she who told her fans she had a rare autoimmune condition and then she stepped out of the spotlight.
Today is Stiff Person Syndrome Day, and Celine posted a picture on Instagram of herself with her three sons, René-Charles, Nelson, and Eddy. She shares these sons with her late husband René Angélil.
She wrote in the post’s caption, “Trying to get over this autoimmune disorder has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but I’m still determined to one day get back on stage and live as normally as possible.”
“I’m so thankful for all the love and support from my family, friends, team, and you all!”
To everyone around the world who has been affected by SPS, I want to send my hope and support. You can do it, I promise! We can do it! She ended with, “Love Celine xx.”
People don’t know much about her syndrome, but her documentary shows how hard it is for her to deal with it.
At this point, there is no known cure, and Celine wants to start performing again.
The Amazon page for the show said that the documentary was a close look into Celine’s private battle.
“I Am: Celine Dion gives us a raw and honest behind-the-scenes look at the iconic superstar’s struggle with a life-altering illness,” it said.
“Serving as a love letter to her fans, this inspirational documentary highlights the music that has guided her life while also showcasing the resilience of the human spirit.”
