In a very Canadian move, Celine Dion made her first public appearance in over three years after she was spotted in attendance during an NHL game. According to Billboard, the legendary singer went out in sunny Los Angeles to watch her beloved Montreal Canadiens take on the local Las Vegas Golden Knights. Accompanying her to the big game were her sons, René-Charles and twins Eddy and Nelson.

In true icon fashion, Celine Dion hung around after the game to chat with her favorite team, offering up some thoughts on how to take care of themselves while playing such a heavy-contact sport.

Celine Dion Reveals Her Stiff-Person Syndrome Diagnosis

It’s been almost a full year since Celine Dion went public with her diagnosis of Stiff-Person Syndrome, an illness that has held her back from her decades-long career in the spotlight. In short, the affliction causes its victims to have muscle spasms that are beyond their control. The extreme condition is said to affect somewhere around one in a million individuals making it all the more shocking that it befell the Canadian singer.

Concerning her fans with the heavy news, Celine Dion offered up any and all information that she could with her initial announcement. She admitted that she had been struggling with health issues “for a long time” and that she hadn’t wanted to go public with the news until it was something that she absolutely had to do. For her, the diagnosis was especially heartbreaking as it meant that she wouldn’t be able to perform to the high caliber that she held for herself, which also meant that she would need to axe her highly-anticipated 2023 tour, moving a handful of dates to 2024.

A Quebec native, Celine Dion has been entertaining stadiums of fans for decades with her notable voice and pure talent. Boasting a lengthy list of albums both in French and English, the performer completely took over the world when she performed the song “My Heart Will Go On” for James Cameron’s box office hit, Titanic. The tune quickly rose to prominence and is still a classic today, with many associating Dion’s name with the film and its epic power ballad.

These days, the singer, multi-Grammy Award-winning artist, and mother has kept her personal life personal and sticks close to her home and away from the prying eyes and flashing cameras of the paparazzi. While she continues to battle Stiff-Person Syndrome, it’s wonderful to see that Celine Dion is taking a step forward and enjoying time out in public with her sons while cheering on her country’s national sport.

While we wish the talented vocalist plenty of healing and positive vibes, we also hope to see much more of her over the upcoming days and are cheering her on for her next country-crossing tour or full-time residency.
