SICK CELINE DION CANCELS HER CONCERTS

IN EUROPE UNTIL APRIL 2024

The Quebec star, suffering from "Stiff-Person Syndrom" (stiff person syndrome, SPR), a rare neurological pathology against which she "continues her treatment", had already announced in December that she was canceling or postponing the concerts planned for Europe between February and July 2023.

"Unfortunately, these spasms affect my everyday life on many levels. I sometimes have a lot of difficulty walking and I can't always use my vocal cords to sing as I would like," she explained then.

"I'm so sorry to disappoint you once again. I'm working very hard to regain my strength, but tours can be demanding and difficult, even when you're at 100%, says the artist on his Instagram account. It would be unfair to you to postpone the concerts once again, and although it breaks my heart, it is better to cancel everything now, until I am really ready to go back on stage. "I want you to know that I'm not giving up... and above all, I can't wait to see you again!", She adds.

Stiff-person syndrome (SPS) or stiff-person syndrome is a rare neurological disease. This autoimmune disease - caused by a malfunction of the immune system - results in muscle rigidity in the trunk or limbs. She remains relatively unknown. It was first identified in 1956.

After several months of rumors about her state of health, Celine Dion had come out of silence in a video published on Thursday, December 8, 2022 on social networks. "I sometimes have a lot of trouble walking and I can't use my vocal cords to sing as I would like," she explained, sobs in her voice.

Celine Dion's last concert dates back to March 2020, in Newark (United States). His world tour had been interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic. She could never resume.
