This Sunday, Claudette Dion will make an appearance in the documentary Red line: Céline Dion, the iron ladywhich will be broadcast in France. The show aims to shed light on the rather eventful last years of the singer from Charlemagne.
In an excerpt from the interview in question, accessible on the social network TikTok, Claudette makes moving confessions, while she claims not to have understood at the time that what overwhelmed Céline Dion was indeed one of the warning signs of stiff person syndrome, which the “My Heart Will Go On” singer suffers from today. She reveals:
« She said to me: “Claudette, please come help me, come help me.” She couldn't put her boots back on because her foot was twisted. She couldn't have control. I saw it, I'm not making this up. She was already having small twitches. The rest of us said: “Well! It's no big deal, we also get up at night and have a kind of cramp in our calves, because hey, we danced all evening. We said to ourselves: “It's no problem, it's a muscle. It's not vital, it doesn't matter. Calm down, relax. »
This rare disease, which inflicts painful muscle spasms on those affected, affects one in a million people, hence the vagueness surrounding the genesis of the symptoms. It is with this in mind that Céline revealed herself like never before, last spring, in the poignant documentary I Am: Céline Dion, in order to shed light on the condition which has now become part of her daily life. We invite you to discover what we thought about it.
Since then, the diva has slowly returned to the spotlight, after a forced break caused by illness. This was also illustrated this summer, in the middle of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Enough to earn him an imitation in the next Bye Bye? We predict that yes…
