On June 25, Prime Video subscribers will be able to discover “I am: Céline Dion”, a documentary which will largely focus on the Canadian diva’s fight against stiff person syndrome.
We know: this degenerative neurological pathology prevents the 56-year-old artist from singing and going on stage. In an interview for NBC News, released this Friday, June 7, Céline Dion gives more details on this disease.

“It’s like someone is trying to strangle you,” she reveals at first. Before illustrating: “It’s as if someone were pushing your larynx, it’s in a spasm…” Comparing this sensation to a violent cramp, the singer continues: “I had broken ribs at one point , because sometimes the spasms are so severe that it can break some people. »

If this illness currently deprives her of concerts, it also prevents her from carrying out simple daily tasks. “When I point my feet, they can stay in that position. If I’m cooking, because I love cooking, my fingers and my hands are going to be in a certain position. »
Soon at the Olympics?
The release of this documentary still gives fans hope. Will Céline Dion take the opportunity to return to singing? For now, no one knows. Rumors announce a possible return of the star on stage during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games next July. His presence has not yet been made official.
