Celine Dion is said to be considering a recorded TV special for her long-awaited return to the stage.
The Think Twice hitmaker was forced to cancel her ‘Courage World Tour’ and Las Vegas residency after being diagnosed with stiff person syndrome, but reports suggest she’s readying a comeback.
“Celine is not giving up her desire to sing again,” insiders tell The Sun’s Bizarre column. “She has been working with voice coaches, band members and specialists for over six months now. She believes she could release a concert film featuring her playing her biggest hits.”
The superstar opened up about her condition in a trailer for the new documentary ‘I Am: Celine Dion’, in which she is seen breaking down in tears as she discusses how much she misses performing live.
“I’m working hard every day, but I have to admit, it’s been a struggle,” she confesses in a clip from the Prime Video documentary. “I miss it so much. The people, I miss them.”
Sharing her determination to get back on stage, the I’m Alive singer says: “If I can’t run, I’ll walk. If I can’t walk, I’ll crawl. And I won’t stop. I won’t stop.”
Reflecting on the “magic” that happens when she performs live, she adds: “It’s not hard to do a show, you know. It’s hard to cancel a show.”
Directed by Academy Award nominee Irene Taylor, ‘I Am: Celine Dion‘ offers “a raw and honest behind-the-scenes look at the iconic superstar’s struggle with a life-altering illness,” according to a press release.
‘I Am: Celine Dion’ debuts June 25 on Prime Video.
