An insider confirmed, “It’s basically a done deal. She’s doing it.”
Dion initially planned to start her residency at Resorts World in November 2021, but health issues forced her to cancel the gig. Katy Perry stepped in to fill her spot, and Carrie Underwood is currently performing there, with her run set to end this November.
Despite battling Stiff-Person Syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes painful muscle stiffness and spasms, Dion's passion for performing remains undiminished.
As highlighted in her documentary, 'I Am: Celine Dion,' the singer is determined to return to the stage. A source close to Dion stated, “She’s prepared to power through it. It won’t stop her from performing.”
Fans can expect an unforgettable experience as she takes the stage once again. The upcoming residency is anticipated to be shorter than her previous long-term engagements at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
In addition to her Las Vegas residency, Dion is scheduled to perform at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, where she will sing 'La Vie en Rose' with Lady Gaga, earning $2 million for the performance. This comeback, driven entirely by her love for performing, signifies a significant moment in Dion’s illustrious career.
With her recent major press tour for her documentary and the upcoming Las Vegas shows, Dion is eager to reconnect with her fans and continue her legacy of spectacular performances.
