PARIS, FRANCE: Celine Dion is not letting her days go to waste, spending every moment connecting with her fans in Paris. The 58-year-old singer kept the festivities going even after her show ended on Friday, September 18.

Celine Dion climbs barefoot onto car and performs after Paris residency show

The incident happened outside a Paris hotel after Dion's concert at the Paris La Defense Arena in nearby Nanterre, France. The short video has gone viral and is creating a lot of buzz on social media.

Dion hopped onto a parked black vehicle, removed her slippers, and sat on the hood with her legs crossed in front of a crowd. Upon hearing her 1995 track 'Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore,' which translates to 'So That You'll Love Me Again,' she began singing along.



At one point, she could be seen lying across the hood of the car and flopping over face down before laughing and getting up. She continued to clap, dance, and sing along with her fans before bidding adieu with a hand-heart gesture.

The 'My Heart Will Go On' singer was dressed casually. She opted for a loose-fitting top and a lightweight jacket, with her hair pulled back into a low bun.
