It has been a year since Celine Dion painfully called off her Courage world tour due to Stiff Person’s Syndrome, which affected her ability to sing and move. The award-winning singer was forced to take a break, as she could hardly balance her failing health with work like always.
According to recent updates, the 56-year-old is set to make a comeback via a Las Vegas residency to begin later this year or in 2025. True to her promise to get back on stage regardless of what it takes, Celine has been in talks with Las Vegas’ Resorts World to begin performing again soon.
Celine Dion is not giving up on her career
In the past months, Celine has proven to be an example of determination as she refused to give up on her career. She was left with no choice but to hold off on her initial Las Vegas residency in October 2021 due to muscle spasms; however, Celine is ready to dazzle her fans this time with her sonorous voice.

Although Celine herself has yet to officially announce the upcoming residency, sources say it will only last a short period and leading sports and live entertainment company, AEG will be producing. Insiders have also noted that the new update is entirely Celine’s idea, birthed from her desire to express herself again.
The reality of SPS
Stiff Person Syndrome is a rare disease affecting only one or two people in a million, with women being more susceptible. Thankfully, Celine has used her platform to show the world what the debilitating condition looks like via social media, interviews and her recently released Prime Video documentary, I Am: Celine Dion.
