In tears, celine dion has announced that she is ill and that she is canceling her tour. The 54-year-old singer suffers from stiff person syndrome, a rare neurological condition that affects the central nervous system and causes progressive muscle stiffness, therefore also affecting the vocal cords. She suffers spasms that leave her paralyzed and even speechless.
The interpreter has gathered all the necessary strength to be able to announce the most difficult thing so far in her entire career: “It pains me to tell you that I won’t be ready to restart my tour.“, he comments in a statement with a broken voice and holding back tears.
This syndrome “affects approximately one in a million people,” it is incurable and degenerative. But, in addition, it causes muscle spasms that can block the muscles in rigid postures, preventing walking or even speaking. “It affects all aspects of my daily life, sometimes not allowing me to use my vocal cords to sing,” explains the singer.
The Canadian has for now postponed her spring 2023 concerts and has canceled eight of those scheduled for next summer, but his goal is to return. “I really hope to be able to see you again very soon,” she says hopefully in this statement.
