Singer Céline Dion announced that she is rescheduling her spring 2023 shows and canceling eight of her concerts planned for next summer after being diagnosed with a "very rare neurological disorder."
The 54-year-old French Canadian singer, known for hits "Because You Loved Me," "My Heart Will Go On" and "The Power of Love," posted two videos on Instagram on Thursday – one in English and another in French – revealing that she suffers from "stiff-person syndrome."
"I've always been an open book and I wasn't ready to say anything before, but I'm ready now," Dion says in the video, growing visibly emotional. "I've been dealing with problems with my health for a long time and it's been really difficult for me to face these challenges and to talk about everything that I've been going through."
