Since the singer seemed to have lost a considerable amount of weight, magazines have been covering Céline Dion’s health.
Her admirers expressed worry, claiming she no longer looks like the person she used to be. However, she insisted that she ought to be left alone.
The singer, who was born in Canada, said to those who were critiquing her appearance in an interview recently “If I like it, I don’t want to talk about it. Don’t bother. Don’t take a picture. If you like it, I’ll be there. If you don’t, leave me alone.”

However, it was recently revealed by one of her representatives that Dion experiences muscle spasms, which interfere with her performance on stage. Dion was consequently forced to postpone her concerts in Las Vegas from November of last year to January 19 to February 5, 2022, in addition to the pandemic that altered the path of many people’s lives.
“Celine has been experiencing severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing,” the statement read.
“Her medical team continues to evaluate and treat her. However, the symptoms she is experiencing are prohibiting her from participating in the ongoing rehearsals for the new show.”
The singer herself shared her sadness on Instagram about the postponed concert dates as well as her ongoing health problems.

“Hello, everyone. I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reach out to you. I miss you all so much and I can’t wait to be on stage talking to you in person,” Dion said in the video.
“As you know, I’ve always been an open book and I wasn’t ready to say anything before, but I’m ready now. 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.
“Recently, I’ve been diagnosed with a very rare neurological disorder called the stiff-person syndrome, which affects something like one in a million people. While we’re still learning about this rare condition, we now know this is what’s been causing all of the spasms that I’ve been having. Unfortunately, these spasms affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes causing difficulties when I walk and not allowing me to use my vocal chords to sing the way I’m used to.”

“I’m working hard with my sports medicine therapist every day to build back my strength and my ability to perform again, but I have to admit it’s been a struggle,” she said. “All I know is singing. It’s what I’ve done all my life and it’s what I love to do the most.
“I miss you so much. I miss seeing all of you, being on the stage performing for you. I always give a hundred percent when I do my shows, but my condition is now allowing me to give you that right now,” she continued.
Dion concluded the video saying: “I want to thank you so much for your encouraging wishes and love and support on my social media. This means a lot to me.
“Take care of yourselves. Be well. I love you guys so much and I really hope I can see you again real soon.”

Dion has a long history with Las Vegas, which she considers to be her home. Her history with “Sin City” began in 2003 when she embarked on a four-year residency in Las Vegas, which proved to be a great success, bringing in over $385 million.
Billboard reports that after a few years, Dion made a comeback to the Las Vegas stage for a residency at Ceasar’s Palace, where she performed 1,141 times, breaking the previous record.
She also owns the records for the two all-time best-selling residencies.

Dion had previously stated that her tour would start in May 2022 due to health concerns, but the dates have since been further postponed. She postponed her residency in Las Vegas at the same time.
She made $680 million from her two previous Las Vegas residencies alone. According to reports, she has a net worth of approximately $800 million, with revenue of $37 million in 2019.
Based on her earnings for the Celine residency show, it has been reported that the singer lost approximately $70 million in revenue due to her absence from the stage.
Aside from that, she is content that her vacation allowed her to spend more time with her kids
My son and his wife shamed me for wearing red lipstick. I decided to teach them a lesson

The Spark: A Family Dinner Gone Wrong
Edith had always been a vibrant woman, a beacon of confidence and style, even at 75. Her red lipstick was her signature, a mark of her vivacious personality. But that evening, as she prepared for a family dinner, she had no idea that her choice of makeup would ignite a firestorm.

As she carefully applied her favorite shade of red, she felt a sense of nostalgia and pride. This lipstick had seen her through countless milestones, from job interviews to romantic dates with her late husband. It was more than just makeup; it was a symbol of her enduring spirit.
Her son arrived early, catching Edith in the act. With a sneer, he commented, “Mom, you look like a desperate old clown trying to cling to your youth. It’s embarrassing.”
The words hit her like a slap. She paused, the lipstick trembling in her hand. Before she could respond, her daughter-in-law, with a smug smile, chimed in, “Oh, I agree. Red lipstick is not for older people. I think you should stick to what other people are doing.”

Edith’s heart pounded in her chest. The audacity of their remarks left her momentarily speechless. But then, a surge of defiance surged through her. “Honey, why don’t you mind your own business,” she snapped, her voice steady and cold.
Her daughter-in-law looked taken aback, her confidence momentarily shattered. “Sorry, Edith, we just don’t want you to look like a clown,” she muttered, clearly unprepared for Edith’s retaliation.
Her son, trying to regain control of the situation, added with a smirk, “Okay, Mom, enjoy the circus.” His wife let out another laugh, and they both walked away, leaving Edith in a storm of emotions.

From Hurt to Rage: The Turning Point
For a few minutes, Edith stood there, her reflection in the mirror a painful reminder of their cruel words. She felt a deep sadness, the kind that comes from betrayal by those you love most. But as she sat in the corner, the sadness began to morph into something else: rage.
How dare they mock her? How dare they try to strip her of her dignity and individuality? She had spent her entire life building her confidence, refusing to conform to societal expectations, and now, her own family was trying to tear her down.
Edith knew she had to act. This wasn’t just about red lipstick; it was about respect and standing up for herself. She decided to give them a lesson they would never forget.
The Plan: A Week of Preparation
Over the next week, Edith meticulously planned her revenge. She reached out to a few trusted friends and even roped in her neighbor, Mrs. Jenkins, a woman of similar spirit and age. Together, they devised a scheme that was both subtle and impactful.
First, Edith decided to host a grand dinner at her house, inviting not only her son and his wife but also other family members and friends. The guest list was carefully curated to include people who respected her and those who could influence her son and his wife.
She spent days preparing, ensuring everything was perfect. She cooked her son’s favorite dishes, set the table with her finest china, and decorated the house with beautiful flowers. But the centerpiece of her plan was her appearance. On the day of the dinner, Edith wore a stunning red dress and, of course, her signature red lipstick.

The Showdown: A Lesson in Respect
As the guests arrived, Edith greeted them with warmth and grace, her red lips a bold statement of her defiance. Her son and his wife were among the last to arrive, their expressions quickly turning sour upon seeing her.
The dinner began smoothly, with lively conversations and laughter filling the room. But Edith had a surprise in store. As dessert was served, she stood up to make a toast.
“Thank you all for coming,” she began, her voice strong and clear. “I’ve always believed in living life to the fullest and embracing who you are, no matter what others think.”
She glanced at her son and his wife, who were shifting uncomfortably in their seats. “Last week, I was told that I should stop wearing my favorite red lipstick because it’s not appropriate for my age. But I believe that confidence and style know no age.”
The room fell silent, all eyes on Edith. “So tonight, I want to celebrate all of us who refuse to let society dictate how we should look or act. To those who embrace their true selves and live with confidence and grace.”
Her friends and family erupted in applause, many raising their glasses in agreement. Her son and his wife looked mortified, their earlier smugness replaced by embarrassment.
Edith smiled, her red lipstick gleaming under the chandelier. She had made her point loud and clear. Age was just a number, and no one had the right to dictate how she should live her life.
Aftermath: A Changed Dynamic
In the weeks that followed, the dynamic between Edith, her son, and his wife changed. There were no more snide comments or mocking laughs. Her son even apologized, admitting he had been out of line. His wife, too, seemed to have learned her lesson, treating Edith with newfound respect.
Edith continued to wear her red lipstick proudly, knowing that she had stood up for herself and set an example for others. She had shown that age was not a barrier to confidence and self-expression, and in doing so, she had reclaimed her dignity and respect.
Her bold stand had not only silenced her critics but also inspired others to embrace their true selves, proving that sometimes, the most powerful lessons come from the most unexpected places.
