Hold onto your berets, because it looks like the Eiffel Tower isn’t the only thing that’ll be lighting up Paris for the 2024 Olympics! The legendary Celine Dion might just be belting out some notes that could crack the Arc de Triomphe!
Our favorite vocal powerhouse, the 56-year-old Celine Dion, along with her son Rene-Charles Angelil, who at 23 is likely still reeling from inheriting her killer genes, were spotted gliding into the Royal Monceau Hotel on Tuesday afternoon (July 23). Picture this: a sea of fans so dense you’d think the hotel was giving away free baguettes. And Celine? She’s out there shaking hands and signing autographs like she’s running for mayor of Paris!
Now, the rumor mill is grinding harder than ever, suggesting that Celine is gearing up for a jaw-dropping, show-stopping return to the stage at the Olympics Opening Ceremony. And get this – her paycheck for crooning just one tune? A cool $2 million. That’s right, she’s getting paid in enough euros to buy a lifetime supply of poutine! TMZ, our trusty bearer of celebrity secrets, spilled the beans, adding that the Olympics will also cover the travel and expenses for her entire entourage. One insider spilled, “They’re paying a ton of money. Ridiculous amount.” Well, if there’s one thing we know, it’s that Celine is worth every euro.
This will be Celine’s first public performance since she hit the pause button on her career due to her Stiff Person Syndrome diagnosis back in December 2022. She had a rough go of it, even saying she came close to singing her last note. But now, like a phoenix rising from the ashes – or more aptly, like a diva emerging from a glitter explosion – she’s ready to take the stage once more.
Paris, get ready! Celine’s coming to town, and the City of Lights is about to get a whole lot brighter!
