Celine Dion Gives Emotional Performance on Eiffel Tower at the Olympics Opening Ceremony
Celine Dion closed the Olympics Opening Ceremony with a powerful rendition of Edith Piaf's 'Hymne A L'Amour.'
Variety broke the news earlier this week that Dion would be singing at the event, which marks the pop icon’s first time performing since her diagnosis with Stiff Person Syndrome in December 2022 forced her to step out of the spotlight. The outdoor setting could present technical challenges but the organizers have limited risks of glitches by pre-recording the voices of all performers, including Dion’s, per Le Figaro. Dion also previously sang an Edith Piaf song, “L’Hymne à l’Amour,” in Paris in 2015, to pay tribute to victims of tragic terrorist attack at the Bataclan.
