CELINE DION MAKES COMEBACK AT PARIS OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONY WITH STUNNING LIVE PERFORMANCE OF EDITH PIAF'S ‘HYMN TO LOVE'

Celine Dion overcame the challenge of stiff person syndrome at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics on Friday to give her first live performance in four years.

Dressed in a stunning white gown, she belted out Edith Piaf’s classic song Hymne de l’Amour (Hymn To Love) as the final number of the ceremony against the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower.

It marked the end of an extravagant 2024 Olympics opening ceremony unfolding along a six kilometer (4.5 mile) stretch of the River Seine under the pouring rain.

Dion, whose life has been severely impacted by stiff person syndrome, has not performed in four years, but has often spoken about her determination to get back on stage in the future.
