The official opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris was scheduled for Friday, July 26. This is the most important event of the year, which takes place every four years. No wonder that athletes have been preparing mainly for it this season.
The French did everything to ensure that the aforementioned opening of the Olympics went as well as possible. For this reason, there were, of course, artistic performances. Lady Gaga sang first, and Celine Dion closed the four-hour show by returning to the stage.
Let us recall that one of the world's greatest singers has been battling an illness for a long time, significantly affecting her artistic activities. In December 2022, Dion revealed that she had been diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome, a progressive autoimmune disorder.
The Canadian singer performed a song by the iconic artist Edith Piaf. She impressed the fans with her performance, and she received virtually all positive reviews.
Celine Dion did it for the second time
Thus, Dion has her second appearance at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. It is worth recalling that in 1996, she appeared at the start of the games in Atlanta and sang a song titled The Power of The Dream.
For this reason, the official social media profile of the Olympic Games shared a recording of Dion's performance in the United States. And now history has come full circle, and her voice can be heard again.
