Celine Dions struggle with stiff-person syndrome
Everyone knows who C\xe9line Dion is. You can\u2019t forget her incredible power ballads, her iconic outfits at the Met Gala or her quirky conversations with journalists and fellow singers alike.
But what fans didn\u2019t know for years was C\xe9line was suffering from stiff-person syndrome. It was causing her body to tense up and spasm, making it hard to use her famous vocal chords. She went public with the diagnosis a year and a half ago, and then stepped away from showbiz and the public eye.
Now, she\u2019s opening up about her story and how stiff-person syndrome has affected her life in a new documentary. Ahead of its release, we hear from CBC\u2019s Adrienne Arsenault, who got an exclusive interview with C\xe9line and tells us what she learned about Celine\u2019s life and her plans to sing in the future.
