- Celine Dion's Brave Battle
- She confidently sports a chic short pixie cut
- Celine's team has been sharing throwback videos
Celine Dion, who quietly battled Stiff Person Syndrome away from the public eye since last year, made a significant announcement in December 2022. The 54-year-old singer bravely disclosed her diagnosis with this rare illness, known for immobilizing individuals into "human statues" due to rigid body positions. This condition is so uncommon that it affects just 'one in one million people' worldwide. Following her announcement, Celine has been absent from social media.
Rediscovering Celine's musical journey
However, Celine's team has been sharing throwback videos on her Instagram page in recent months, the most recent of which features a captivating 2003 performance. The video provides a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her creative journey while working on her 2003 French album, '1 fille & 4 types' (translated as "1 girl & 4 guys"). This album was a collaborative effort with renowned writers and producers Jean-Jacques Goldman, Gildas Arzel, Eric Benzi, and Jacques Veneruso. These same talented individuals had previously contributed to her earlier, highly successful French records.
The accompanying caption for the video, posted in celebration of the album's 20th anniversary, reads: "In 2003, Celine reconnected with 3 songwriters and 1 artistic director: Jacques Veneruso, Erick Benzi, Gildas Arzel, and JJ Goldman. The result is 1 fille & 4 types. It was released on October 13, 2003. 20 years ago! Rediscover this album, link in bio - Team Celine."
