Céline Dion Suffers Harrowing Body Spasm In Vulnerable Moment From Powerful Documentary ‘I Am: Céline Dion’

Céline Dion is giving viewers a glimpse into her battle against stiff-person-syndrome. In her powerful, new Prime Video documentary, “I Am: Céline Dion,” the legendary singer opens up about living with the rare autoimmune neurological condition as she chronicles her life. One vulnerable scene shows the 56-year-old suffering a medical “crisis” on camera while receiving physical therapy. As her physical therapist and another member of her team help her, Céline is seen wailing while she communicates with them by squeezing their hands. After receiving nasal spray, she slowly regains control and is told by her PT that it’s likely she was “overstimulated” by the excitement from singing earlier; however, he also assures her that this is not the end of her journey. The scene ends with a powerful moment of the icon belting out in song, sounding as glorious as ever.
