Celine Dion ended off the Opening Ceremonies at the Paris 2024 Olympics in perhaps the most epic way possible.
Dion, who had last performed at the Prudential Centre in March of 2020, appeared on the Eiffel Tower to help send off what was an epic Opening Ceremonies showing.

The 56-year-old singer, who has been very open about her battle with stiff-person syndrome, wowed not only those watching live but also on social media with her terrific performance of Edith Piaf’s hit song “Hymne á l’amour.”

The Opening Ceremonies are kicking off what should be a great 16 action-packed days in Paris. Canada will have a total of 337 athletes competing in the Olympic Games, plenty of whom were part of today’s Opening Ceremonies festival.
Seine-sational!

While it will be a lot to live up to, fans around the world will hope that the athletes competing at this year’s Olympic Games can put up as good of a show as what was just delivered today.
