Macron: Celine Dion singing at Olympics would be great

“It seems to have arrived in Paris, it’s fantastic!” Macron told France 2.

“I would be very happy if I could be present at the opening ceremony, like all our citizens.”

“I won’t reveal anything, what [opening ceremony director] “Thomas Joly and all his teams have prepared. There is a surprise too,” he added, before continuing with a smile: “I am not responsible for his schedule.”

Dion’s appearance will mark a comeback after she was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome in December 2022, which forced her to cancel several live shows.

The syndrome is a neurological condition that causes muscle spasms.

This will also be the second time that Dion, known as the “Queen of Power Ballads,” will perform at the Olympics opening ceremony, after performing in Atlanta in 1996.

She was seen outside her hotel on Tuesday surrounded by fans.

“For me, she is the best singer and the best diva, and it’s amazing to be able to see her here in France, especially after everything that happened, it’s nice to see her here in good shape,” said fan Océanne Moulin, 24.

They added that it would be “incredible” if she did act.

Last month, Sports and Olympics Minister Amelie Oudéa told France 2 that Dion’s participation in the opening ceremony was “a possibility.”
