Canadian singer, Celine Dion's appearance at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games on Friday is expected to bring in an astounding $2 million.

The 56-year-old singer is reportedly getting ready to hit the stage again for the first time after disclosing her 17-year struggle with stiff person syndrome.

Amid her pain, Céline had earlier vowed to return to the stage "even if she has to crawl."

It is now official that the singer will return to the French city, where she will supposedly earn a staggering amount of money only for singing a single song.

A source has told TMZ that she is 'getting ready to take the stage Friday' and that she is 'feeling fine' despite her ongoing health battle.

In December 2022, Céline announced that she had been diagnosed with the syndrome, an extremely rare disorder that makes the muscles in the torso and limbs alternate between spasming and being rigid.
