While speaking to the BBC to promote the documentary, Dion said that thanks to a combination of medication and physical therapy she could finally see a way back to performing.

“We have been working so hard to put this show together, because I’m back,” she said.

According to the BBC, Dion has been preparing for a new show in Las Vegas.

“I’ll be on stage. I don’t know when exactly, but trust me I will scream it out loud,” Dion added. “I can’t wait.”

Dion closed out her last residency in 2019, after performing over 1,000 concerts for more than 4.5 million people.

Dion performed “Hymne à l’amour,” a song made famous by French singer Édith Piaf, from the Eiffel Tower as the 2024 Games kicked off in the French capital.

It was the Grammy-winning artist’s first live performance in four years.

Following the performance, Dion shared on Instagram post that she was “honored” and “so full of joy to be back in one of my very favorite cities.”

“Most of all, I’m so happy to be celebrating these amazing athletes, with all their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance,” she wrote.
