My dream is, uh...

um, to be international star.

And to be able, um, uh...

to sing all my life.

Hello, everyone. How you doing?

- Thank you. Hi.

Thank you, sir.

All right,
you got to tell her where she sits.

There, I think. I think. Or there.

Where do you
want me to sit, Mr. Director?

I think that's
where we decided.

- Uhp, let's go the other way.
- Oh, that's even brighter.

Yep, one more. Cool.

And now we're gonna go
up a little bit on this.

All right.

- Wow.
- This is weird.

Cool.

Okay, what's your favorite color?

I thought you were going to ask me
a very easy question,

and that's not an easy question
for me to answer.

Mine's red.

I like that.
It's love. I like that.

- What is yours?
- Red.

- For real?
- Yeah.

You don't have to say red, too,
because you're twins.

No, for real.

What happened? Are you in love?

Okay.

What is your second question?

If you had to go anywhere,
where would you go?

Like, a country or a state.

Mm.

I know you know that.

That I've traveled the world...
many times.

And do you believe me if I tell you that
even though I traveled the world

that I-I didn't really see anything?

Strange, isn't it?

Sometimes you call that...
it's the price to pay.

That means cut, like that-that's enough?

Celine, if you have pain,
move your fingers.

Push into my hand if you have pain.

Ready? One, two, three.

There we go.

All right.

You feel better on your side?

No? Yeah?

So, she's had issues
in the past.

Shock waves
still reverberating

through the entertainment world
this morning

after singer Celine Dion revealing she has
been diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome.

It's a condition
that attacks the nervous system.

It is extremely rare.

You never want to be
a rarity in medicine or science.

Stiff-person syndrome,
also called SPS,

affects one or two in a million people,
twice as many women as men.

Stiff-person syndrome
is what doctors say is

muscles rebelling against the body,
causing severe spasms.

Triggered by
a heightened sensitivity

to noise, touch or emotional stress.

The disease
could be particularly challenging...

- Eddy?
- Yeah?

My love,
is it your turn to go to school?

I adore you.

Me too.

Thank you. You've brushed your teeth,
but have you got the retainer?

Your godmother will go with you.

- Okay.
- I love you.

Me too.

Bye, my love.

Bye.

- Hello, Jessica.
- Hello.

I'm so sorry, honey.
Thank you so much for waiting.

I'm just gonna take my medicine

- for lunch.
- Okay.

Can I add two Tylenol to that?

- Of course.
- Okay.

The ones that are super rough and tough?

Super rough and tough.

- The big boys.
- Thank you.

- Thank you so much, hon.
- Of course.

I'm gonna have to find water somewhere.

Mm.

These are... these are very, very cozy.

These are cozy.

Here we go.

Here we go.

You know,

it's a question of, um, 17 years.

It's, um...

I have been, um...

17 years ago, I started to, uh,

experience some, um, voice spasming.

This is the way it started.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

I woke up one morning,
and I had my breakfast, and, uh...

after having my breakfast,

my voice started to go up.

And, uh...

...it freaked me out a little bit.

Because normally
when you're tired as a singer

because you did a show the night before,

your voice would go...

I mean, roughly half a key down
or one, one note down.

Um, it would go down a little bit.

So you warm up your voice
and you can stretch it,

like Play-Doh and all that.

And then you have more bass,
which is really good because

there's no lows, there's no highs.

If every string of my notes are strings,
for example,

like elastic, like...

down,

the next time that I would try would go...

And the third time...

and cracking.

I cannot bring it down.

It's like a muscle thing.

And the second time is here, and
the third time is here, and then it goes.

Same thing with the high.

One high, second high, third high.

So I couldn't do the sound check too long,

the warm-up too long.

But if you don't warm up too long...
long enough, you can hurt yourself.

So I was... I was scared.

I didn't know what to do.

And today,

the diagnosis... SPS.

Which is stiff-person syndrome.

It's in the muscle. It's in the tendons.

It's in the nerves.

You can't see anything.

Because it's not... seeable.

How much... how many people in that pouch?

Uh, 1,000 to 15,000

different plasma donors

in order to pull that much immunoglobulin,
that many antibodies.

Last year, I got
to a point that I couldn't walk anymore.

I had to...

I was losing my balance a lot.

It was hard to walk.

A lot of pain.

And I can't use my voice yet.

Music.

I miss it a lot.

But also...

...the people.

I miss them... you know?

The fans give me lots of
energy. Lots and lots.

And being on stage is the gift
of show business.

And...

it's like a drug fix.

When you have the soul
of an artist...

artist one day, artist always.
You can't live without it.

Look at me.

Bear.

You good? Oh, great. I'm great.

I love you.

She's a blinker.

She said, "I love you, too."

It's not hard to do a show, you know?

It's hard to cancel a show.

If somebody sees me have a good time
for a moment with my family...

...and I was supposed to be onstage
and they had a ticket that night...

...they have the right
to come to me and say,

"Hey."

I can't just do whatever I want.

I can't go out.

I'm stuck.

Um...

But there's been moments where...

...I had to go to the studio,
and I knew they wanted Celine Dion.

Who's Celine Dion?

Celine Dion is the one who sang...

♪ All by myself anymore ♪♪

...the highest note ever
and whatever, and...

she's the best.

- Thank you, sir.
- Absolutely.

I feel like Liberace.

Here we go.

On your left.

And on your right.

It's a warehouse.

It can be overwhelming.

But when I go there, I see my life,

and I love every piece of it.

It's my unique tutu...

dress.

Whew.

Come closer.

That's a very old Dior, if I remember.

- I'm just gonna open this one.
- Yeah.

Yeah, it's Dior.

The girl knows her stuff.

When a girl loves her shoes,

she always make them fit.

I have worn shoes, my friend,
my toes were like this

because they didn't have my size.

Every time I went to a store
and I loved those shoes,

they said, "What size are you, ma'am?"

I said, "No, you don't understand.
What size do you have?"

I'll make them work. I'll make them fit.

I will walk the shoe.

I walk the shoe. The shoe don't walk me.

I've worked shoes with my feet like this,

and sometimes like this,
to hold on to them.

From six to ten, give it to me.

I love them. Here we go.

To your left! Left! Eyes left!

I wore my dress to an event.

And then what?

A piece like this
or a piece like that or...

or a dress like this...

...it's difficult to

wear again because

it had such a big impact.

To your left!

Look to your left!

To your left!

Eyes left! Eyes left!

In the old, old, old, old days,

women had one hat, one pair of gloves,

two dresses, one black pair of shoes,

and...

it was classic,

effortless and so chic.

For me to put these pants,
and I have to put a shirt,

and we wanted the shirt to have a collar
and white, like, sleeves.

We...

They made it like
it was very, very fitted.

I'll take the whole thing.

So obviously there's a collar over here.

Sleeveless, so it takes less space
into the sleeves of the jacket itself,

so I don't have to go...

"I'm too sw-sweaty. It doesn't fit."

It's not as hot.

So I have the... I have a collar.

So I have my jacket,
but where's the... the sleeve?

So all the sleeves are here.

And with me showing you that...

...you see the snaps over here.

One, two snaps. Two, two.

Just for the white to come out because
it looks elegant and clean and sharp,

but over here, I don't have
all that excess and I can't move,

and when I go like this, it comes out,
and then we don't...

But a lot of people had to...

think of that and put time and effort
and making sense with all of that.

It's a snap on. It's a snap out.

It's a big zipper instead of an invisible.

And it's a flap and it's a Velcro,
but none of that shows.

None of that shows.

And that's the magic of show business,
but if I may say...

I think it was...
I think we did create our own magic.

My band, my backup singers,

I want them to feel good and look good.

Do you like yourself?

When you like yourself, you walk better.

You perform better.

You hold your instrument with pride.

Playing the guitar...

let me introduce you
to André Coutu.

We grew together.

And we built,

and we walked, and we fixed,
and we dreamed,

and we... we traveled together,

and we grew together,
and we bonded together,

because at the end, all we wanted

is to be the best
of each and every one of us.

Because we loved music,
we had respect for each other,

we became a family,

and I became...

...who I am because of all these people.

If you want to go fast, you go alone.

And if you want to go far, go together.

Oh, gosh.

Oh.

Wow.

When I was... This is upside-down,
but this is a drawing from RC.

He was drawing in my, uh, dressing room,

and I was holding on, and I'm still
holding on to those beautiful souvenirs.

I'll take this to my room.

Shh.

Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi.

I can't wear
flip-flops, it's freezing outside.

It's cold, yes.

You have a lot of options.

I don't. I don't have any flat shoes.

I need to buy some.

Maybe these.

Which ones?
Show them to me.

I have nothing to wear.

What have you got there?

Find me a pair.

I think you have flats in the car.

No slippers,
there might be paparazzis.

You need a closed toe shoe.

I'm packing like I'm going
on a weekend outing.

I'm packing real fancy stuff.

You like it, right?

Here you go.

I've always been a dreamer, but this is
an encounter with real life.

I've been giving everything
to show business for the past 20 years.

I gave my life, I haven't
really lived it.

I love you my darling, I love you.

Wait, wait, wait!

She knows
nothing about baseball.

She knows nothing about baseball?

Watch the babies behind!

Check it out,
she'll miss the ball.

Told you so!

When my kids
were still very young...

babies...

I was holding on to those moments so much.

Their first toys.

The first bib of RC.

That antique

for the kids.

The toys and the souvenirs.

Every piece I remember and I know.

And, um...

I cherish.

They were important.
They're still important.

And they will live on.

I must have liked one of these
because there's four.

Wow.

It's becoming
painful to walk.

We grew up in a little town
called Charlemagne,

and that's in the province of Quebec.

Cold, snowy, a great ambiance.

Lots of music. Lots of gifts.

Lots of love. Lots of happiness.

My mom was a very strong person.

She was a musician.

My mom met my dad through music.

My parents left their dreams aside for us.

My dad worked.

My mom made it happen.

But sometimes there was
nothing left in the fridge.

She never told us,
"We have nothing to eat tonight."

She started to make

dough.

And... there was carrots.

She didn't say anything.

She puts her own beets and little, uh...

homemade ketchup on the table
and all the condiments

and everything
that she could put on the table.

And a few beautiful hot pies.

And she said she prayed before.

She prayed that she was not going to hear,

"Mom, wh... what is that?"

The first bite that someone

took, they said,

"Mmm. Mom, what is that? It's so good."

It was carrot pies.

This is my greatest foundation.

I don't remember
singing for myself so much.

I remember being five,
singing on the kitchen table,

and singing for my audience,
which were my family.

That's... that was amazing.

There was, like, the lamp.

I could reach almost the light
and the sk... the stars.

On top of the kitchen dining table,

and I was pretending that I was onstage
and I was putting a show on

with my little slip on...
whatever I had and...

I don't even know what I was wearing.

Then my brother got married, and...

I was five years old,
and I sang a few songs.

And my mom told me that...

if there was a wrong note by
the guitar player, I would, I would turn.

I didn't know how to
kind of, like, just go with it.

And my mom said, "When something...
someone do something wrong,

just don't-don't go... don't do that.

Make like nothing happened."

I didn't create myself.

It's not the song.

A performance is way bigger than the song.

really, I think.

...we have to tell the crowd why,
the people why.

Lying.

I can't lie anymore.

From a sinus infection
to an ear infection to a...

Whatever.

Sometimes I would point my microphone
towards the audience,

and I would make them sing it.

There's moments where I cheated,

and I tapped on the microphone
like it was the microphone's fault.

I did what my mom said.

I didn't flinch.

And there's also

moments where we had to stop the show.

Quick change.

And I never came back.

The lie is too heavy now.

I want to shoot a little wider
and more cleaned up.

- Uh, you're still out.
- I just want to do one look over

- and check all the angles.
- There you go.

I'm ready when she's ready.

- I'm ready.
- Okay.

And anytime you want.

Hello, everyone.

I'm sorry it's taken me so long
to reach out to you.

I miss you all so much.

And I can't wait to be onstage,
talking to you in person.

As you know,
I've always been an open book.

And I wasn't ready to say anything before.

But I'm ready now.

Recently...

I've been diagnosed with
a very rare neurological disorder

called stiff-person syndrome...

...which affects something like
one in a million people.

I'm working hard with my

sports medicine therapist every day

to build back my strength

and my ability to perform again.

But I have to admit...

...it's been a struggle.

All I know...

is singing.

It's what I've done all my life.

And it's what I love to do the most.

I miss it so much.

Being on the stage, performing for you.

I always give 100% when I do my shows,

but my condition is not allowing me
to give you that right now.

For me to reach you again,

I have no choice but to concentrate
on my health at this moment.

And I have hope
that I'm on the road to recovery.

Take care of yourselves.

Be well.

I love you guys so much.

And I really hope
I can see you again real soon.

Thank you.

Um...

Do we...

Do we have what we need?

Yeah, we're good.

Did you have
any extra soreness or anything

- from what I worked on?
- No.

- In this area?
- No.

- All right, so that's the good part.
- Good.

Good. Today we're gonna work on the feet.

- Okay, do you want me to cream them?
- No, I'm gonna cream them.

Yeah.

- I didn't...
- Don't worry. You didn't do your pedicure.

I know.

You're okay.

You're okay.

- I did not have time.
- It's okay.

What are you doing?

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, don't do that!
- No?

No, 'cause
I'm just gonna work on it.

Have you been using that cream?

- Not lately.
- I see that. You really...

Oh, shush. Give me a break.

Thank you.

Ouch. Easy when you grab that heel.

Sorry.

- I want to be good.
- You are good.

No, I'm not good.

Think about where you were
two and a half months ago.

Think about where you were in November.

I don't want to think about that.

Exactly.

I want

- that motion.
- Okay.

There you go. Better.

Good.

- Better or good?
- It's better.

No.

What can I do to make it, like...?

So...

Move this foot slightly in, right here.

Good. Touch around your hips.

Working hard, for me,
is not, um...

not a part of a problem.

♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

For a moment in my life
where I was, like, um,

in control of what I loved to do,

I could record three songs per night.

They would say to me, like,

"Your-your voice starting to change."

And I'm like,
"Okay, so since it's starting to change,

I want to use... I want to sing
this song now because this song needs...

I need to hear the struggle
or the disappointment."

Even though I really want
to work hard and do it and...

I have to listen to not my body
but the people that I trust for my body.

You have to believe in
the people that you work with,

and so far, so good, you know?

Have you seen
the Friends episode with Phoebe?

She does a...

No, she wants to... she sings at the café.

And so when she's singing at the café,
she's got a... she's terrible.

And so she gets sick,

and she loves her voice,
and so she always wants to be sick.

Just 'cause she likes the raspy-ness of her voice.

Can I, can I tell you something?

I love her.

- I don't know her, but it's so cool.
- Okay.

- You know why? Because I always envy...
- Yeah.

- ...people who smoke...
- Okay.

...and they drink, and they party,
and they don't sleep.

- They're super cool.
- Yeah.

- I mean, cool people.
- Okay.

And then they just like...

- And they just do whatever, right?

And they have a drink,
and me, I-I have water.

And I sleep 12 hours.

Here we go. Okay, sir.

So, Celine, the first thing is...

I didn't know there was, like, questions.

Okay. So the first set of IDs we're
doing is for the John Farnham documentary.

- Yes. Yeah.
- Okay.

So, we don't have to ask the question,

but if it helps you,
we'll ask the question.

And you're answering as if you're
being interviewed by, you know...

- Mm-hmm.
- ...the host of that show.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, 'cause they're obviously in Australia.

- Because for me, when I read this...
- Mm-hmm.

"How did you first hear about John?"

and then my answer here on...
here it says, "I first discovered..."

Well, first of all,

I wish I would've discovered John Farnham.

I did not.

I did not discover John Farnham.

But you know what? I heard John Farnham,

and I was flipping because
the power broke our radio.

- And... but it's...
- If you want,

we can change it. We can say,

- "I first heard John about 25..."
- Yeah.

You want to ch... want to change it?

I mean, instead of "25 years ago,"
if we can say "two years ago,"

that'd be s-something
that'd make me feel better.

Who's gonna give the cue?

Yeah, you want to give
a-a count, John, or...?

Celine, anytime you'd like.

Thank you so much. In three.

I first heard John about 25 years ago,

when I heard the song "You're the Voice."

It was so powerful.

His voice was incredible,

so emotional.

Are we on to the birthday message
for Paul's mother?

Is that the next one you have there?

A hundred years old?

Yeah.

- It's incredible, right?
- Yeah.

I want to be a hundred years old.

Well, take your time.

It goes faster?

Take one for Dorothy.

Hello, Dorothy.

It's Celine here.

And I'm delighted to join Paul
and all of your family

in wishing you
a very happy 100th birthday.

Such an incredible milestone.

Wishing you health and happiness, Dorothy.

Take good care.

I don't know you, but I love you.

Bye-bye.

That's a great...
that's a great message.

I know it doesn't read on camera, but...

- No, it's...
- ...it makes me smile.

And I'm ready. Here we go.

Yeah. Great.

Do you like the little bit of a "mm-mm"?

Yeah, I do.

- Okay, if not, I got other "mm."
- No, no, that's...

- But it's kind of...
- Yeah.

When can I sing that song?

Ha, ha.

I haven't sang for two years.

I'm not quite sure
if I'm gonna be capable of singing.

But I can't live in doubt.

Nice.

Emotionally, it's very difficult.

I will, in the next few minutes,
find strength.

And if it cracks and it doesn't work,
there's nothing I can do.

And if it works, I will be...

...uh, the happiest I will be.

Everybody's gonna be happy, but...

If I may say, I don't... I will

I will be extremely happy.

We haven't heard this
for a couple of years.

It feels like music to us.

They paid a lot of money around the world
to come and see our shows.

I feel like...

let's say...

there's an apple tree...

I'm an apple tree.

And people are in line,
and I give them apples,

the best, and I shine them.

And they all leave
with a basket of apples.

And...

my branches are starting
to fall sometimes,

get crooked.

And those branches are starting
to produce a little less apples,

but there's still as many people in line.

- Sorry. Forgive me. I...

Are we gonna go in there?

Let's get you to lie down on your back.

Oops.

Spasm?

I just...

- Spasmed?
- Yeah.

You're not supposed to.

Just relax.

But you didn't have any spasms yesterday.

Relax your foot.

How are your ankles? Just...

This is your first spasm for today?

Or did you have any others, too?

- No, first. Yeah.
- Same now?

Part of the disease

is that, as soon as you go
into a contraction,

sometimes it doesn't... the signal
to release it, doesn't understand it,

so it ends up just staying
into a contracted position.

So just try to relax.

So right now,

this gives us
an indication that her body...

her brain right now is overstimulated
and there's something going on.

And she keeps spasming.

That could lead to a crisis.

Good.

What I'm gonna do is we're gonna give you

some of that Valium. Yeah.

So she's going into seizure.

- Celine, we're gonna get you off to your side, okay?
- Mm-hmm.

So I'm gonna move you down.
And remove this.

Okay, so lift your head for me, if you can.

Lift your head. Okay, I'm gonna lift you.

Ready? One, two, three.

Brian, I need you right now.

She's in a crisis.

- What do we need?
- Just give me the meds, please.

Can I get you...

Good. Just leave that there.
Grab that... the towel.

- Yep.
- So we can support her head.

Good. Let's put it right here.

Right here if possible. Right here.

Right here.

There you go. Good.

- I'm gonna lift her body.
- Yeah.

If you don't mind
grabbing this bottom arm.

- Which one? Underneath?
- Just up under. Ready?

All right, lift her. Yeah. Ready?
One, two, three.

She might be in spasm, yeah.

I got to get her hand up.
I don't want to hurt her wrist.

- Got her?
- Yep.

- There we go. There we go, boss.
- Good.

There we go, boss.

Celine, you're okay. You're okay, Celine.

Her heart's coming down. It's 83 now.

Good. Good.

Hey, boss.

Celine?

Put your fingers in her hand.
Just in her hand.

Squeeze Bri... Brian's hand if you can.

- That a girl. Good job, boss.
- Good.

So she's still with us.

Give me another squeeze, boss?

Thank you.

- Good?
- We're still with you, boss. You're good.

Her foot started spasming before,

and I was like,
"Hmm, this is taking a lot longer."

Then she did it again.

Happened again.

He's just putting
that blood pressure cuff on you, boss.

We're right here with you, boss.

We're here with you.

We're gonna go
a couple more minutes. Okay?

If nothing changes,
we're gonna give you the nasal spray.

Okay?

Celine, try to calm down.

It's okay, Celine. Everything is okay.

Celine, you've got all your team here.

We're all... we're all with you.

Everything's gonna be okay.
Everything's gonna be okay.

It's okay, boss. It's okay.

Thank you.

Do you have pain?

Squeeze my hand if you have pain.
Squeeze my hand if you have pain.

Okay. Okay.

Still there.

Now she's breathing abnormally.

Based on that, 91/118.

Okay. Nasal spray's going in at 7:28.

Coming out.

- It's expressed.
- 95/118.

We're with you, boss. We got you, boss.

Celine, everything's okay.

It's okay.

We got you, boss, okay?

Good. Celine, we're with you.

Everything's okay.

Let's try slowly breathing, and just
concentrate on your breathing right now.

Okay?

Good. Hands are starting to loosen up.

Okay, so, Celine,
we're gonna go another nasal, okay?

Okay? So you're with us?

Ready?

One, two, three.

Just a little coming out.

That was the second one. 7:40.

Celine? Squeeze my hand.

Squeeze my fingers for me.

Good. Excellent.

Good.

So we got ten minutes.

And it's ten minutes if she doesn't.

What did she say?

Yeah, we've given the second one.

Yep. We just gave it

just now at 7:40.

It's sounding like she's coming out.

And if she goes back into the spasm,
then we'll do a 911.

Good, Celine.

Welcome back. Everything's good.

Hey, it's okay. It's okay.

Don't worry. Don't worry. You're good.

Don't worry.

Do you want us to take
the cameras out right now?

Or you okay?

- I'm okay.
- You're okay? Okay, good.

Every time something like this happens,
um, it-it makes you feel so embarrassed

and so, like...

I don't know how to express it.

Like, it's just...

- Yeah.
- You know, like, to not have control of yourself, you know?

Your nervous system now

has gone through
a battering ram of everything.

And your whole body
just went through a whole lot,

- so we're just gonna let you rest.
- Do you think it's because

- I-I... I had a good time over there?
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

- No.
- Your brain was just overstimulated. Yeah.

- So there's... so these crises come on...
- Well, what am I gonna do?

Well, that's... it's just
about us getting... finding the way...

- What?
- Build up to that, being able to do that and...

So we'll come back tomorrow?

- No.
- Because-because what's gonna happen?

It's like, if... if I can't get stimulated
by what I love,

and then I'm gonna go onstage and, like,
uh, you gonna put the pulse oximeter on me

and you gonna turn me on my back?

It's scary, I know.

It's hard.

Your journey's not...
This is not the end of your journey.

We all know that.

But this is always that step
on that journey.

All right?

Yeah.

You want another song?

- Our ending song?
- Yeah.

- Our ending song?
- Yeah, I got it.

Okay, our ending song.

The last song of the night.

Just because...

...you are.
