announced the singer Celine Dion Through “Instagram”, Thursday, she had a “very rare neurological syndrome”, which forced her once again to postpone concerts she was scheduled to perform in Europe, as part of her “Carriage World Tour”.
The star, who hails from the Canadian province of Quebec, was affected in a video clip she posted on her account, in which she explained that she had been suffering from “health problems for a long time.” “I was recently diagnosed with a very rare neurological disease, Stiff Person Syndrome,” she said.
Because of this disease, which translates into a progressive stiffness of the muscles, Celine Dion had difficulties walking, while the disorder also prevented her from “using her vocal cords” the way she wanted.
She added, “It saddens me very much to have to inform you today that I will not be ready to complete my tour of Europe in February,” stressing that an “excellent team of doctors” is taking care of her condition.
Dion was scheduled to resume the European tour at the end of February from the Czech Republic.
The first 52 concerts of the tour were performed before the spread COVID-19 pandemicin early 2020, and then announced, last January, the cancellation of her concerts in North America as part of this tour, due to her suffering from health problems.
