00:00 Nice to meet you. How are you? Nice to meet you.
00:02 Nice to see you. How are you? Nice to meet you.
00:04 Celine Dion is making her first appearance since revealing she has been diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder.
00:11 On Tuesday, the Montreal Canadiens shared a video of the "I'm Alive" singer meeting with the NHL team's head coach, Martin Saint-Louis,
00:20 alongside her sons, Rene-Charles, and twins Nelson and Eddie.
00:24 It's an extraordinary night for...
00:26 I'm 14 years old, I'm in the hospital, and I'm having a colon.
00:29 And it's been a while.
00:31 Yeah, it's been a while.
00:33 We've changed a little bit.
00:35 The Canadian-born songstress looked chic and calm while meeting with some of the players following their game in Las Vegas.
00:42 Though she did not seem to give an update on her health, Celine appeared to be in good spirits, even cracking a joke in the locker room.
00:49 Let's not be shy. You smell great.
00:54 This is the first time the Grammy winner has been seen publicly since she revealed in a December 2022 YouTube video that she has been battling stiff person syndrome.
01:05 While we're still learning about this rare condition, we now know this is what's been causing all of the spasms that I've been having.
01:19 Celine looked visibly upset as she shared the news that she is fighting the autoimmune and neurological disorder that can cause rigidity and muscle spasms in the body.
01:30 I've been dealing with problems with my health for a long time.
01:36 And it's been really difficult for me to face these challenges and to talk about everything that I've been going through.
