Celine Dion falls onstage during Paris residency show

Celine Dion tripped on her own pants during a Paris residency show but got up and finished the song.

Celine Dion stumbled onstage when her pants caught on her heel. Celine Dion was performing a French-language hit at her Paris residency when it happened.

Celine Dion caught herself with one arm and rose immediately to continue singing, giving the crowd a thumbs-up to signal she was fine. Dion, 58, is in the middle of her first full concert run since 2020, following her diagnosis with stiff person syndrome, a rare condition that affects muscle control.

Celine Dion made a triumphant return at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony in 2024, but the residency marks her biggest comeback after pausing her tour during the pandemic. The shows are sold out, with each expected to draw more than 30,000 fans through May 2027.
