Megastar singer Celine Dion on Monday announced her return to performing, after a lengthy break prompted by a rare health condition, calling the comeback news revealed on her birthday "the best gift".
Addressing fans in a video released on social media, the 58-year-old Canadian said her condition had improved and she would perform a series of shows in Paris beginning in September.
Dion will also release a new single. She is expected to perform the new song at the Paris shows -- an event that comes more than six years since she was forced to step away from the stage.
Her "Courage World Tour," launched in late 2019 was cancelled a few months after it began because of the Covid-19 pandemic, then due to the singer's health problems.
Dion first disclosed in December 2022, that she had been diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome, an incurable auto-immune disorder.
The Quebec-born star was forced to cancel the remainder of her shows indefinitely.
