Nmj Posted March 22, 2024 at 07:50 PM Posted March 22, 2024 at 07:50 PM From LV Review Journal: https://www.reviewjournal.com/entertainment/entertainment-columns/kats/celine-dion-catches-another-hockey-game-return-to-stage-still-mystery-3021892/ “How Dion’s activity is related to a potential return to live performance has not been spelled out. Reps for AEG Presents, which books and co-produces all shows at Resorts World Theater, did not return requests for comment. Officials have only said they remain optimistic she will perform again on the Strip.” Well, he tried… They ain’t telling him anything if they know lol Quote
isurrender Posted March 23, 2024 at 08:31 PM Posted March 23, 2024 at 08:31 PM I don't think it will be a popular opinion but somehow I don't feel the need for her comeback (on stage). I thought it would be around these days but after checking it was on the 8th on March 2024 that she did her last show. 4 years ago... I'm going to be straightforward about it : her last years performing were painfull to hear ( beside some few highlights). Don't get wrong : I' m not criticizing ...it is what it is. I don't think her vocal conditions improved, far from that, for various reasons : she had other stuff to care of ; she hasn't sung for such a long time, it's not rest at this point. Don't forget that the voice is a muscle... put an athlete on sby for such a long time and he won't come back as strong as it was ; she is 56 and recovering is not as easy and quick as it used to ( let alone the fact she has SPS..). I might be wrong ( and I hope I am) but I tend to think her vocal conditions got worse since 2019 ( which wasn't stellar). Quote

But Celine in 2024 with a SPS (muscle disorder) is probably still one of the best voices to grace the earth. If and when she’s ready to perform again, you better believe she will still be capable of giving the goosebumps. 4 Quote
ScotieG Posted March 23, 2024 at 09:42 PM Posted March 23, 2024 at 09:42 PM We know she still has some control over her voice from singing backstage at the Grammys. Sure it wasn’t very high or loud, but there’s still a voice there; whether it’s strong enough to sing those big songs again; who knows? Either way, she seems to be doing well and that’s all that matters to me. 3 Quote
karatedude317 Posted March 23, 2024 at 09:49 PM Posted March 23, 2024 at 09:49 PM Don’t forget she sang love again last fallAnd sounded Great. Plus she sang a high note at the bruins locker room. She wants nothing more than to sing again and if anyone can make it happen she can! Maybe the four year rest will do her voice some good. I’m sure she is practicing and doing vocal exercises 2 Quote

And now with SPS, we don't know how her voice condition is. If she is able to come back on stage, I will be in the front row! 1 Quote
ScotieG Posted March 23, 2024 at 10:31 PM Posted March 23, 2024 at 10:31 PM She could sit on a chair and sing “London Bridge is Falling Down” for to hours and I’d be there haha! 2 Quote

I might be wrong ( and I hope I am) but I tend to think her vocal conditions got worse since 2019 ( which wasn't stellar). Well I can understand that as you're right last concerts were a bit painful to listen to. And few people address here the fact that even if she's clearly doing better and able to go in public. She may not be able to sing with her condition. Céline sings with her body. She may no be able to control her diaphragm, chest, vocal cords etc.... On the other hand, yes she was drained and exhausted during her last Courage concerts. We can fill she was overwhelmed emotionally not that stable and in the need of keeping herself under too much work to fill the void. Well that's what I felt.And I also feel that the last 2 years were just dedicated to her health and I guess also mental health. It's all suppositions but I feel everything was dedicated to her body and "knowing her", also about addressing how to maintain, reinforce her ability to sing as it is her job, during it's hard time. So if she was able to do so and if her body allowed that, she may had work a lot with her voice and get back to a (very) good condition. All supposition, we will know soo I guess 3 Quote

Chantemoi Posted April 2, 2024 at 02:18 AM Posted April 2, 2024 at 02:18 AM (edited) I wouldn’t trust any “news” on April 1st. Especially if it were just a rumour. Edited April 2, 2024 at 02:19 AM by Chantemoi Quote
Céline RO Posted April 2, 2024 at 05:57 AM Posted April 2, 2024 at 05:57 AM (edited) Yeah the timing is bad. But it would make sense. At this point I too am daring to expect a November premiere to the show so it fits with what I had in mind. Edited April 2, 2024 at 05:58 AM by Céline RO Quote The best is yet to come...
No1IrishFan Posted April 2, 2024 at 04:23 PM Posted April 2, 2024 at 04:23 PM Let’s say it was happening in November; how late can they announce it? Is there a norm timewise for this kind of thing. I’m so out of the loop because it’s been so long since a tour or a show Quote

I’m so out of the loop because it’s been so long since a tour or a show In 2021, Celine announced her residency (which eventually never happened) at the end of April/first of May for November that year. If we take that as their continued practice, a 6 month notice. So we will see if these rumours are true fairly quickly then. Quote
Céline RO Posted April 2, 2024 at 05:25 PM Posted April 2, 2024 at 05:25 PM April 22nd is when the final cancelled CWT show was supposed to take place, don’t forget that. It would be kind of awkward to ask people for their money (and trust) again so soon, especially considering that it was reported recently that they still hadn’t finished giving people their refunds. That being said, Céline does have a contract with RW which has already been postponed three years so I’m assuming as soon as she feels at 100% capacity and able to guarantee shows months from now, they’re gonna have to get it started.

Normally around 6 months, but with Celine’s diagnosis I could see them waiting even more to announce (If said shows happen) just in case. I think the last thing they want to do is cancel again if god forbid 6 months down the line she takes a step backwards…I would say realistically probably 2-3 months before shows. I could possibly see plan of releasing the documentary “I am Celine Dion” in September like is rumored to be, at the same time announcing the ticket sales for a late November return… Edited April 2, 2024 at 05:56 PM by Nmj Quote

Even before any issue with her health was identified the new residency seemed to be 2-ish week runs at a time, already smaller than the Celine residency was. So it seems the plan was to reduce the vegas engagements anyway. Edited April 3, 2024 at 01:29 AM by AdrienneM 1 Quote

So it seems the plan was to reduce the vegas engagements anyway. She was/is still under that performance contract through 2026 which stipulated a certain number of shows and earnings to be attained in Vegas, right? And she was under the same contract back in 2019 so, despite the apparent reduction in the number of scheduled shows, there must have been a way to make up for it. I wonder if that contract has been modified in any way to adapt to current circumstances or just extended past 2026 to make up for the lost years. Quote The best is yet to come...

I wonder if that contract has been modified in any way to adapt to current circumstances or just extended past 2026 to make up for the lost years. I’m sure if ( and I pray and hope) she returns there can be legalities in place for Celine to opt out of her current contract as it stood prior to her diagnosis. This changed the game… I’d bet there a lot more flexibility to adjust the contract as it’s just a fact that’s she’s no longer the same Celine who agreed to said contract prior to her illness and diagnosis. I think AEG, and resorts world know that and this rate they’d just be happy to see her return even if it’s only say 20 shows or less a year, with no form of legal penalties if she’s unable to even to execute the shows they do agree upon. Time will tell but considering she may never return to live performance I think her business partners and even us as fans have to take ANY future performances as one gift at a time if they happen and can’t expect any more.
