Celine Dion Sobbed While Singing “All By Myself”

Celine Dion experienced a tremendous loss when her husband and brother passed away within a week of each other. Despite the immense grief, the Queen of Power Ballads showed her professionalism by continuing to perform.

During her rendition of the popular song “All By Myself,” she flawlessly hit the notoriously challenging high note, F5, which marked the climax of the song. However, the weight of her emotions became overwhelming, and she broke down in tears after the performance.

This emotional moment was witnessed by the audience, but Dion remained on stage, gathering herself and demonstrating her unwavering dedication to her craft. When the video featuring this moment was released, it quickly went viral. Let’s watch the stunning performance in the video below:

Dion’s manager and husband of 22 years, René Angélil, passed away at the age of 73 after battling throat cancer on January 14, 2016. Just two days later, on what would have been Angélil’s birthday, Dion’s brother Daniel also succumbed to cancer at the age of 59. These devastating losses served as the backdrop for Dion’s Las Vegas performance, which took place the following month and marked her return to the stage after the tragedy.

Dion demonstrated impressive composure as he successfully got through the most challenging part of the song, which includes the powerful vocal section ending with the word “anymore.” Hitting the high F5 note at the end of this section, which transitions into the song’s outro, is notoriously difficult.

Many viewers were deeply moved by this moment, and many left comments to console her. One wrote, “I can’t even imagine how it’s like to hear this live. I got goosebumps the whole time watching it through my screen.”

Another also commented, “All of your fans are praying for you as you face this difficult health challenge now. We love you Celine.”
