It all got a bit too much for Celine Dion on Monday.
The 1990's music icon made a rare red-carpet appearance to attend the premiere of her new documentary which chronicles her battle with Stiff Person Syndrome, I Am: Celine Dion.
Celine, 56, bravely stepped on stage at New York City's Alice Tully Hall to introduce her emotional new doc before getting a little tearful.
"Thank you to all of you from the bottom of my heart, for being part of my journey," she announced.
"This movie is my love letter to each of you. I hope to see you all again very, very soon," she continued, prompting the audience to erupt in applause.
The I'm Alive singer gracefully wiped tears away from her eyes and was handed a tissue by her son René-Charles Angélil as she went on to deliver her speech on stage.
The Canadian singer was diagnosed with the rare autoimmune neurological disorder in 2022.
But the journey to her diagnosis was no mean feat as she has since revealed she was grappling with the condition in secrecy for nearly two decades before going public the same December.
Her ongoing battle with Stiff Person Syndrome has been laid bare in her upcoming documentary I AM: Celine Dion, in which she discusses her reason for withholding the diagnosis from fans.
