In the documentary, the 56-year-old French-Canadian singer revealed that she nearly died from the disease. Dion shared that she has improved significantly since her early diagnosis, and getting back to singing and performing has been her main motivator in overcoming the disease. "It's not hard to do a show now, it's hard to cancel a show," Dion said. "I'm working hard every day, but I have to admit — it's been a struggle. I miss it so much. The people. I miss them. If I can't run, I'll walk. If I can't walk, I'll crawl. I won't stop."

Friday's Opening Ceremony also featured performances by Lady Gaga and French-Malian pop star Aya Nakamura. However, Dion's performance marked the end of the ceremony and the beginning of the Olympic Games, signifying not just the start of the global event but also the start of a musical comeback for the beloved singer.
