C\u00e9line Dion gave fans a thumbs-up and continued singing after falling onstage during her Paris residency.<\/p>\n
The 58-year-old was performing \u201cDans un autre monde\u201d on Oct. 7 at Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, outside Paris, when she lost her balance.<\/p>\n
It was the 11th concert of her current run, which brings together songs from her French- and English-language catalogs.<\/p>\n
Concertgoer Gary Francq, who filmed the incident, told Storyful that he was initially surprised and worried, according to TMZ<\/a>. He said the fall did not appear to affect the remainder of the show.<\/p>\n Celine fell today \ud83d\ude2d I would have had to crawl on stage with her<\/p>\n \u2014 olga \ud83c\udf08\ud83d\udc95 (@celinishfetish) October 7, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Fan footage shows Dion moving across the stage and hopping on one foot before slipping backward. Her pants appear to catch beneath her heel, according to Entertainment Weekly<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dion landed on her bottom and extended one arm to brace herself, keeping the microphone in her other hand. She got back to her feet without waiting for assistance.<\/p>\n The song appears on her 1998 album S\u2019il suffisait d\u2019aimer<\/em> and was written by longtime collaborator Jean-Jacques Goldman.<\/p>\n Near the end of the concert, Dion briefly lost her place during the closing number, \u201cPour que tu m\u2019aimes encore.\u201d Fans were already singing along when she faltered, and the crowd continued while she paused.<\/p>\n \u201cJ\u2019en oublie mes mots. Heureusement que vous \u00eates l\u00e0, je suis d\u00e9sol\u00e9e,\u201d she said, according to Journal des Femmes<\/a>. In English: \u201cI\u2019m forgetting my words. Thankfully you\u2019re here, I\u2019m sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n Dion briefly covered her face before returning to the performance. RTL<\/a> reported that she also told fans how deeply their participation had moved her and encouraged them to believe in themselves and hold on to their dreams.<\/p>\nVideo Shows Dion Lose Her Footing<\/h2>\n
