You’re a human being, it can happen.
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Celine Dion has returned to performing at Caesars Palace after a viral infection that made her dizzy caused her to cancel six shows last month.
“I felt very bad,” the 38-year-old French-Canadian diva told The Associated Press in a recent interview. The singer had labyrinthitis, an inflammation of the inner ear often accompanied by an impaired sense of balance.
“It’s hard to do a show, but it’s harder not to do it,” Dion said.
“When you come back, you’re afraid. You’re scared and you’re like, kind of ashamed,” she said. “You’re like, ‘I’m sorry, you know?’”
“Then you talk to yourself and say, ‘You’re a human being, it can happen.’”
Dion will put on her 500th show at Caesars Palace on Sunday. It is a benefit production to raise $1 million for 10 local charities. The performer said she’s excited about the benchmark performance. Some concertgoers have paid up to $10,000 for two front-row seats.
“It’s amazing that people wanted to come and make a difference, too,” she said. “It’s rewarding. It’s wonderful.”
Dion began a three-year engagement at the 4,100-seat Colosseum theater in 2003. She’s now performing about 165 shows a year. Her run has been extended through the end of 2007.
