She wrapped up her final performance in Paris on Saturday night, after returning with a comeback residency in the city after a six-year hiatus from the spotlight.

And the singing icon, 58, was spotted leaving the Royal Monceau hotel where she has been staying with her two sons on Sunday after completing the run of shows.

As well as being joined by her twin boys Eddy and Nelson, 15, she was also accompanied by her tiny toy poodle Madison.

Celine tucked Madison into her oversized green coat, while carrying a burgundy bag and sporting statement sunglasses.

The small pooch was adopted in early 2026 and was introduced to fans on social media, before charming crowds during Celine’s stay in Paris.

Celine’s final show of the year took place on Saturday at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, just outside Paris.

It was the emotional finale of the first leg of her long-awaited comeback residency, following years away from regular concert performances.

Celine’s diagnosis of stiff-person syndrome (SPS) has been one of the most significant challenges of her life and career.

She publicly revealed the condition in December 2022, after experiencing symptoms that had made it increasingly difficult for her to sing and perform.

At the time, she announced that she had to postpone and cancel performances while she concentrated on her health.

She subsequently cancelled the remaining dates of her Courage World Tour.

Stiff-person syndrome is a rare neurological condition that affects the central nervous system. It can cause episodes of muscle stiffness, painful spasms and difficulty moving normally.

The final performance drew more than 30,000 fans as she performed around 30 songs spanning her French and English repertoire.

The run has seen Celine sell more tickets than any other artist in the history of the venue as she broke records with her show.

At the final show, she expressed how quickly the five-week run had passed, telling the crowd in French that she already missed them and could hardly believe it was the last night.

The initial run was later expanded to 16 nights, with a further ten performances confirmed for May 2027.

Celine told the audience: ‘This beautiful adventure finishes tonight. But we’ll meet again next May. In the meantime, believe in yourselves and hold on to your dreams!’

Wearing a custom Chanel ensemble, Dion brought the 2026 residency to a close with her latest single, Bonjour, Pardon, Merci.

The two-hour performance celebrated a career spanning several decades, weaving together French- and English-language songs and revisiting some of the most memorable moments in her extensive catalogue.

Highlights included the global phenomenon My Heart Will Go On, the soaring ballad The Power of Love, the heartfelt Because You Loved Me and the enduring favourite All by Myself.

French-language classics such as Pour que tu m’aimes encore, Encore un soir and S’il suffisait d’aimer also featured, underscoring the breadth of a repertoire that has resonated with audiences across languages and generations.

Throughout the residency, Celine was accompanied by musical director and pianist Scott Price, a full band, a string quartet and a 16-member choir.
