Céline Dion nearly died during her battle with a rare neurological disorder, stiff person syndrome. The Grammy Award-winning singer was diagnosed in 2022.

Céline Dion was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome in 2022, a largely unknown neurological disorder that nearly killed her. Ahead of an upcoming interview with the singing sensation, Hoda Kotb revealed on Thursday's episode of 'Hoda and Jenna' that Dion 'almost died' while battling the disorder.

By the end of the year, Dion revealed in an emotional video shared online she was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome. Stiff person syndrome is defined by the Cleveland Clinic as 'a rare autoimmune movement disorder that affects the central nervous system . People with this condition first experience a stiffening of the muscles of their trunk followed, over time, by the development of stiffness and rigidity in the legs and other muscles in the body.

If I can’t run, I’ll walk. If I can’t walk, I’ll crawl. And I won’t stop. I won’t stop.' The Irene Taylor-directed film will be available to stream on Prime Video beginning June 25.
