Celine Dion makes rare appearance during Steelers vs Cowboys game promo
View Date:2024-12-23 15:29:25
Celine Dion is back — or maybe just for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys matchup on Sunday night?
The legendary French Canadian singer made an appearance in the Sunday Night Football opening promo, with Dion connecting the love she sang about in her hit 1996 single "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" to, well, football.
"I think my favorite thing about this game is its power to connect who we are, to who we were," Dion said, sporting a vintage 1996 Super Bowl sweatshirt, which also featured the Steelers and Cowboys. "To prove that our most powerful memories, our most enduring loves, can stay with us forever. You know what I’m talking about, right? Sometimes, some nights, it all just comes back."
The promo then shows clips from the two teams' previous matchups.
"Their love affair, well, maybe not love the way I usually sing about it. But still, work with me here," Dion said. "I mean, 'When you touch me like this, when you hold me like that.' It kind of fits, no?"

The Grammy-winning singer continued: "But really, what beautiful passion it produced. What painful heartbreak it revealed. So, so long ago. Like so many old flames, it always feels right when they're back together, don't you think? Like tonight, evoking the kind of magic they once produced. The Cowboys and the Steelers, a timeless classic on Sunday night."
Then, like the various coaches shown drenched with Gatorade, Dion herself is doused in the orange sports drink.
Dion made her official musical comeback amid her battle with stiff person syndrome at the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony in July. The avid sports fan also made an appearance at a Montreal Canadiens hockey game last November. Dion first revealed the diagnosis in 2022 as the reason she had to cancel her upcoming world tour dates and Las Vegas residency.
During Dion's return to the spotlight, she released the harrowing "I Am: Celine Dion" documentary, in which she suffers a violent episode of SPS onscreen.
