Thousands turned out to witness Céline Dion perform in Paris on Saturday, her first show after a six year illness-induced hiatus.

Céline Dion’s first full performance in six years took place at Paris La Défense Arena on Saturday night, drawing an emotional response from the audience. The Canadian singer, who had been diagnosed with an uncommon neurological upset known as stiff idiosyncratic syndrome—a condition that led her to cancel previous tours—appeared visibly moved as she returned to the stage. Fans sang along to her classic hits, many dancing in the aisles while others wiped away tears. Paris correspondent Hugh Schofield described the scene, saying the atmosphere reminded him of being swept up in what French fans are calling 'the biggest comeback since Charles de Gaulle'.
