At 51, Celine Dion Just Showed Off Her Crazy Flexibility By Doing a Perfect Split on Instagram
Celine Dion, 51, just showed off her crazy flexibility in a new Instagram video.
She does a split while showing off her perfectly poised ballet arms.
Celine started practicing ballet after her husband, Rene Angelil, died in 2016.
Celine Dion is a lady of many talents, and in a new Instagram video, she put her ballet skills on full display. In the video, the 51-year-old singer does a full split and raises an arm, ballerina style, like it’s literally nothing. “Stretching into the weekend like…. 😉🧘🏼♀️ - Team Céline,” the star’s team captioned the video.
After Celine’s husband, Rene Angelil, died in 2016, the “Imperfections” singer started practicing ballet with one of her backup dancers, Pepe Munoz. “I decided, when I met Pepe, that maybe it’s a sign,” she told Marie Claire in 2019. In her eyes, ballet is “so romantic, dramatic, sensual, it’s like a dream.”
During her Las Vegas residency, she would meet Pepe after her performance four nights a week and dive directly into their ballet workout. “We stretch and we do the barre, we kind of improv. I do this four times a week. I’m working hard, but I like to move,” she told the publication. After turning 50 in March 2018, Celine said, she felt she was entering into her second wind and that she thinks this is the “best of [her] life right now.”

Last year, Celine was criticized for her dramatic weight loss, but she assured People that nothing was wrong. “People say, ‘She’s a lot thinner,’ but I’m working hard. I like to move and (weight loss) comes with it,” she said. In terms of her diet, she told The Hollywood Reporter that she starts the day with an espresso and a croissant.
After being called “gaunt” on Instagram, Celine decided to address concerns around her weight in September 2019. “Is there anything wrong about my body,” she told Entertainment Tonight. “I do ballet. I do a lot of stretching and I work out because it helps my mind, body and soul. When you go back, when I was 12 years old, my face was rounder because you have more fat when you’re younger…But I’ve always been very thin.”
