Earlier this week, Celine Dion announced that she was canceling her new Las Vegas residency show at Resorts World for medical reasons -- she is having "severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing," according to a statement. Now, the Canadian superstar's sister is shedding a bit more light on exactly what's wrong.
In an interview on a news show on TVA, a French language television network in Canada, Celine's sister Claudette said Celine will be out "maybe for a few months" due to the muscle issues, which involve her lower body, and were apparently also problem at her last Las Vegas residency.
"The stage was a bit of a steep slope, and it was causing her problems with her muscles and her legs and feet," Claudette explained, adding, "I know she can't wait to get back to her fans, she can't wait to get back on stage, but she won't if she doesn't feel 100% fit."
