Celine Dion issues urgent warning amid health woes as music career is threatened

Celine Dion’s team has taken to social media to issue a strong warning to fans, addressing the growing issue of AI-generated content featuring the singer.

These digital creations have been circulating online, with some mimicking her voice or musical performances, and even claiming to be new releases under her name. Celine, 56, who last released original music in 2019 with her album Courage, has not put out any new songs since then, following her retreat from the spotlight due to her Stiff Person Syndrome diagnosis.

The statement from her team clarified: “We are aware that unauthorised AI-generated tracks, falsely attributed to Celine Dion, are being shared online and distributed by various platforms. We want to make it clear that these recordings are not authentic, and are not part of her official music collection”.

Supporters of the singer quickly rallied, expressing their concerns with comments like: “This AI nonsense is getting out of control. There needs to be regulation on this”. Another said: “What a nightmare for Celine! Thanks for speaking out”. While someone else added: “It’s actually kind of terrifying the way AI is taking over absolutely everything”.

While dealing with her health challenges, Celine has focused on recovery, taking the time to regain her strength before planning any new music releases or returning to her residency and tour.

In a conversation with Vogue, Celine shared her experience of first noticing the symptoms of her illness while on the Taking Chances tour in 2008. “I started having trouble controlling my voice. It would go high and then spasm. As a singer, you immediately go to the ENT”, she recalled.

Despite undergoing thorough examinations, doctors couldn’t find any issues with her vocal cords. When she finally received a diagnosis, Celine was surprisingly relieved. “It might sound strange, but when I was diagnosed, I felt a sense of relief. It meant I could finally stop fighting the illness and start working with it”, she said.

Sharing her condition with the public lifted a huge weight off her shoulders. “It’s been a heavy burden, but now that it’s out in the open, I can focus on my reality, and that’s been so liberating. My happiness has returned”.

It comes after Celine commemorated the ninth anniversary of her husband René Angélil’s passing back in January by sharing a heartfelt message and a rare family photo featuring their three sons. In her tribute, Dion expressed that not a day goes by without feeling Angélil’s presence and referred to him as her greatest champion and partner. She concluded with, “We love you”.

The accompanying photograph showcased Dion with her sons: René-Charles, 23, and 14-year-old twins Eddy and Nelson. The family coordinated in neutral tones, with Dion dressed in a cream turtleneck and matching sweats, while her sons opted for tan and white ensembles.

Dion’s full caption read: “René, we can’t believe you’ve been gone nine years already. Not a day goes by that we don’t feel your presence, RC, Eddy, Nelson and I. You were my greatest champion, my partner, and the one who always saw the best in me. I honor you and you are forever missed mon amour…. We love you”.

The episode will see football pundit Anton Ferdinand, TV presenter Michaela Strachan and Coronation Street actor Sam Aston – who are the three finalists – compete to be named the winner of DOI. The trio are set to take to the ice for the final performances alongside their respective skating partners Annette Dytrt, Mark Hanretty and Molly Lanaghan.

Ahead of the final, Holly has showcased her outfit for the special occasion in a post on Instagram this evening. She is known for unveiling her chosen looks on the platform, with her regularly sharing her DOI dresses on there first. Previous weeks have seen the former This Morning presenter model a sparkling golden dress, for example, whilst on another occasion she dressed as Glinda from Wicked in a pink gown.

It shows her posing in the layered dress, which features silver sparkles on its bodice that disappear further down to reveal the white gown beneath the embellishments.

Fans shared their thoughts in the comments section. One person wrote: “You look STUNNING in that dress”. Another fan said: “Gorgeous dress Holly”. A third reacted: “So pretty”. Someone else commented: “You look gorgeous”. Whilst another follower told her: “Wow, stunning dress”.

Our incredible celebrities @strachan. michaela @anton_ferdinand5 and @samaston93 are skating for your votes and to be our Dancing on Champion… they are all champions to me! See you on @itv at 6: 30pm #hwstyle. Dress by @idancohenofficial jewellery by @boodles shoes by @stuartweitzman”.

Last weekend’s semi-final saw the Only Way Is Essex cast member Dan Edgar and his partner Vanessa James voted out of the competition. The pair, who had been bottom of the leaderboard, lost a skate-off to Anton and Annette. It meant that Dan has placed fourth in the competition.

Previous weeks on the new series have seen the likes of EastEnders star Charlie Brooks, the Traitors finalist Mollie Pearce and Love Island’s Chris Taylor voted off the show. This year’s line-up had also featured actor Chelsee Healey, comedian Josh Jones, reality TV star Ferne McCann and retired rower Steve Redgrave. Whilst Paralympic cyclist Sarah Storey had dropped out just weeks before the series ‘ launch, with her sharing that she had fractured her ankle.

There’s speculation that tonight’s DOI episode could be its last. Over the past two years, the ITV show has lost more than one million viewers, with the 2023 launch episode being watched by 4.1 million people. However, this series has not made it over 3 million, according to official overnight ratings from BARB. Channel chiefs believe the only way to justify the huge costs involved in making Dancing on Ice going forward is by attracting a blockbuster audience, which isn’t happening.

One source said: “There are very real fears this is the end of the road for Dancing on Ice. It’s had a good run for nearly 20 years and has a very loyal set of viewers who really love it but the sad truth is there’s just not enough of them. We need bums on seats but the ratings have dropped to a point where it’s difficult to justify the cost”.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard issues stark warning to Luigi Mangione over worrying fan mail

Gypsy Rose Blanchard didn’t hold back when addressing the overwhelming amount of fan mail pouring in for Luigi Mangione.

Mangione, accused of assassinating UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on December 4, 2024, has amassed a devoted following. Supporters have rallied outside courtrooms, flooded him with letters, and even raised funds for his legal defense.

The sheer volume of mail has reportedly become so overwhelming that Mangione has asked fans to limit the number of photos they send. Gypsy, 33, who spent nearly nine years behind bars for her role in her mother’s death, warned the accused healthcare CEO killer to be cautious when responding to letters from admirers. Drawing from her own experience as a high-profile inmate, she emphasized that not everyone reaching out has good intentions.

“There’s a lot of strange people out there”, she told TMZ while passing through Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on Thursday. “You have to be able to read people, to figure out who’s real and who’s just in it for clout”.

Blanchard acknowledged that letters can make time in prison more bearable – she even met her partner, Ken Urker, through prison correspondence. However, when asked if she had any advice for Mangione on finding love while incarcerated, she laughed and quickly shut the idea down. Her broader advice for navigating prison life? “Appreciate the support, ignore the critics, and focus on doing your time”.

One TikTok user, Holli Lambirth, claims to have exchanged letters with the 26-year-old former University of Pennsylvania student. She shared a handwritten note allegedly from him, in which he joked about his infamous arrest at a McDonald’s. The message, dated February 13, described his time in isolation, but skeptics were quick to question its authenticity, pointing out grammatical errors they believed Mangione wouldn’t make.

Beyond fan letters, Mangione has been able to communicate with the outside world through a website run by his legal team. In a statement, he expressed gratitude for the widespread support, saying he was deeply moved by letters from people of all backgrounds. While he admitted he couldn’t respond to most messages, he assured supporters that he reads every one.

“I am overwhelmed by – and grateful for – everyone who has written to share their stories and express their support”, he said. “This kindness has transcended political, racial, and class divides, with letters coming in from across the country and around the world. Though I can’t reply to most, please know that I read them all. I look forward to hearing more in the future”.

Liam Gallagher hits out at child support claims amid new legal battle with Liza Ghorbani

Liam Gallagher has hit out at child support claims amid his fresh legal battle with the mother of his youngest child.

The Oasis frontman is reportedly embroiled in a bitter court battle with ex Liza Ghorbani, the mother of his 12-year-old daughter Gemma, after she recently launched a new claim for increased child support in a New York court. According to sources, the 51-year-old, who had a brief affair with the Manchester-born rocker when she interviewed him in 2010, has demanded more child support money ahead of Liam’s big Oasis reunion tour.

The gigs have reportedly landed Liam and brother Noel Gallagher, 57, a whopping £50 million. Sources claim that Liza is “taking advantage” of Liam’s fortune. They went on to add that he’s “already generous” and has continued to meet his child support obligations.

After news of the fresh legal battle emerged, Liam took to social media to hit out at his ex, and revealed the staggering amount of child support he was already paying to Liza. “GOLD DIGGER”, he posted on X/Twitter. “And it’s 300 grand a year not 36 grand a year get your SUMS right LG x”.

The case, filed in the New York Supreme Court under “Liza Ghorbani vs. Liam Gallagher – child support”, marks the first legal move since a confidential settlement was reached in 2015. At that time, reports suggested Ghorbani was receiving around £3, 000 per month. Reflecting on the resolution, she previously stated: “I’m just really relieved this ordeal is over for the sake of my daughter”.

A source close to the singer told The Sun on Sunday that Liza is “taking advantage” of the rocker’s recent fortunes. “He has always met his child support obligations, and they’re already generous”, they said. “This claim is asking for an excessive amount of money, and it’s definitely added some stress before the tour”.

The duo reportedly reached a confidential settlement in 2015, and at the time, it was suggested Liza was receiving around £3, 000 per month from Liam. The new case has been called “silly” by insiders close to the singer.

The duo first met in 2010, and after a brief romance, Liza gave birth to their daughter Gemma. However, Liam was forced to admit to being Gemma’s father in 2013 after Liza filed a £2 million lawsuit over allegations he had failed to pay child support or attend hearings related to financially supporting their daughter. The lawsuit led to the breakdown of his marriage to then-wife Nicole Appleton, and he used his divorce as the reason why he was unable to pay child support at the time.

The rocker has four children with four different women, and fathered his first child, daughter Molly, 26, following an affair with singer Lisa Moorish just two months after he married actress Patsy Kensit. He also shares son Lennon, 25, with former EastEnders star Patsy, and son Gene, 23, with All Saints singer Nicole.

She joked, “I’m so happy to be back at SNL. The last time I hosted was in 2013. And every aspect of my performance aged amazingly. Because there’s no need to Google SNL 2013 featuring R. Kelly”.

After receiving laughs from the studio audience, the singer continued, “I won’t bring it up. Because that would be bad”. Changing the subject to her acting career, Lady Gaga recently starred in Joker: Folie à Deux, which received negative reviews from critics and was even awarded two Razzie awards, a satirical award show that marks the worst films of the year.

Taking the criticism on the chin, she continued, “Anyway, I’m an actor now. And I’ve been very diligent about selecting films that would showcase my craft as a serious actor… films such as Joker 2”. Apparently people thought it was awesome, “she said”. Joaquin and I even got nominated for a Razzie, which is an award for the worst film of the year. We won. For worst screen duo. But joke’s on them. I love winning things. “

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, has been promoting her new album over recent weeks and opened up to the New York Times in a new interview about being in a positive space after a tough time for her mental health.

I was not deeply in touch with reality for a while. It took me out of life in a big way, and after a lot of years of hard work I got myself back. “

Admitting that meeting her now-fiancé, Michael Polansky, marked a turning point, she shared”, It was a hard time, and it was actually really special when I met my partner because when I met Michael, I was in a much better place, but I remember him saying to me, pretty early on, ‘ I know you could be a lot happier than you are’. “
