Celine then broke down in tears while she admitted that she will not let the disease get the better of her. She said: “I still see myself dance and sing. I always find plan b and plan c, you know. That’s me. If I can’t run, I’ll walk. If I can’t walk, I’ll crawl. But I won’t stop. I won’t stop.” Celine also has revealed that she was taking high doses of valium in order to try and treat her SPS and ‘could have died’ as a result. The legendary singer opened up about how she struggled to keep performing for her fans while her symptoms were worsening, leaving her taking high doses of the drug to try and combat the disease. Sobbing as she described her battle she said: “I was taking 80mg to 90mg of valium a day. That’s just one medicine. I don’t want to sound dramatic but I could have died. I was taking those medicines because I needed to walk. I need to be able to swallow. I needed medicine to function. One more pill, two more pills, five more pills. Too many pills. The show must go on.” Celine also described how she started to lie to hide her crushing diagnosis from her fans as she continued to lose her ability to sing and perform She said: “When I had to cancel shows you know we had to tell the crowd why. People why. You know, lying. I can’t lie anymore. From a sinus infection to an ear infection to whatever. “Sometimes I would point my microphone to the audience and get them to sing it. There’s moments where I cheated and tapped on the microphone like it’s the microphones fault. There was also moments where we had to stop the show, quick change and I never came back. The lying is too heavy now.” Follow Mirror Celebs on TikTok , Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads .
