As things stand, I can’t stand here and say to you: “Yes, in four months.’ I don’t know… My body will tell me. On the other hand, I don’t just want to wait.” Continuing the conversation she added ‘I Am: Céline Dion’ promises to be a touching and inspirational documentary, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs of one of the world’s most beloved music icons.
