Celine Dion Handles Fan Who Jumped Onstage In Sweetest Way Possible

Being a famous entertainer definitely comes with its own on-the-job hazards. For example, you may have to deal with unruly fans. Celine Dion recently dealt with this problem when an apparently intoxicated woman decided to come on stage during one of her concerts in Las Vegas.

Typically, anyone who rushes the stage at a concert get swiftly carried away by security. But Dion decided to handle her unexpected guest with a little more class. The singer kept her composure and even took some time to talk to the woman. That’s a pretty kind response, especially when you see the size of the security guards waiting eagerly to escort the fan away!

Check out video of the whole incident below, captured by another person at the concert on Jan. 5.

The person who posted the clip to YouTube explained the context of the encounter in his description:

“During last night’s Celine Dion show in Las Vegas, Celine brought a woman on stage, not knowing the woman was drunk and had some issues: her son just had a bone marrow transplant and she wanted to tell everyone to be a donor.” The user praised Dion for her compassionate response, writing, “THIS is why Celine Dion is an absolutely angel. She sees the best in people and wants to help wherever and whoever she can.”

In the video, Dion embraces the woman and even waves her security detail off, telling the woman she will help her. She makes sure that the woman exits the stage safely, and then takes the opportunity to lay down in exhaustion, which results in laughter and cheers from the crowd.

Before launching into her next number, Dion acknowledged the incident and told the crowd, “Some people go through a lot. And some people need to talk. And I want to say thank you to all of you, because maybe for five minutes, we had given this lady a moment to talk.” She then checked to make sure the woman is OK.

Despite the interruption, the show went on apparently without another hitch. That’s a true professional!
