Celine Dion opened up about the difficulties of performing with Stiff Person Syndrome on “Today,” telling Hoda Kotb that singing is “like somebody’s strangling you.”
In the new interview, the full version of which will air June 11 at 10 p.m. ET on NBC, Dion demonstrated to Kotb the physical effects of Stiff Person Syndrome. Pressing inward on her throat with her fingers, Dion said “it’s like somebody’s pushing your larynx, pharynx, this way.”
Dion proceeded to speak in a breathy, restrained tone, saying: “It’s like you’re talking like that, and you cannot go higher or lower.”
