Celine Dion isn’t letting her stiff person syndrome diagnosis stop her from showing off her talents.
The “That’s the Way It Is” singer made a surprise appearance at the Boston Bruins game at TD Garden with her 13-year-old twin sons, Nelson and Eddy, on Thursday night and was caught by the cameras rocking out to Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer.”
The clip, shared to social media, showed Dion, 55, standing up and playing air guitar for the crowd.

Before the game, Dion and her sons entered the Bruins’ locker room, where the Grammy winner read the players’ starting lineup — and even cracked a joke about some of their states of undress.
Rather than simply read the names aloud, Dion sang some of their monikers and even poked fun at a few of them.
“Now, THAT’S a legendary lineup read,” the team wrote alongside the video.
Despite Dion’s unwavering support, the New York Rangers ultimately defeated the Bruins 5-2.
