Céline Dion Channels the Grinch in Christmas Eve Instagram Skit

The festive parody marks a lighthearted public appearance during a period of limited outings following her 2022 stiff-person syndrome diagnosis.

Overview

  • Céline Dion posted a Dec. 24 Instagram video in full Grinch costume, complete with green makeup and a Santa suit, seated by a fireplace with a dog wearing a single antler in a nod to Max.
  • She opened and closed the clip by singing lines from her signature cover of All by Myself and captioned it, "Silent night? Not on my watch..."
  • The performance parodied the Grinch’s monologue, listing a tongue‑in‑cheek schedule that included vocal exercises, waking her children, solving world hunger, jazzercize, dinner alone, and time to scroll TikTok.
  • Coverage highlighted the homage to Jim Carrey’s 2000 portrayal in How the Grinch Stole Christmas, framing the post as a playful holiday tribute.
  • Reports noted Dion’s recent low profile since her 2022 diagnosis, with select outings in 2025 including Coldplay’s tour in June and Paul McCartney’s Las Vegas concert in October.
