Celine Dion Air Guitars Her Fans in Rare Outing
Dion was spotted during an NHL game between the Boston Bruins and the New York Rangers (via SheKnows). When fans spotted her, she greeted them with a happy smile. After a while, she started playing air guitar and singing to Bon Jovi's "Livin' On A Prayer," reminding fans that she still knows how to have fun and is in good condition despite her harrowing health setback.
Her two sons, Eddy and Nelson, accompanied her to the game. Reportedly, she went to the Bruins locker room after the game and gave the players a pep talk before game time.
