Grammy award-winning singer Céline Dion has been doing ballet since 2016, which she claimed is one reason for her weight loss.
How Ballet Helped Dion Lose Weight
Dion had always loved to dance, which she claims is in her DNA. She always dreamt of being a ballerina, and the singer finally turned her dream into a reality in 2016 after her husband's death. René Angélil, Dion's husband, died in 2016 due to throat cancer. After this traumatizing event, Dion put her heart, mind, and soul to her new passion; ballet.

Dion had been scrutinized for her appearance by body shamers. However, she had shut down all rumors of her being anorexic and having eating disorders in an interview with the People. She said that she has been working hard and doing ballet four times a week along with basic stretches and workouts, which is the main reason for her weight loss.
"People say, 'She's a lot thinner,' but I'm working hard. I like to move and (weight loss) comes with it."
She also commented in another interview with Danny Wootton that she is doing this for herself, and if people like it, they like it, and if not, she is to be left alone to do what she wants.
Pepe Muñoz, a close friend of Dion, is the influence and motivation behind her pursuing this newly found passion. She has been dancing and training with him. The 51-year-old singer had always been an excellent dancer, and it is no surprise that she is good at ballet too.
The training has definitively paid off, looking at the photos and videos Dion has been posting on her social media.
