Celine Dion spotted playing air bass at Metallica concert

Canadian singer Celine Dion was filmed enthusiastically participating in a Metallica concert at the Sphere in Las Vegas on November 5. Observed from a private suite, Dion was seen mimicking the movements of bassist Robert Trujillo, performing what fans described as “air bass” during the band’s “Kirk and Rob Doodle” instrumental segment.

Dion attended the performance of the “Life Burns Faster” residency alongside her sons, Eddy and Nelson Angélil. Other notable figures reportedly present in the same suite included Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash and members of the band No Doubt.

The appearance follows Dion’s recent return to the stage in Paris after a hiatus caused by her diagnosis of stiff person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder. While known for her powerful ballads, Dion has previously expressed a long-standing affinity for hard rock and heavy metal, noting that such music helps her prepare for stadium performances.
