LAS VEGAS — Celine Dion’s wide world of sports continued Sunday night on NBC.

The pop superstar was featured in a clip on “Sunday Night Football, leading into the Cowboys-Steelers game. She wore a white sweatshirt from Super Bowl XXX, the third matching those two marquee franchises. The Cowboys won the game, 27-17.

A montage of Cowboys-Steelers highlights from yesteryear plays to Dion’s hit “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now.”

“Like so many old flings, it always feels right when they are back together,” Dion says. “Don’t yo think?” This is in the middle of highlights of such stars as Franco Harris, Terry Bradshaw, Emmitt Smith and Roger Staubach.

The clip ends with Dion receiving a Gatorade (or similar beverage brand) shower. It’s similar to her water walk from her Colosseum show, but orange.

The segment was recorded at The Hideout studios in Henderson. Dion has reposted the 1 minute, 44-second video from NBC Sports on her X account.

 

Dion’s recent public appearances have been linked to sporting events.

At the Paris Olympics in July, the former Colosseum at Caesars Palace headliner appeared at the first stage of the Eiffel Tower, performing French favorite Édith Piaf’s “L’Hymne à l’amour” (“Hymn to Love”).

During the NHL Draft at Sphere in June, Dion called out the Montreal Canadiens’ first-round draft pick, Ivan Demidov. This was Dion’s first visit to the bulbous wonder.

Dion’s Olympic performance was the only time she has sung in public since March 8, 2020, at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. She announced in December 2022 she had been diagnosed with the rare neurological condition Stiff Person Syndrome, halting all upcoming residency and touring plans. AEG Presents officials have consistently said they are optimistic for her return, which would be staged at Resorts World Theatre.
