Celine Dion is back on stage in Las Vegas after a viral infection.
The illness had forced the singer to cancel six shows in April, and refused to take medication because it could have dried out her vocal chords.
She is now feeling "95% better", and decided to "take a chance" on performing again.
"It's hard to do a show, but it's harder not to do it," she said. "When you come back, you're afraid. You're scared and you're like, kind of ashamed. Then you talk to yourself and say, 'You're a human being, it can happen'."
