The My Heart Will Go On singer, on Saturday, September 12, performed her first full concert in six years at Plénitude Arena in Nanterre, a western suburb of Paris, France, leaving fans emotional and excited at the same time.

At her first-ever show of the new residency, the Canadian singer captivated fans with a more than 20 songs setlist, making the experience truly enchanting.

She wiped her tears, took a deep breath and let herself take in the moment she had waited years to finally experience.

"I had promised myself not to cry. I don't keep my promises. But I'm so happy to see you all. I missed you. I'm going to sing like you without crying," the 58-year-old singer told the crowd.

She continued, "I made a promise. I made a promise to come back, to be back on stage, so here I am, singing for you and singing for me, singing live! Thank you so very much for your support, your patience, and if I may say so, I am everything I am because you loved me.”
