Céline Dion — icon, diva, goddess, legend, power dresser — is making headlines with her Courage World Tour, sharing tributes to her late mother, touching moments with fans, and even some hometown love. The latest Céline moment making waves on the interwebs is an encounter with a New York fan caught on camera. In the short clip, Freida Soloman, @musicbyfreida on Instagram, shares her rendition of "I Surrender" as the superstar prepares to drive away.
Céline tells her driver to "hold on" as Freida begins singing, sharing a fistbump and congratulating her on her performance at the end of the video.
The touching interaction quickly went viral, with many commenting on Dion's reaction to the sidewalk presentation.
Some people on social media have appropriated the video, shortening it to focus on a moment when Céline, face hidden behind large sunglasses and sharply framed by a new bob haircut, watches expressionless as Freida completes the chorus.
It's a screenshot of Céline's face that reached the likes of Ariana Grande, who shared the image, captionless, on Twitter.
The video is shared below with Freida's permission.

"I know I cracked a little bit. I was very scared and nervous."
"But it was such a surreal moment."
"There's always something in life that you can look at either in a positive way or a negative way."
