Stiff-Person Syndrome affects one in a million people. The star vocalist has cancelled performances and said she is receiving support from doctors to improve her condition. Acclaimed singer Celine Dion has halted her upcoming tour and cancelled shows in Europe after she was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder. The Canadian singer announced on Thursday that she had been diagnosed with Stiff-Person Syndrome, which causes spasms that affect her ability to walk and sing. What did Celine say? "Unfortunately, the spasms affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes causing difficulties when I walk and not allowing me to use my vocal cords to sing the way I'm used to,'' Dion said in an emotional video posted to Instagram. "It hurts me to tell you today this means I won't be ready to restart my tour in Europe in February," she added. The "Courage" world tour —  which was halted at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 — was due to continue in Europe in early 2023. Most of those concerts have now been postponed until 2024, while others have been cancelled altogether. What do we know about the disorder? Stiff-Person Syndrome causes muscle stiffness and spasms. The exact cause of the condition is unknown, and there is no cure. It affects around one in a million people, normally between the ages of 30 to 60, and affects twice as many women as men. The 54-year-old singer is receiving support from doctors and her children to improve her condition. "All I know is singing, it's what I've done all my life and it's what I love to do the most," Dion said, breaking into tears. The performer from Quebec rose to worldwide stardom in the 1990s with hits like "The Power of Love," "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" and "Titanic" theme "My Heart Will Go On."

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw Pyongyang's latest ICBM launch with his daughter in tow, state media has said. North Korea unveiled the little-known daughter of its leader Kim Jong Un at the Friday launch of Pyongyang's newest intercontinental ballistic missile. State media KCNA reported on Saturday that Kim attended the launch "together with his beloved daughter and wife". Pictures released by the North's main Rodong Sinmun newspaper showed a young girl in a white puffer jacket and red shoes walking hand-in-hand with Kim ahead of a huge missile atop a launch truck. The latest pictures have attracted attention on a fourth-generation member of the dynastic family that has ruled North Korea for over seven decades as it is very rare for the state media to mention Kim's children. Experts said that it is the first official confirmation that Kim had a daughter. No further information on the girl, like her name and age, was provided. The North Korean leader supervised the launch of a missile on Friday, which KCNA said was the Hwasong-17. Analysts have dubbed it as "monster missile." KCNA said that the launch of the "new-type ICBM" was successful. Kim said the test of a newly developed intercontinental ballistic missile confirmed that Pyongyang has another "reliable and maximum capacity" weapon to contain outside threats. He warned the US and its allies that what he called their provocative steps would lead to "their self-destruction," state media said following the launch. The private life of the reclusive country's 38-year-old leader has been a keen area of outside interest—with much of it still unknown. South Korean media has reported that Kim married Ri Sol Ju in 2009 and the couple have three children born in 2010, 2013 and 2017. The identities of Kim's children are of particular interest as he is yet to publicly anoint his heir apparent.
