Looks like Céline Dion is kicking off 2026 with a brand-new resolution — and it’s one no one saw coming.

The iconic singer has officially decided it’s time to enter the world of TikTok. Yes, really.

The Power of Love hitmaker had fans doing a double take after she casually dropped the news on Instagram, revealing that she’s joining the platform this year. Naturally, the internet (including our very own netizens) wasted no time getting excited.

Céline is known for her timeless hit songs such as My Heart Will Go On, I’m Alive, A New Day Has Come, and Goodbye, just name a few.

How the TikTok idea came about

According to Céline, the idea of TikTok didn’t occur to her at first. Her team encouraged her to join and promised to take care of everything.

As for whether she’s a TikTok pro already? Not quite. Céline admitted she’s still figuring out how this whole TikTok universe works — but something tells us fans won’t mind learning right along with her.

Here’s exactly what she had to say in her caption:

“They told me, “Celine, it’s time…” I asked, “Time for what?” Turns out…something completely new. My team then said they’d handle everything, handed me back my phone, and then quietly disappeared. So here I am, learning how this TikTok world works…one video at a time! Thank you for being here, I’m glad we’re here together. Celine xx…,” wrote Céline.

Now, let’s take a look at the video that officially sent fans into celebration mode:

And… of course, the internet couldn’t stay quiet. Whether it’s good news or shocking news, netizens always have something to say — and Céline’s TikTok reveal was no exception.
