Global music icon Celine Dion brought a dose of festive humor to her fans this Christmas Eve with a brilliantly playful social media post. The celebrated singer transformed into the classic holiday character, the Grinch, for a special video shared on her official Instagram account.
A Festive Transformation
On Wednesday, December 24th, Dion uploaded a clip that immediately captured the holiday spirit. She appeared fully dressed as the Grinch, seated cozily by a fireplace. Her costume was complete with the character's signature bright green makeup, creating a perfect and instantly recognizable look.
The video cleverly began with Dion talk-singing the poignant chorus of her famous hit, "All by Myself." This set the stage for what followed—a witty parody of a well-known monologue from the 2000 Jim Carrey film "How the Grinch Stole Christmas."
The Grinch's Busy Schedule
Holding a small dog adorned with antlers reminiscent of the Grinch's loyal dog, Max, Dion launched into her comedic routine. "The nerve of those Whos, inviting me down there on such short notice," she declared, mimicking the Grinch's signature grumpy tone. "Even if I wanted to go, my schedule wouldn't allow it!"
She then listed a series of mock appointments that blended absurdity with the relatable chaos of daily life:
- 4:00 — exercise my voice.
- 4:30 — wake my children up.
- 5:00 — solve world hunger. Tell no one.
- 5:30 — jazzercize.
- 6:30 — dinner with me. I can’t cancel that again!
- 7:00 — wrestle with my creative ideas.
Adding a Personal Twist
Dion didn't stop at the original script. She added her own modern and relatable twist to the monologue. "I'm booked!" she exclaimed. "Of course, if I bumped my creative ideas to 9:00, I'll still have time to lay in bed and scroll TikTok videos endlessly. Or I can just simply wish everyone a merry Christmas and a happy new year… boring!"
The video came full circle as she concluded by returning to "All by Myself," singing the iconic opening line: "When I was young, I never needed anyone." This light-hearted and creative post provided her global fanbase with a charming and unexpected holiday gift, showcasing her playful side during the festive season.
