Celine Dion’s powerful documentary “I Am: Celine Dion,” now available on Prime Video, provides a raw and intimate look into her personal battle with stiff person syndrome. In addition to bravely sharing her story with the world, the film highlights her musical legacy with renditions of her classic hits, including “My Heart Will Go On.”
The documentary has also brought attention to another uplifting ballad: pop singer Wyn Starks’ 2022 hit “Who I Am.” During a difficult therapy session, Dion is asked to sing one of her favorite songs. Fighting back tears, she delivers an intimate, heartfelt performance of the track, displaying the strength of her talent even in the most painful moments.
This poignant performance serves as a symbol of hope in the documentary, sparking a global response and genuine adoration for “Who I Am.” The song has reached new chart positions worldwide, including #1 on the iTunes R&B/Soul Chart in the UK, US, Australia, and Ireland. Starks’ 2022 album “Black Is Gold” has also gained worldwide attention, peaking at #8.
Renowned for his fusion of pop, rock, and soul with emotionally charged lyrics and an empowering spirit, the America’s Got Talent star is delighted by the response, calling Dion’s love for his song “a full circle moment.” Noting Dion as one of his key musical influences, he expressed his pride in the unexpected rendition and admiration for her bravery: “I have no words to describe how I’m feeling. I’ll be on cloud nine for the rest of my life!”
