Celine Dion has a message for her critics and body shamers

"Is there anything wrong about my body," the music legend told ET's Lauren Zima on opening night of her Courage Tour in Quebec, Canada, as she flexed her bicep. Dion, 51, has recently faced criticism over her slimmer appearance, however, she's developed a thick skin over the years.

"I do ballet. I do a lot of stretching and I work out because it helps my mind, body and soul," she shared. "When you go back, when I was 12 years old, my face was rounder because you have more fat when you're younger…But I've always been very thin"

Your body is not your biggest problem. It’s your screwed up brain.

For all I know, the Vital Records Department where I was born does, too, but I don't care if the whole world knows I'm 53.

Well these people care, a lot. I saw Kim Novak on CBS Sunday Morning, she must think having a grotesque face job makes people think she is younger.

She was tied down with her husband’s illness for quite some time. I recall reading after he died, she really got heavy (haha) into the Parisian haute couture scene.
My theory is that in that environment, she consciously decided to get model-thin regardless of how bad it looks at her age.

“OMG! She looks like she’s at death’s door!OMG!”

Anorexics/bulemics genuinely believe they are morbidly obese,

She never had anything going for her in the looks department, imho but she looks like she’s been rode and put up wet.....she needs to put some meat on those old bones....crap! She looks like Karen Carpenter did before her untimely demise.

Actually she was horribly thin. But when she was elder, she was suffering from ascites in the gut which killed her. Swollen gut, skinny everywhere.

No it is not.

Older people may have almost one third more fat compared to when they were younger.

And 70 million obese adults would disagree with you.

You may lose muscle mass and some weight, but not “fat”.

What in the world of all that is good and holy does she SEE when she looks in a mirror??! And the clothes she wears just adds to the “crazy woman who lives in the attic” look. This is the most disturbing photo of an anorexic woman I’ve ever seen.

When someone becomes anorexic and emaciated, they tend to look years or decades older than they really are. Celine looked her age until her radical weight loss.

During Karen Carpenter’s last days, she looked much older than she really was.
