Celine Dion surprised her fans by dousing herself with Gatorade on Sunday.
The 56-year-old singer, who recently criticized Donald Trump for using her songs at a campaign rally without permission, had her orange sports drink poured all over her during a surprise appearance on the Sunday Night Football intro.
He referenced his song It’s All Coming Back to Me Now while talking about his ‘passion’ for the Dallas Cowboys-Pittsburgh Steelers rivalry while sporting a Super Bowl XXX sweater.
“I think what I love most about this game is its power to connect who we are and who we were, to show that our most powerful memories and our most enduring loves can stay with us forever. You know what I’m talking about, right ? he said as his 1996 hit played.
“Sometimes, some nights, it all comes back,” he added. ‘The love story. Well, maybe I don’t “love it” like I usually sing about it. But still… work with me here.’

Comparing the song to his emotional ties to the sport, he said: “I mean, ‘When you touch me like that, when you hold me like that.'” It kind of fits, doesn’t it?
But really, what beautiful passion it produced, what painful heartbreak it revealed, so, so long ago. Like so many old loves, it always feels good when you get back together. Don’t you think?
The rivalry between the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers has been alive since 1976, when the Steelers beat the Cowboys (21-17) during Super Bowl X and Super Bowl XIII (35-31) in 1979.
But in 1996, the Cowboys reigned supreme in Super Bowl XXX, beating the Steelers 27-17.
‘Like tonight, evoking the kind of magic they once produced. The Cowboys and the Steelers, a timeless classic on Sunday night,” said the My Heart Will Go On singer.
Later in the video, fans can see Dion looking shocked as coolers full of Gatorade are spilled on her.
She was also shown cheering and enjoying the moment while sporting her soaked sweatshirt as the liquid dripped from her face.
Earlier on Sunday, NBC Sports poked fun at her appearance by sharing a clip of the singer wearing the Superbowl sweatshirt in her tik tok account.

They wrote in the caption of the teaser clip: “It all comes back to Sunday night.”
The Canadian singer’s guest appearance comes after she performed Hymne à l’amour for the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
In 2022, the singer announced that she was diagnosed with a serious neurological condition: stiff person syndrome.
This rare disorder has side effects that appear as muscle spasms and can affect your ability to sing.
