New data indicates that Canadian singer Celine Dion has attracted 1,147,145 followers in just the last four days since her memorable return to the stage at the Olympics opening ceremony last Friday. In the past month, her follower count has soared by 1,541,940.
Social Blade, a tool for analyzing social media accounts, tracked Dion’s Instagram growth after her performance at the Paris Olympics. Using Influencer Marketing Hub’s Instagram earnings calculator, experts have projected how much Dion could earn from sponsored posts.
Dion's impressive follower increase includes 1,147,145 new followers in just four days. The Quebec-born singer, who gained international fame by winning the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest, has released numerous French and English-language albums and won five Grammy awards.
In 2022, Dion was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS), a rare neurological disorder, leading her to pause her decades-long career. Nevertheless, she made a triumphant comeback, closing the 2024 Olympics opening ceremony with a heartfelt rendition of Edith Piaf’s "L’Hymne à l’amour."
Fans and critics alike have praised this performance. Since July 26, Dion has gained an additional 1,147,145 Instagram followers, bringing her total to 8.25 million. This growth suggests she could earn up to $26,000 for a single sponsored Instagram post.
Follower counts for Celine Dion were obtained from Social Blade on July 25 and compared with data from July 29, alongside figures from her Instagram account. The Influencer Marketing Calculator was used to estimate her potential earnings from a single sponsored post as of July 29.
