'Skeletal' Celine Dion stuns fans in final Vegas show

Five years and 713 shows has taken its toll on Celine Dion as the gaunt-looking singer took her final bow in Las Vegas.

Performing to a sold-out crowd in Caesars Palace, the Canadian diva's collar-bones and sparrow-like chest proved she deserved a break.

Dressed in a plunging white gown, the singer appeared to have lost her previous curves and looked drained and haggard.

After a long standing ovation from dedicated fans, Celine was joined onstage by her husband and manager Rene Angelil and their seven-year-old son Rene Charles-Angelil.

Although the show was initially panned by critics it has went on to be a resounding success, making her £125million, and testimony to the singer's ability as a performer.

Celebrity fans of the show include Prince, who has been three times, and Justin Timberlake.

Despite this, in an interview with the Guardian last week she admitted she was ready for a break: "In the beginning I needed to prove myself to the industry. Not any more."

Standing in the wings watching the rest of the cast take their bow, the Think Twice chanteuse struggled to hold back tears.
