Celine Dion was spotted enthusiastically enjoying Metallica's latest Sphere performance in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

The Grammy-winning singer was seen headbanging, clapping along, and playing air guitar to Metallica's classic hit "Enter Sandman" from a balcony seat alongside actor and musician Jack Black.

Videos from the show quickly captured fans' attention, showing Dion fully immersed in the high-energy atmosphere as the band performed on the Sphere's iconic stage.

During one memorable moment, Dion mimicked the guitar riffs while Black sang along to the lyrics. As the song reached its guitar solo, the pair raised their hands and clapping above their heads with the crowd.

The appearance marked Dion's second Metallica concert of the week. Just days earlier, she attended another Sphere performance, where she was seen playing air bass during Metallica's popular "Kirk and Rob Doodle" segment. Her sons, Eddy and Nelson, joined her for that outing, along with several celebrity guests reportedly including Slash and members of No Doubt.

Dion's connection to Metallica stretches back years. Earlier this year, she included the band's 1996 song "Until It Sleeps" on a personal playlist and has previously revealed that her son Eddy is a devoted Metallica fan.

The singer's public appearances have drawn increased attention following her diagnosis with stiff person syndrome, which she disclosed in 2022. After taking time away from performing, Dion returned to full-length live shows earlier this year with a successful concert run in Paris.

Dion has not performed in Las Vagas since concluding her celebrated Caesars Palace residency in 2019. For now, she appears content enjoying concerts as a fan, and judging by her enthusiastic reaction at the Sphere, few people were having more fun at Metallica's show than she was.
