Last night, the Dallas Cowboys traveled to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers for Sunday Night Football, the primetime game of the week. The Cowboys and Steelers, two of the NFL’s largest and most popular franchises, had never played in this spot before last night. The league wanted to make this event a spectacle and what better way to do that than to bring in…Celine Dion?
Before kick off the NFL usually brings in former players or coaches to give a history of the matchup and hype fans up for the game. Last night, fans were shocked to see Celine Dion, who is a evidently a passionate NFL fan, as the person telling them about the historic matchup between Pittsburgh and Dallas.
As her hit song, “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” plays Dion says, “I think my favorite thing about this game is its power to connect who we are to who we were, to prove our most powerful memories, our most enduring loves can stay with us forever. You know what I’m talking about, right? Sometimes, some nights, it all just comes back. The love affair. Well, maybe not ‘love’ the way I usually sing about it. But still… work with me here.”
Her song continued to play as the broadcast showed highlights from some of the most memorable games in NFL history. She continues saying, “Like tonight, evoking the kind of magic they once produced. The Cowboys and the Steelers, a timeless classic on Sunday Night.”
The video ends as most Super Bowls do, with a Gatorade shower. In an unexpected closing, Celine Dion gets doused in freezing-cold Gatorade as she pumps her fist and laughs.
