On Instagram, she posted photos of herself from the '90s slicing into a birthday cake, and wrote, "I’m not counting the years, but I’m still eating cake for sure! Thanks for all the birthday wishes!"

On top of that, Céline says she's excited about her upcoming movie debut in the film Text for You, alongside Priyanka Chopra and Sam Heughan, and resuming her Courage tour. And there's more.

"We have a few other new great projects which we’ll be announcing sometime in the next few months," she teases. "There’s a lot happening!
