Renowned entertainment writer John Katsilometes suggested in the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Dion's energetic participation in Perry's act indicates she may be ready for a successful comeback to her own residency. Video from the event shows a joyous Dion with other celebs, like Zoe Saldana and Cameron Diaz with her husband Benji Madden, all of whom are clearly loving the music.
Regarding Meghan and Harry, insiders said they were seated in the VIP section, close to Dion and co. but in a separate section. Their evening proceeded pretty quietly, as Meghan struck up a discussion and Harry seemed aloof even in the midst of the throng.
Meghan made an awkward attempt to talk to Dion earlier in the evening. Ignoring the attention of the throng, Meghan and Harry trailed Dion into the aisle in an attempt to appear as part of her entourage. Meghan's attempt to attract Dion's attention was evident in an unguarded moment, but sadly, it was not returned. To the surprise of witnesses, Meghan was heard jokingly asking, "Isn't she near dying?" in reference to Dion's health.—a query that apparently made its way to Dion's ears along with many others.
Meghan's lack of etiquette, which was exposed by a blind item, damaged her reputation by raising questions about her entitlement complex and lack of concern for other people's welfare. It appears that the Duchess's attempt to command attention failed, as Dion is now squarely in the spotlight.
The episode has added fire to the theory that the affluent of Hollywood is pulling away from the Sussexes, with famous people and companies like Gwyneth Paltrow, Audible, and even Dior attempting to distance themselves from their connections. Harry must find this sudden drop in social stature startling given his previous royal rank, to which celebrities and dignitaries once paid respect. They seem eager to separate themselves now, which is a significant shift in the couple's social narrative.
