Céline Dion makes surprise on-stage appearance at the Grammy Awards
Global News
Céline Dion appeared happy and glowing as she addressed the audience through teary eyes.
Canadians were waiting in anticipation for one of their own — Joni Mitchell — to take the Grammy Awards stage on Sunday night, but it was Céline Dion that pulled out the night’s biggest surprise.
The Quebec chanteuse took to the stage to present the award for Album of the Year, looking resplendent in a white gown, sparkling statement necklace and a deep yellow overcoat.
“Thank you all,” Dion told the crowd as she appeared on stage, smiling through teary eyes. “I love you right back.”
“When I say that I’m happy to be here, I really mean it from my heart.”
She continued: “Those who have been blessed enough to be here at the Grammy Awards must never take for granted the love and joy music brings to our lives and to people around the world.”
And, noting that she was on stage to present the same award that Diana Ross and Sting presented to her 27 years ago, she called out Taylor Swift’s name as winner of Album of the Year.
About halfway through Sunday’s broadcast The Hollywood Reporter spotted Dion waiting for an elevator at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, where the Grammy Awards were held, accompanied by her stylist and a garment bag full of gowns.
