Céline Dion made a rare public appearance Sunday when she took the stage at the 66th Grammy Awards to present the ceremony’s top prize to Taylor Swift, who many believed snubbed Dion when she accepted the night’s final award.

The “My Heart Will Go On” and “The Power of Love” singer was greeted by a standing ovation when she emerged on the Crypto.com Arena stage to present the prize for album of the year — the ceremony’s final award.

Dion’s surprise appearance was a welcome sight during a marquee night for women, but it also came more than a year after she publicly shared that she had been diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that prevents her from singing in her usual way. The disease also resulted in her canceling her 2024 Courage World Tour dates because of her continuing health concerns.

While the five-time Grammy winner has shared periodic health updates, in December her sister Claudette Dion made it sound as if the singer’s condition had become more dire, telling Canadian media that the Grammy winner “doesn’t have control of her muscles” and that “there are some who have lost hope.” This was after Dion in November made her first public appearance in more than three years to attend a hockey game in Las Vegas
