The 55-year-old songstress appeared at the 66th Annual Grammys to deliver the night’s last award.
The five-time Grammys winner took the stage to present Album of the Year, an accolade she had received 27 years ago to Taylor Swift.
Dion received a standing ovation from the star studded audience.
Speaking at the event, she said “Thank you all, I love you right back. When I say that I’m happy to be here, I really mean it from my heart.”
In 2022, Celine Dion was diagnosed with an incurable neurological disease called Stiff Person Syndrome, SPS.
Though there is no cure for the disease that turns sufferers into human statues, work can be done to slow the progression. The disease causes her muscles to stiff uncontrollably.
The 54-year-old singer revealed her health condition when she addressed her fans in a tearful Instagram, as she confessed it had forced her to cancel her European tour.
Celine first hinted at her health woes in January when she cancelled the North American dates of her Courage world tour from March 9 to April 22, 2022.
The announcement came three months after she had to cancel the start of her Las Vegas comeback residency over the same health issue.
Celine has become known as ‘Queen Of Las Vegas’ because of her enormously successful residencies there.
After retiring her famous Caesars Palace residency in 2019, she was coaxed back to Sin City to perform at the new Resorts World on the Strip.
