Céline Dion is opening up about her decision to keep her coat on during her surprise appearance at the 2024 Grammys; she emotionally explains that it “made me feel better.”
During a recent interview with Vogue for their ‘ Life in Looks ‘ series on YouTube, Céline Dion not only reflected on her fashion choices over the years, but the 56-year-old Canadian legend also took the time to emotionally open up about her mustard yellow Valentino coat that she wore to the 2024 Grammys and never took off.
Recalling her look from the February award show, Dion said, “It was very nerve-wracking, but at the same time, a big honor. That magic. That excitement. To see the fans, to see the crowd. To see show business again.” The five-time Grammy winner, who was styled by celebrity stylist Law Roach , revealed that the coat she wore on stage to present Taylor Swift with the Album of the Year award not only served as a stylish addition to her outfit but also served as an emotional garment.
Dion continued telling Vogue’s series, “I was like, ‘You can walk onstage with a coat? Oh yeah! You can do whatever you want in fashion, have a good time, wear that coat, own that coat, go for it. And it made me feel better for a moment to hold onto this coat, to hide myself a little bit from all these little things.”
During the interview, Dion began to sing the words from her 2019 song “Imperfections,” crooning, “I got my own imperfections. I got my own…I got my own, whole…” Then she stated, “So, we did it.”
Céline Dion also spoke about her surprising fans at the Grammys this year despite battling a rare and incurable neurological disorder called stiff-person syndrome (SPS), which she was diagnosed with in 2022. While presenting Taylor Swift the AOTY award, Dion was accompanied by her son, René-Charles Angélil , 23.
Dion said, “It took a lot, a lot out of me. But my son, René Charles, RC, came and gave me his support. And to present the award, the Album of the Year, to Taylor Swift. It was an honor because she’s having the time of her life and I’m the one who’s presenting it to her. But it’s always very, very touching when you have a standing ovation.”
