Taylor Swift appears to have addressed speculation that she “snubbed” singing legend Celine Dion on the Grammys stage — with a photo emerging of the pair embracing after the ceremony.
Dion appeared at the music industry’s night of nights for the first time since announcing her Stiff Persons Syndrome diagnosis in 2022.

The Canadian songstress received a standing ovation as she took to the stage to present the biggest award of the night, Album of the Year.
But Swift — who made Grammys history by winning the category for the fourth time — failed to acknowledge Dion as she accepted the gong from the longer-established singer.
After her name was announced, Swift dragged fellow nominee Lana Del Rey up on stage, along with her album producer.
But when Dion handed Swift her statuette, the “Anti Hero” singer failed to look at or speak to her, simply taking the award from her before starting her speech.
Swift didn’t mention Dion or hug her, as often happens when stars take to the stage to accept their awards.
The internet saw the action as a snub, and social media was abuzz with comments.
But it seems there were no hard feelings between Dion and Swift — with a photo later emerging of the pair hugging backstage.
“I don’t think Céline cared and they talked backstage afterwards,” a source told Page Six of the moment.
“But Céline was just gracious and happy to be there. Of course, the right thing would have been for Taylor to acknowledge her, like Adele did years ago.
“She wanted to show everyone that she’s doing alright. She has good days and bad days … it’s a painful disease, but it’s not a death sentence.
“She’s clearly capable of doing things and she wanted to show everyone that she’s back. She looked fantastic.
“The hope is that she will be able to perform.”
The last time Dion presented the Grammy for Song of the Year in 2017, winner Adele hugged her before gesturing to Dion and remarking, “I’m not worthy”.
Dion announced her Stiff Person syndrome diagnosis in 2022, an incurable disease that leaves suffers feeling like “human statues”.
The diagnosis makes it difficult for her to sing, with questions still unanswered about whether she will ever be able to perform live again.
