Celine Dion presents album of the year to Taylor Swift

Celine Dion took the stage to present the Grammy for album of the year to Taylor Swift for "Midnights."

"When I say that I'm happy to be here, I really mean it from my heart," Dion said before presenting the award. "Those who have been blessed enough to be here at the Grammy Awards must never take for granted the tremendous love and joy that music brings to our lives and to people all around the world."

Taking the stage to accept the award, Swift said, "I would love to tell you that this is the best moment of my life, but I feel this happy when I finish a song, or when I crack the code to a bridge that I love, or when I'm shot-listing a music video, or when I'm rehearsing with my dancers or my band, or getting ready to go to Tokyo to play a show."

"For me, the award is the work," she continued. "All I want to do is keep being able to do this. I love it so much. It makes me so happy."

With this win, Swift becomes the first artist to win in the category four times. Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon have each won album of the year three times.

Other nominees in the category included Jon Batiste for "World Music Radio," boygenius for "The Record," Miley Cyrus for "Endless Summer Vacation," Lana Del Rey for "Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd," Janelle Monáe for "The Age of Pleasure," Olivia Rodrigo for "GUTS" and SZA for "SOS."
