Cher Wears Sheer, Cut-Up Dress for Surprise Grammys 2026 Appearance

Cher just made a surprise appearance at the Grammys!

The 79-year-old legendary entertainer was welcomed to the stage at the end of the night at the 2026 Grammy Awards on Sunday (February 1) at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

Cher, who won a Lifetime Achievement Award this year, opened up about her struggles in the music industry and how she made a comeback by becoming the first artist to use auto-tune.

“Never give up on your dream, no matter what happens,” she told all the music artists in the audience, which got her a second standing ovation.

After her speech, Cher walked off the stage and was called back to the podium as she forgot about presenting the winner for Record of the Year.

The award went to the song “Luther” by Kendrick Lamar & SZA, but Cher accidentally thought the award went to Luther Vandross, who actually died back in 2005. Thankfully, the song is actually a tribute to the late star.
