Taylor Swift snubbing Celine Dion is no big deal for the "My Heart Will Go On" singer.

The Grammy Awards 2024 viewers were left shocked when Swift allegedly snubbed Dion at the ceremony. They explained how the "Anti-Hero" singer only got the award from the presenter without looking into her eyes or even greeting her.

After the drama, photos of Swift and Dion hugging backstage emerged, ending the buzz between them.

Celine Dion Only Had One Goal at the Grammys

An insider recently shared what Dion really thought of the alleged snub at the Grammys, where she received a massive standing ovation from the artists, fans and viewers.

According to Page Six's source, they did not think the "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" singer "cared" about the buzz.

"I don't think Céline cared and they talked backstage afterwards. But Céline was just gracious and happy to be there," the source continued. "Of course, the right thing would have been for Taylor to acknowledge her, like Adele did years ago."

In 2017, Dion presented the Grammy for Song of the Year to Adele, and the "Hello" hitmaker warmly embraced her that time while making an "I'm not worthy" hand sign.

Instead of worrying about the baseless buzz involving Swift, Dion reportedly aimed at her goal.

"She wanted to show everyone that she's doing alright," the source added. "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 buzz between Swift and Dion, fortunately, ended when photos of them together were shared online. In one snap, Swift wrapped her arms around Dion, while the latter put her hand on her back.

In another photo, Swift put her arms on Dion and Rene-Charles Angelil's shoulders.

"The Power of Love" singer shared a similar sentiment in her message to the viewers before presenting awards and after the event.

"When I say, I'm happy to be here, I really mean it, from my heart," Dion said after her appearance at the ceremony. "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 people all around the world."
