Joni Mitchell left A-listers like Jennifer Lopez and Alicia Keys stunned in their seats over Grammy weekend.
The 81-year-old music icon performed her 1966 song "Both Sides Now" at Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammy party - and we're told Lopez and Keys were in awe sitting front row.
"When Joni took the stage, seated in a glorious white throne, the tables at the front fell silent for the opening bars of 'Both Sides Now.' Her performance was the hit of the night," a spy told Page Six.
Joni Mitchell, 80, makes Grammys debut with rare performance at 2024 show Gayle King, Jack Antonoff and Keys' producer husband, Swizz Beatz, were also perched up front.
Meanwhile, comedian Bill Maher "sang along to every single word - word for word" when Mitchell took the stage, according to our source.
We're told "everyone was awestruck by Joni" at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, even before the gala started.
Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, Benson Boone and Post Malone were a few of the newer artists who showed the music legend respect.
Mitchell has been attending Davis' pre-Grammy bashes for decades.
The "Big Yellow Taxi" singer, who is also an avid painter, gifted her longtime friend Davis with an original piece depicting a scene from one of his previous shows back in the day.
