Joni Mitchell makes rare public appearance at Clive Davis' pre-Grammys party

Joni Mitchell made a rare public appearance on Saturday night at Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammys gala at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

The 75-year-old singer, who has been a regular at the star-studded party throughout its 43 years, received a standing ovation during the event after Davis introduced her.

"I'm so touched that she comes to share the night with all of us," he said. "Please welcome the inimitable Joni Mitchell."

The wheelchair-bound singer flashed a smile as she got help to briefly stand up and face the crowd.

Mitchell's outing on Saturday night was just one of very few appearances that she had made in public since she suffered from a brain aneurysm in March 2015 and was found unconscious in her home in Los Angeles. In the four years since her health scare, she has appeared once at Davis' party in 2017 and, three months ago, she stepped out for an event held in her honor around her 75th birthday.
