Fans were very moved by the award show's dedication to the star.

"Ohh they just honored Lisa Marie at the Grammys, I'm tearing up," wrote one person on Twitter.

"For Lisa Marie Presley to finally be credited simply as a singer/songwriter instead of by her relatives or marriages, is everything she’s deserved her whole life. Thank you" penned another.

Lisa's image was shown as Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt and Mick Fleetwood performed 'Songbird' in honor of Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie, who died in November 2022.
