Frankie Valli Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award at 2025 Grammys: ‘It Finally Happened!’

Frankie Valli’s presence at the 2025 Grammy Awards has helped calm concerned fans about the 90-year-old legend’s recent “Rag Doll” appearance!

The Four Seasons frontman was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the ceremony held in Los Angeles. Not only did the singer seem thrilled, he appeared to be in the best of health.

“I know there has been a lot of stuff on the internet about me lately so I wanted to clear the air,” says Frankie, whose long hits — with the Four Seasons or solo — include “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Grease,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You,” “Sherry” and “Walk Like a Man.”

Despite all his hits and nominations, Frankie had never won a Grammy before the lifetime honor.

“I’m really feeling terrific about all of this,” he says. “I waited a long time. But it finally did happen. And I mean, I went for about seven or eight years in a row. They said, ‘You’re getting it this year, you’re getting it this year.’ ”

And he’s not retiring yet: “For the future, I’m always working on something,” Frankie teases. “I am working on something right now. It’s not ready to talk about.”
