Gloria Gaynor had Disney fans dancing at D23 with a performance of one of her most recognizable hits.
The Grammy-winning singer, 82, performed “I Will Survive” during a special Disney Experiences celebration at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, bringing her disco classic to an unexpected Disney setting.
Gaynor’s performance was part of a celebration surrounding Expedition Everest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The attraction’s legendary Yeti was at the center of the festivities, with Disney celebrating the character “coming back to life” inside the attraction.
Naturally, Gaynor’s 1978 hit provided the perfect soundtrack.
Disney shared a video of the performance, showing Gaynor delivering “I Will Survive” for fans gathered at D23. The performance gave attendees a chance to see the legendary singer take the stage while Disney highlighted some of its latest experiences and attractions.
The D23 appearance comes as Disney Experiences continues to showcase what’s ahead for fans at its theme parks and destinations. The company’s D23 programming has included announcements and presentations covering new attractions, entertainment and experiences coming to Disney destinations.
For Gaynor, the appearance was another chance to perform the song that became a defining moment of her career. “I Will Survive” has remained closely associated with the singer since its release and earned Gaynor the Grammy Award for Best Disco Recording in 1980.
The D23 performance also gave Disney fans a particularly fitting moment: as the Yeti makes his presence felt again at Expedition Everest, Gaynor was on hand to sing a song about surviving.
