Celine Dion Leaves Adele in Tears with an Emotional Moment During Her Vegas Show
Adele’s Las Vegas residency reached an emotional high point when she was joined in the audience by none other than Céline Dion, creating a heartwarming moment that left both iconic singers in tears. The moving encounter took place during Adele’s concert at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace on October 26.
As Adele, 36, performed her emotional ballad When We Were Young, she spotted Céline Dion, 56, in the audience. Clearly overwhelmed by the presence of her idol, Adele approached Dion mid-performance. In a fan-captured video posted on X (formerly Twitter), the two stars shared an emotional embrace that moved the entire crowd.
The video shows Adele becoming visibly tearful as she reaches Dion, who tenderly holds Adele’s face and kisses her hand. The touching exchange between the two legends left Dion wiping away her own tears, while her 14-year-old sons, Nelson and Eddy Angélil, offered their comfort. Adele, too, was seen wiping tears from her eyes as she made her way back to the stage, still visibly emotional from the unforgettable encounter.
This heartfelt moment was especially significant given Adele’s well-known admiration for Dion. Adele has long been a superfan, and in 2018 she attended one of Dion’s shows at the very same venue, later describing it as “an absolute highlight of my life.”
Adele’s admiration for Dion has been evident over the years. In a playful display of fandom, she once shared during a 2021 interview that her “proudest possession” is a framed piece of Dion’s gum, gifted to her by James Corden after Dion’s appearance on Carpool Karaoke.
The emotional exchange between Adele and Céline Dion not only highlighted the mutual respect and admiration between the two powerhouse vocalists but also created a once-in-a-lifetime moment for fans, reinforcing the deep connections that transcend generations in the world of music.
