Adele bursts into tears as she spots Celine Dion in audience

Pop star Adele burst into tears when she spotted superstar singer Celine Dion in the audience during her show in Las Vegas over the weekend (26-27.10.24).

The singer returned to the stage at Colosseum at Caesars Palace to continue her 'Weekends With Adele' residency and she was overwhelmed when she realised the superstar singer was in the crowd and a video posted on X - formerly known as Twitter - shows Adele walking over to Celine and crying as she gave her a hug.

The pair exchanged words and held hands before Adele carried on with the show and Celine was seen wiping her eyes with a tissue. Adele then told the audience: "Give it up for Ms Celine Dion."

Celine then stood up to a huge applause and she waved to fans and blew kisses as they cheered.

The appearance at Adele's show came six years after the British singer went to see Celine perform in the same venue back in 2018 during her 'Celine' residency which ran from 2011 until 2019.

After meeting at the show, Adele shared her delight in a post on Instagram, which read "Queen Celine! What a show, an absolute highlight of my life, thank you so much for the attention to your crowd and insane humour. Happy New Year lady x."

Celine also mentioned the meeting in a post on her own page, writing: "Wasn’t able to do all my shows, but was thrilled that Adele came to one of them … I love her so much!!"

Adele previously revealed one of her most treasured possessions is a piece of gum chewed by Celine which she had framed.

During a video interview for Vogue, Adele explained: "It's pretty amazing. James Corden - who's a friend of mine but also does Carpool Karaoke, which I did - did one with her. He knew how much of a fan I was of her and he made her spit her gum into a piece of paper and she framed it for me."
