Celine Dion, Adele share tearful embrace at Las Vegas concert
While performing ‘When We Were Young’ at her Las Vegas residency concert on Saturday, British pop sensation Adele broke into tears when she stumbled upon Canadian superstar Céline Dion in her audience. The two shared a tearful embrace before Adele continued. The venue, known as the Coliseum Theater in Caesars Palace, was built in 2003 for Dion’s own debut residency – Oct 28, 2024

It was a meeting of two divas on Saturday night during Adele’s concert at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

While singing her song Easy on Me, Adele appeared to scan the audience and spotted Canadian chanteuse Céline Dion among the audience members, according to a TikTok recording at the show.

Adele approached her for a hug, and as the two embraced, the tears started to fall.

As the pair separated, Dion dabbed at her own tears and wiped away Adele’s from her face.

“One of my favourite people of all time,” proclaimed Adele as she returned to the stage, asking the audience to help her finish the song as she composed herself. Dion stood up and took a bow to thunderous applause from overjoyed fans.

In another clip from the evening, Adele acknowledged she was standing on the stage that was built for Dion more than two decades ago when she first launched her own Las Vegas residency, A New Day.

“It’s only ever been about this room,” Adele said. “This is just a full circle moment to me so it’s amazing.”
