The ‘hello’ singer expresses her heartfelt gratitude after a surprise visit from the legendary diva during her show.

In a touching display of admiration and respect, Adele has opened up about her emotional meeting with Celine Dion during a recent performance in Las Vegas. The encounter occurred on Saturday, 26 October, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, a venue that holds significant sentimental value for both artists. Originally built for Dion’s 2003 residency, the space has become a home for Adele, who has graced its stage for nearly two years.

While performing her heartfelt ballad “When We Were Young,” Adele spotted the legendary Canadian singer in the audience and was overcome with emotion, breaking into tears. This poignant moment encapsulated the deep respect and admiration Adele holds for Dion, a figure she has long looked up to in the music industry.

Taking to her official Instagram account, Adele shared a photograph of the touching encounter and reflected on its significance. She began her post by expressing, “I have been performing in Celine Dion’s room at the Colosseum for almost 2 years now. 4 weeks to go! It was the only venue I wanted to play in Vegas because it was built for her.”

In her heartfelt message, Adele revealed the personal ritual she has maintained throughout her residency: touching a picture of Celine Dion located next to the stage before every performance. “She came to the show this weekend and it was a surprise and it was a MOMENT!!” Adele exclaimed, directing her affection towards Dion with the words, “@celinedion I love you so very very much. Words will never sum up what you mean to me, or what you coming to my show means, let alone how it felt seeing you back in your palace with your beautiful family.”

The reunion marked a significant moment for Adele, who described it as “such a full circle moment.” She expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to perform in a venue that has been so closely associated with one of her greatest inspirations. “I have loved being there; it has been such an honour, and Saturday night will be something I remember forever and ever,” she said, highlighting the emotional weight of the encounter.

This heartfelt tribute from Adele not only showcases the deep bond and respect she has for Celine Dion but also reflects the legacy that Dion has created in Las Vegas and the music industry at large. As Adele prepares to wrap up her Las Vegas residency in just four weeks, this moment serves as a reminder of the connections that music can forge across generations.

Both artists celebrated for their powerful vocals and emotional performances, have carved their own unique paths in the music world. However, their shared experiences in the iconic venue of The Colosseum illustrate the impact of mentorship and admiration that exists within the industry.

With their legacies intertwined, Adele and Celine Dion continue to inspire countless fans and aspiring artists, proving that the music world is not just about individual success but also about honouring those who have paved the way.
