Las Vegas, NV, Oct 28, (V7N) — A magical moment took center stage Saturday night at Caesars Palace during Adele's residency show at The Colosseum, where she shared an emotional encounter with Celine Dion.
As Adele performed her poignant ballad “When We Were Young,” she noticed Dion seated in a box near the soundboard. The sight led to a heartfelt reunion, beautifully captured in a video shared by fans on social media. Overcome with emotion, the two superstars embraced, held hands, and exchanged words. In a touching gesture, Dion cradled Adele’s face, kissed her hand, and leaned in for a final intimate conversation.
“Give it up for Miss Celine Dion!” a tearful Adele, 36, announced to the audience as she made her way back to the stage. The crowd erupted in applause and cheers, giving Dion a standing ovation. Dion, visibly moved, waved to the audience before retreating to her seat, dabbing her eyes with a tissue while comforted by her 14-year-old twin sons, Nelson and Eddy Angélil.
Both artists were dressed to impress for the occasion. Adele wore a stunning black gown with a portrait neckline, embellished with shimmering black baubles, her hair styled long and loose. Dion, equally glamorous, donned a slinky black gown featuring an asymmetrical cut at the shoulder and a dramatic choker, her hair pulled back in a sleek bun.
Fans took to social media to express their awe and joy over the heartfelt reunion. Comments included, “This show was absolutely insane,” from @plumeria_89 on Instagram, and “Wow, Celine is weeping. I love seeing gratitude on celebrities. What a moment,” from @heypierreking on X.
Celine Dion has been facing significant health challenges, coping with stiff person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that causes debilitating muscle spasms, preventing her from performing for much of the past year. Her appearance at Adele's show marked a rare public outing since her health struggles began, although she did perform at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics earlier this year.
Adele’s residency, “Weekends With Adele,” is set to conclude on November 23. Afterward, she has announced plans to take an “incredibly long hiatus.” At a recent concert in Munich, she expressed her desire to focus on her personal life, stating, “I want to live the life that I've been building and I will miss you terribly.”
This emotional reunion not only highlighted the deep bond between two of music's most powerful voices but also served as a reminder of the resilience and connection that art can foster, even amidst personal struggles.
