Adele and Celine Dion made their fans feel their love as they shed tears and embraced during a moving reunion over the weekend.
“My Heart Will Go On” diva Dion on Saturday attended the final leg of Adele’s viral Las Vegas residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Though the stage belonged to the “Hello” hitmaker, Dion got her own share of the spotlight and audience love.
Adele, walking through the audience as she performed “While We Were Young,” made her way to Dion and her family, according to videos shared on TikTok. She reached over the railing to embrace the French Canadian singer and seemingly shed tears while doing so. Video also shows Dion holding Adele’s face in her hands, and holding and kissing Adele’s hand. Dion, accompanied and comforted by her sons, seems to wipe away tears after Adele walks away.
“Give it up to Miss Celine Dion,” Adele says later in the clip, spurring cheers and standing ovations from the audience.
Dion also gets on her feet, waving and blowing kisses.
Elsewhere in the clip Adele calls Dion, who presented her the song of the year Grammy in 2017, “one of my favorite people of all time.”

Dion’s most recent public appearance went viral nearly two years after she revealed in December 2022 she had been diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that has mostly hindered her live music career. Since her diagnosis, the 56-year-old singer has put performances on hold and explained that the incurable disorder has made it feel like “somebody’s strangling you” when she attempts to sing.
