Yes, even celebrities have their favorite celebrities.
Adele gave her favorite celebrity, Meryl Streep, a hug on Friday, November 1, during her residency show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
In a video posted via X , the “Hello” singer was performing at her Weekends with Adele show at Caesars Palace, when she spotted the iconic actress in the audience. Adele, coincidentally, was dressed as Streep’s character, Madeline Ashton, from the 1992 film Death Becomes Her.
This isn’t the first time a major celebrity has shown up at the singer’s long standing residency. Superstar Celine Dion showed up at her show on Saturday, October 26, bringing Adele to tears.
Dion, 56, and Adele shared a hug as the crowd cheered. Dion held Adele’s face in her hands, and then gave her a kiss on the hand in the emotional moment. The “My Heart Will Go On” singer attended the show with her two sons, Nelson and Eddy, both 14 years old.
In footage from the show shared via X, Adele told the crowd, “Give it up for Ms. Celine Dion!” as she returned to the stage.
Dion posted about her experience via Instagram afterward, complimenting Adele on her performance.
“Adele, we are so grateful to you for welcoming me and my family back to the Colosseum for your amazing show!” Dion wrote in her November 1 post. “Your performance was spectacular, your production was so beautiful. We loved seeing you and hearing you sing…it was such an emotional night for us all.”
The Colosseum, where Adele has her residency, was coincidentally built for Dion’s own Las Vegas residency back in 2003.
Adele recently made headlines after sharing an update on her recovery after suffering an ear infection. The Grammy winner spoke about the painful experience during her October 25 concert.
“I actually have an ear infection, which is actually pretty grim. I’ve never had an ear infection before,” she said, per a fan’s video on social media. “It is the most painful thing that ever, ever happened to me in my life. It was worse than childbirth.”
She explained that while on tour in Munich over the summer, she got a “rare water bacteria.”
“[It] is hard to treat, so I was on the wrong antibiotics for a few days,” said the singer. “They managed to give me one that started to work. I’m no longer in pain, which is great, [but] I’m a bit deaf in my left ear.”
