Adele leaves a small child “in bits” following a touching interaction at her Las Vegas concert.
Adele warmed fans’ hearts at her Las Vegas event with an endearing interaction with a young fan.
The Hello hitmaker, 36, is nearing the end of her Las Vegas residency, which began in 2022 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace and will conclude in November.
During one of the spectacular performances, the singer startled an audience member by singing the legendary words of When We Were Young to him.
One young Adele fan had a once-in-a-lifetime interaction with the icon
She moved across the audience while singing the classic ballad, looking stunning in a flowing black dress and gold belt.
As she got to the climactic final verses, she sang to an unsuspecting young boy in the audience who looked simply star-struck by the interaction.
She danced and smiled with the youngster, before patting him as she belted out the song’s moving chorus.

The singer joined a member of the audience for the grand finale of a hit song.
Adele patted his shoulder before continuing her journey to the stage – as well as her entourage as the young boy looked almost moved to tears.
Fans applauded the Skyfall singer for giving the young fan a ‘core memory’ and for the sweet behaviour of her security team.
A separate video on social media saw her seemingly talking about the interaction at a subsequent show.
‘I think he must have been about 10 or 11 and I walked through the crowd later and when I was coming down the aisle I spotted him,’ she recalled.
‘He was a little bit of a cowboy he was wearing this hat and he was so teary – he was already crying – so I went up to him and sang the big note of When We Were Young.
Adele reflected on the encounter at a different show.
‘He was in bits. He was with his mum. I kept my eye on him for the rest of the show and I really hope one day my son wants to go to a show with me.’
She joked that she does take her son, Angelo, to shows, as ‘he knows she can get tickets.’
‘It was very sweet last night,’ she continued. ‘There’s something so wholesome about mothers and their children.’
It comes as she savagely took down an audience member at a Las Vegas show who heckled her with a homophobic message.
Adele was having none of it, saying, “Did you come to my f***ing show and just say that Pride sucks?” Are you f**king stupid?’
‘Don’t be so f***ing foolish,’ she exclaimed. ‘If you have nothing pleasant to say, shut up, okay?’
Adele then asked supporters if they had ‘dragged’ a husband to the show, assuring them that she ‘won’t be insulted.
‘Perhaps it’s you, sir,’ she remarked to the heckler.
