Adele broke down in tears as she shared an emotional hug with Celine Dion during her Las Vegas residency show.

The 36-year-old British hitmaker became emotional after spotting the 56-year-old Canadian singer in the crowd at the Colosseum Theater at Caesars Palace, which was built for Celine's 2003 debut. In a video that has gone viral on social media, Adele can be seen bursting into tears after seeing Celine.

The Easy on Me star then walks towards Celine to greet her over a barrier and the pair, both looking emotional, hug as the audience cheers them on and some people scream "oh my God". Celine can then be seen kissing Adele's hand before sitting down and dabbing at her teary eyes with a tissue.

Adele, dressed in an all-black outfit, told her fans: "Give it up for Miss Celine Dion." The music legend then stood up as fans cheered and shouted to share their excitement. Speaking to BBC News, Nasser, who was in the audience and filmed the moment on his phone, said: "This truly felt like she was proudly handing the keys to Adele. And when Adele gave her that hug, everyone felt what they felt."

Fans also shared their excitement on social media as one wrote: "Tonight, the Queens met at the Palace." Another added: "This is how you appreciate a legend!" Someone else who was at the show said: "Cannot believe I was in the same room as Adele and Celine Dion are you KIDDING???!"

One more said: "The most memorable moment." A fan said: "This is incredible! You can tell by their emotions how much they love the respect each other. How amazing to have Celine there watching Adele in the venue that was built for her residency."

It comes as Adele revealed she has been left "partially deaf" after coming into contact with a "rare water bacteria" that is "very hard to treat". She said she experienced pain "worse than childbirth" during her residency in Munich in August. The mum-of-one opened up on her health battle while on stage at Caesars Palace as she said: "I have an ear infection, which is pretty grim.

"I've never had one before. It's the most painful thing that's ever, ever happened to me. It was worse than childbirth. It's a rare water bacteria. It's very hard to treat. I was on the wrong antibiotics for a few days and they managed to give me one that started to work."

As reported by The Sun, Adele added: "I wanted to chop my ear off a few times. I'm no longer in pain, which is great but I'm a bit deaf in my left ear."
