This touching encounter marked another connection between the two at the storied venue. In 2018, Adele attended one of Dion’s shows during her second residency at the Colosseum and later shared her admiration in an Instagram post. “Queen Celine! What a show, an absolute highlight of my life,” Adele wrote, commending Dion’s attention to the crowd and humor, adding, “Happy New Year lady x.”
Dion, who was recovering from illness at the time, also expressed gratitude for Adele’s support, stating on social media, “I had a pretty rough time… but was thrilled that Adele came to one of [my shows]. I love her so much!”
