Adele Defends Fan During Las Vegas Show
Adele demonstrated her deep connection with her fans when she paused her performance to defend a fan being harassed by security. During her show at Las Vegas’ Caesars Palace, fan Juan Pablo Lastra stood up and sang along, which drew repeated admonitions from security to sit down.
Frustrated by the security’s overzealous actions, Adele interrupted her song “I Drink Wine” to address the situation. She questioned from the stage, “What is going on with that young fan who’s been bothered so much since I came on for standing up? Why are you all bothering him?” She then instructed the security to leave him alone, adding, “They won’t bother you anymore, darling. You enjoy the show.”
Juan, who was recording the event with a 360-degree camera, captured the moment. His footage quickly went viral, gaining international attention. The video, posted on his TikTok account, has amassed over a million views across various uploads. After Adele’s intervention, the security guard swiftly retreated, and a senior security staff member told Juan he was “fine” and didn’t need to sit down.
The audience showed their support for Juan, cheering after Adele’s defense. This incident took place during her “Weekends With Adele” residency at Caesars Palace, highlighting Adele’s attentiveness to her fans.
