Adele stopped her Las Vegas concert last weekend to sing Happy Birthday to a fan in the audience.
The superstar, 35, had seen a video online of the 12-year-old’s father surprising her with tickets to the show at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
In an adorable video shared to social media on Friday, a flight attendant is heard announcing that a passenger on board, Natalie, would not be going on a business trip with her father but would instead be attending Adele’s show for her birthday.
After watching the video online, Adele paused her concert and asked the audience to wish Natalie a happy twelfth birthday.
“My friend sent me a video of a dad, and I can’t remember his name, but a dad posted a video on Twitter today of his little girl, Natalie. She’s here tonight!’ the singer shouted as he stood on stage.

Adele continued, “During a United Airlines fight, the Tannoy flight attendant announced that she wasn’t going to Vegas with her dad today for his work trip, but to actually see me at a concert.
“If they’re here, can the father please say ‘wooo’?” Turn on the lights! Oh, there they are!’
Adele then asked the security team to arrange a program for her to sign for Natalie.
She added, “Happy birthday my darling and dad, you are the best dad in the world!”
She continued her concert and sang ‘Someone Like You’ before asking the audience to join her in singing Happy Birthday To You to Natalie.

Earlier this week, fans were thrilled when the global superstar announced the first Adele dates in Munich, her first shows in mainland Europe since 2016.
As mentioned before, Adele will perform in an open-air environment created exclusively for the special shows.
The custom-built arena will feature a combination of seating and standing seating with a capacity of 80,000 people per night.
Announcing the news on Instagram, Adele told her fans on Wednesday: ‘So a few months ago I got a call about a summer run of shows. I’ve been extremely happy with my shows in London’s Hyde Park and my residency in Vegas, so I had no other plans.”
‘However, I was too curious not to pursue this idea: a one-off, tailor-made pop-up stadium, designed around the show I want to give? Ohh!? Virtually a blow in the middle of Europe? In Munich?’
‘That’s a bit random, but fantastic nonetheless! Immediately after the euro? Come on England! With the Olympic Games next door? Go ahead Simone! And some of my favorite artists playing shows too? Why yes!!’
‘I haven’t played in Europe since 2016! I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my summer and end this beautiful phase of my life and career with shows closer to home during such an exciting summer. Guten Tag babes x.’
She later uploaded a poster with the additional dates, simply adding, “For more information and to register for tickets, visit Adele.com.”
Fans went crazy at the announcement, with many commenting on Instagram that they were planning European road trips to see their idol.
Adele is currently performing the final leg of her critically acclaimed Weekends With Adele residency in Las Vegas, which runs until mid-June.
