Social media is praising British songstress Adele after she stook up for a fan being ‘harassed’ by security at a recent show in Las Vegas.
Having extended her residency at the legendary Caesars Palace in Las Vegas until November, the multi-award-winning artist has been hosting sellout crowds for nearly a year now and when one young fan was continuously approached by staff at the venue, the 35-year-old decided to step in.
As shared in the video posted online, TikTok user @juanp_lastra was having “the best night of [his] life” whilst singing along to the ‘Weekends with Adele’ setlist but was seemingly asked to sit down by another member of the audience for blocking their view.
Things then escalated when multiple members of staff, accompanied by security, approached him and asked him to calm down and retake his seat. It was at this point that Adele herself decided to stop mid-show whilst performing ‘Water Under the Bridge’ and ask what was going on.
@juanp_lastra Adele thank you so much for this breathtaking night and for standing up for me, so that I could live your concert as it should be. I’m also sorry that I didnt respond back to anyrhing you asked me. you started talking to me and I literally stopped breathing. I had been planning to come to this concert for over a year and I finally had the opportunity to come see most beautiful glorious woman this earth has gotten. I still can not wrap my head around the fact that I was in the same room as ADELE, sang every song with her, and she even stopped the show to defend me. I did not expected everyone in my section to be mad at me for having the time of my life and wanting to stand up and sing with her but I honestly did not care at all about what anyone was saying to me I just was in awe with the master piece I was watching with my own eyes. I did not have time for them haters. @Adele Access #adele#weekendswithadele#lasvegas#ceasarspalace🇵🇷♬ original sound – juanp_lastra
As you can see in the now viral clip, Adele asks, “Sorry, what is going on with that young fan down there? He’s been bothered so much since I came on for standing up, what’s going on with him?”

With the Caesars staff now hesistating but still trying to converse with him, she decides to stop the whole thing situation in its tracks and stand up for the fan: “Why are you all bothering him? Can you leave him alone please?”, she asks before adding, “You can stand up now, don’t worry darling, they won’t bother you again. You enjoy the show.”
There’s been an outpouring of support following the video, with plenty of people leaving comments like, “Love that Adele stood up for you living your best life!!! Dance any chance you can get!!” and “Why do people come to concerts to sit and be boring!?!? I will never understand!! Sing your heart out king!”

While some have argued that they understand why some people complained, remarking, “I will say the selfie stick the entire time would’ve driven me crazy”, pretty much everyone was in agreeance that there is absolutely no problem with singing your heart out at a gig. Preach.
Adele stopped her performance of “Water Under The Bridge” to defend a fan from a security guard at her Vegas residency.
Writing in the caption of the video, Juan said: “Adele thank you so much for this breathtaking night and for standing up for me, so that I could live your concert as it should be. I’m also sorry that I didnt respond back to anything you asked me. you started talking to me and I literally stopped breathing.”
As he goes on to explain, “I had been planning to come to this concert for over a year and I finally had the opportunity to come see most beautiful glorious woman this earth has gotten. I still can not wrap my head around the fact that I was in the same room as ADELE, sang every song with her, and she even stopped the show to defend me.

I did not have time for them haters.”

Adele’s management even responded to the video directly, simply writing: “Thank you for coming and showing us all how to live our absolute best lives!”

You can line dance to Lily Allen’s West End Girl in full right here in Manchester
Thomas Melia
After a fun way to kickstart the New Year? Some people might suggest hobbies like ‘Tennis’, but how about a line dancing class playing Lily Allen’s new album in its entirety – we know which we’d rather do.
Grab your nearest ‘Nonmonogamummy’ or take ‘Madeline’, if you know one, because there’s a line dance class where you get to line dance to Lily Allen’s West End Girl in full right here in Manchester.
Hosted by Red Rodeo Club, a queer line dancing group based in Manchester, who have hosted monthly artist-inspired events city wide including Chappell Roan, Beyoncé, Charli XCX and more.
This troupe even managed to line dance all the way to one of Manchester’s most reputable LGBTQIA+ nights of the year, performing on the Archive stage at Homobloc just last month.
Now, Red Rodeo is returning with another special night that is sure to interest all the West Endand North West girls across Manchester, as it prepares a Lily Allen line dance spectacular later this month.
If you’re ‘Ruminating’ about attending this event, there’s absolutely no pressure or dance experience needed as the group prides itself on providing ‘classic boot-scootin tutorials with a party vibe’.
You’ll definitely be in good company regardless of your dance partners, as hosting the event is Violet Blonde, known for their extraordinary outfits and love of Country icon Dolly Parton.
We’re already onto a winner…
Your dance instructor for the night is the remarkable Shanika Sunrise, a rapper and producer, who boasts a seriously impressive roster of acts they’ve opened for, including Chappell Roan, Cupcakke and Moonchild Sanelly.
Opportunities like this aren’t always feasible for everyone, which is something this line dance group is aware of as they’re offering a ‘Red Rodeo Club Low Income Ticket’, suited for students, unwaged and disabled attendees.
Red Rodeo Club is bringing the ‘Lily Allen edition’ line dance class to Fairfield Social Club in Manchester on Thursday, 29 January 2026, from 7-10:30pm.
If you’re interested in grapevine stepping or electric shuffling your way to the Lily Allen West End Girl line dance event in Manchester, you can find tickets HERE.
The smash-hit daytime rave where you can still be in bed early is returning to Manchester
Clementine Hall
That’s right: Day Fever, the daytime rave designed to still get you tucked in at a reasonable hour, is coming back to Manchester city centre this year.
Following their biggest raft of shows across the UK and Ireland in 2025, the smash-hit night out that is very much aimed at those of us 30 and over – but fellow sleepy heads are obviously more than welcome – Day Fever are targeting big things in 2026.
Launched in early 2024 by actress Vicky McClure and Reverend & The Makers frontman, Jon McClure, Day Fever has become a cultural sensation.
From its debut in Sheffield to a tour that sees thousands of ravers hitting the dance floor each month, the message is clear: people want to dance and let loose, but still be in bed before 9pm – and let’s be honest, who can blame them?

Running from 3-8pm, Day Fever provides a proper night out that doesn’t completely write you off for the entire weekend.
“It started as a WhatsApp idea”, says Jon McClure. “Jonny just said, ‘A daytime disco, how good would that be?’ We’re all a bit nuts, so we just said, ‘Come on then!’”
“It feels like a massive house party at your nan’s,” laughs Vicky. “No drama, no egos, just people acting daft, getting dressed up, and having the best time.”
From here in 0161 and our mates over in Leeds, to Newcastle, Glasgow and many more, each Day Fever event has its own unique flavour.
There’ll be local DJs who know their crowds keep the energy high with a nostalgic mix of Northern Soul, disco, indie, and 90s classics. “Manchester goes mad for Oasis,” says Jon, “and if Vicky’s there, we have to play Whitney, it’s non-negotiable!”
For starters, just look at the turnout they got over Christmas:
