Adele got teary-eyed after performing a gender reveal for a pregnant New York couple midway through one of her Las Vegas concerts.

While attending a show that's part of her "Weekends with Adele" residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, fans Chris and Shantelle Dare got the singer to be a part of their special moment, as seen in a video that Chris uploaded onto TikTok on Sunday.

The couple first caught Adele's attention while in the audience, with a banner that said "Adele will you do our gender reveal?"

They were subsequently invited to the front of the stage by the singer, where they handed her a sealed envelope for the announcement.

"No one's really allowed signs in here. I'm just obsessed that you got one in," Adele told the couple before the reveal, per the video.

The couple said that while Shantelle was already 18 weeks into her pregnancy, they held on to the sealed envelope for a few weeks so that they could bring it to the concert.

"I'm just honored that you're going to do this for us. We've known since 12 weeks, and we have been waiting for this moment," Shantelle said to Adele, per the video.

As the British singer sat down on the edge of the stage, she opened the envelope and announced to the crowd, "Shantelle and Chris are having a baby — boy!"

Cheers erupted from the entire venue as the couple embraced, and Adele — who has a son of her own — got visibly emotional.

"That was amazing. I'm so happy for you!" Adele said to the crowd as she sobbed. "That's so emotional, oh my God."

"If and when I get pregnant will you do my gender reveal?" the singer even jokingly asked the couple.

The TikTok clip has been viewed more than a million times since it was posted, and has garnered over 156,700 likes so far.

Chris and Shantelle Dare did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Insider outside of regular business hours.
