Wearing a silver jacket reminiscent of what Streep, 75, wore as Ashton in the comedy/fantasy film, as well as a blonde wig and a large silver necklace, Adele sang her song “When We Were Young” but stopped when she saw a star, standing in the audience in front of her.
“Hi,” Adele said cheerfully as she bowed to the Oscar-winning actress, who then returned the favor by bowing to the performer.
The two then shared a sweet embrace, embracing each other as Adele continued to sing the tune from her 2015 album. 25. “I love you,” she also told Streep between lyrics.
