Was Adele right to defend fan who was blocking the rows behind him? New video shows how TikTok user was standing up to film HIMSELF singing along

Adele sensationally stopped her Las Vegas concert on Saturday after she spotted a security guard accosting one of her fans – winning her social media acclaim.

But now a new TikTok video from the fan has showed the moments leading up to the incident, showing them standing up and singing along to the star’s hits while blocking the view of the rows behind him.

The video, shot by TikTok user @juanp_lastra, shows him standing up and animatedly singing along while Adele, 35, belts out I Drink Wine –  while holding a selfie stick to record his own performance alongside Adele’s.

The fan is then approached by another guest sat in the rows behind who politely tells him he is blocking the view – after which he sits down and continues singing.

Adele then instructs her fans to ‘stand up’ as she begins hit Water Under The Bridge – with the fan screaming as he gets to his feet.

In footage of the incident, Adele could be heard saying to the unidentified security security guard, ‘What is going on there with that young fan who’s been bothered so much since I came on for standing up? What’s going on with him? Yes, you, with your hand up, yes you!’ 

The 16-time Grammy winner continued to shout at the security guard to ‘leave the fan alone.’

‘Why are you all bothering him? Can you leave [the fan] alone, please? They won’t bother you anymore, darling. You enjoy the show. Leave him alone,’ Adele said.

This won her loud cheers from the crowd, with security telling the fan: ‘You can stand up, you don’t have to sit down’ and walking off.

‘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.’
