Adele makes a rare appearance to watch Justin Bieber’s Coachella set with her son Angelo, 13
Adele made a rare public appearance this weekend to watch Justin Bieber’s Coachella set with her son Angelo.
The 37-year-old singer cut a simple figure as she strolled around the festival in a casual black suit.
She added ballet flats to her look and accessorized with statement gold earrings as she headed out to see Justin on the main stage on Saturday night.
Adele shares 13-year-old Angelo with ex-husband Simon Konecki, whom she divorced in 2021.
The star was not accompanied by her sports manager partner Rich Paul, 45, in Palm Springs for the festival.
Adele was last photographed attending multiple NBA games with her partner Rich in Los Angeles last year.

They have been romantically linked since they went public with their relationship at an NBA game in July 2021.
In August 2024, Adele confirmed that she and Paul were engaged during her concert in Munich, Germany at the time.
In fan-shot footage, one of Adele’s fans was holding a sign that read: ‘Will you marry me?’
After noticing the offer, Adele politely declined, saying: ‘I can’t marry you because I’m already getting married, so I can’t but I appreciate it. Thank you!’
Justin Bieber’s highly anticipated comeback at Coachella did not sit well with many of his fans as he performed in his hooded set and streamed songs from his laptop.
Festival-goers were so excited to see the headliner’s performance that fans who couldn’t wait to see her return to the stage dubbed the entire event ‘Bieberchella’.
But instead of returning with a bang, the star disappointed some of her fans, who branded the performance ‘lazy’; controversy centered on its unconventional staging and focus on new music.
On the contrary, Day 1’s leading lady, Sabrina Carpenter, gave a polished performance with several outfit changes and impressive staging.
Ahead of the event, many people had shared their desperation to hear Bieber play some of his old hits, but they had only been heard as snippets of Bieber singing along to YouTube clips.
The 32-year-old pop artist made four surprise guest appearances at the festival, supporting Ariana Grande, Chance the Rapper, Daniel Caesar and Tems.

But he made his debut at the top of the bill, delivering a late-night set on Day 2 of this year’s festival for which he was said to have been paid $10 million.
‘I can’t imagine paying thousands of dollars to watch Justin Bieber make a terrible sound and walk around in a hoodie and glasses. “This is an insult to their fans,” one fan said.
Others wrote: ‘I hate crappy band and low rent hip hop’ and ‘Justin Bieber got paid 10 million just to wander around this fucking stage?’
“This is what happens when you sell your catalog and all you have left is your last album that no one knows about,” another viewer theorized.
Another saw a ‘night and day difference’ between her low-key set and the high-energy extravaganza Sabrina Carpenter delivered the night before.
One fan kindly said: ‘Sorry biebs but he doesn’t give a fuck’, while another reacted more harshly: ‘Are you headlining Coachella right there with just a microphone and your macbook?’
Some even branded his show the ‘worst in the history of the festival’, while others questioned why he was being paid such an eye-watering amount of money and called for a production on par with previous headliners.
