Adele's Lifelong Wish Finally Granted! Emotional Moment as She Meets the Rock at the 2023 Grammys, All Thanks To Trevor Noah
Adele’s long-standing aspiration to encounter Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was fulfilled in an extraordinary and unforeseen manner on Sunday at the LA Grammy Awards. The unexpected encounter occurred on national TV during the Grammys broadcast, with host Trevor Noah making the introduction during his opening remarks.
Noah brought attention to Adele, nominated seven times at the 2023 awards and sitting nearby her partner Rich Paul at the Crypto.com Arena. “This is one of the most peculiar things I’ve come across. The individual Adele has desired to meet but never has, is Dwayne Johnson,” said Noah, as Adele nodded in agreement. “You’ve never met him.”

“And I discovered that he’s a massive admirer of yours,” Noah continued. “I don’t have a person named Dwayne Johnson here, but I have someone referred to as The Rock.”
With that, the radiant 6’4″ celebrity The Rock emerged and walked towards the shocked Adele. “Adele, this is The Rock. The Rock, meet Adele,” said Noah. “First time.” They hugged, with Adele laughing in surprise and joy over the encounter. Adele disclosed in a Dec. 2021 NikkieTutorial that she would “truly shed tears” if she ever met the “incredible” Johnson.
“I was a massive wrestling fan when I was younger,” Adele stated. “He sent me flowers the other day because he and his spouse couldn’t attend my concert. Honestly, I almost fell out of my seat.” Later in the Grammys show, Johnson presented Adele with the award for best pop solo performance, referring to her as his “friend.” The Rock-Adele encounter received positive reactions and amusement on social media, with one Twitter user speculating about Paul’s reaction to their interaction.
“The meeting between Adele and The Rock is so charmingly unexpected,” one Twitter user commented. Another Twitter user wrote, “Adele is living my dream with The Rock.” CBS’s official Twitter account also added, “Okay, The Rock and Adele are the BFF goals we never knew we wanted.”
