As you may or may not have noticed, this weekend saw Coachella officially change its name to "Beychella". Saturday brought with it the most monumental headline performance in history, with Beyonce Knowles taking to the stage and embarking on a two-hour set which elevated her to becoming arguably the greatest performer the world has ever seen.
While this may sound like an overstatement, if you've watched the performance, you will find it hard to disagree.
There are numerous reasons that Bey's set was so empowering. Whether it's the fact that she became the first black woman to headline the California-based festival, the political themes running throughout the performance, or simply the fact that she got Destiny's Child back together.
It's been a year in the making for Queen B, who was meant to perform at last year's festival but was too far along with her twin pregnancy to do so. Speaking about her pride at finally getting to perform at Coachella, Beyonce said:
"I’m so happy, that I am here," she told the crowd as she wrapped up.
"I was supposed to perform at Coachella before, but, I got pregnant – thank god."
The "Drunk In Love" singer went on to say that the time off gave her space to design this year’s performance: "So I had time to dream and dream and dream with two beautiful souls in my belly and this is everything and more."
Understandably, Twitter went into meltdown at the performance, with the majority of people gushing praise on the 36-year-old.
But, on top of us mere mortals dishing out compliments to Bey, it seems like a certain singer was also having the time of her life watching the performance at home.
Everyone's favourite Londoner, Adele, uploaded a series of Boomerangs onto her Instagram profile, in which she can be seen twerking, performing some serious hairography and, bizarrely, dancing with a trumpet. Take a look below.
It's not the first time Adele has been public with her love of Beyonce. Back in 2017, the North-Londoner picked up the Grammy for Best Record and spent the majority of her speech exclaiming her love for Beyonce.
"But I can’t possibly accept this award," a teary Adele said.
"I’m very humbled and I’m very grateful and gracious. But my artist of my life is Beyoncé. And this album to me, the 'Lemonade' album, is just so monumental."
"Beyoncé, it’s so monumental. And so well thought out, and so beautiful and soul-baring and we all got to see another side to you that you don’t always let us see. And we appreciate that. And all us artists here adore you. You are our light.
"And the way that you make me and my friends feel, the way you make my black friends feel, is empowering. And you make them stand up for themselves.
"And I love you. I always have and I always will."
If you haven't watched the Coachella performance, make sure you do - it's incredible. And, in terms of Adele's antics, it's to know that, among all the glitz and glam, celebrities are still human.
