Adele surprised Stormzy backstage at one of his gigs over the weekend.

The 23-year-old singer had his "best day ever" when the Hello hitmaker - who is referenced in his song Big for Your Boots - dropped by his dressing room at London's O2 Academy Brixton.

He stared a picture of them together and captioned the Instagram post: "Best Day Ever (sic)."

Following the release of his acclaimed debut album Gang Signs & Prayers, the Rolling In The Deep singer wished the grime artist good luck with the LP on social media.

Stormzy replied: "There aren't enough characters in a tweet for me to say what I wanna say #ArtistGoals (sic)"

And when Stormzy went to watch Adele, 28, perform at The O2 in London, she dedicated Make You Feel My Love to him saying on stage:

"I want to dedicate this song to a guy from South London aka Stormzy. I hope you have a great time."

The rapper has had great success over the past few months and has built up a lot of celebrity friends including Ed Sheeran who surprised fans by joining him on stage on Thursday night for a rendition of Shape of You.

The two artists recreated their BRIT Awards performance of the smash hit single, which features grime star Stormzy rapping with Ed, for the capacity crowd to huge cheers.
