Adam Lambert left Cher in tears while honoring the legend at the Kennedy Center Honors with a cover of the star’s 1998 hit “Believe.” 

The American Idol alum’s version was slower and more like a ballad than the original, which quickly became a dance club anthem in the ‘90s.

At the end of his performance, cameras panned to the music icon herself, who could be seen rubbing tears from her eyes. Adam later joined Cyndi Lauper to sing “I’ve Got You Babe,” the duet that Cher performed with Sonny Bono. 

This is legendary!
