Nobody had Celine Dion and Jack Black as Metallica concert buddies on their bingo card — yet there they were in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Video from the show captured the pair having the time of their lives as the band tore into "Enter Sandman." The singer best known for sweeping love ballads turns out to have a serious soft spot for heavy music.

Celine whipped out some air guitar during the song and threw in a little headbanging of her own. Jack was just as into it — he leaned back while lip-syncing along with the band.

Hands in the air

When the guitar solo kicked in the two stood shoulder to shoulder clapping above their heads. Jack capped off the moment by dancing around and belting out the words one more time.

The band launched its "Life Burns Faster" run of shows at the Sphere back on October 1. James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo and Lars Ulrich are scheduled to play 24 dates at the Vegas venue running through March 13, 2027.

This was not Celine's first trip to see them either. She also caught the band only a few days earlier — and was filmed going wild on air guitar that night as well.
