Michael Bublé took to Spark Arena's stage last night in Auckland and he shone the spotlight on some local talent.

He'd only sung a couple of songs before he pulled two Kiwi buskers he’d met that morning up to the stage for a surprise performance.

“I was at the fish market and I’m with the kids and the family and we’re sitting there watching them and all of a sudden I hear music and these two people, this woman and this man and he’s playing the piano.

“Long story short I got my phone and I’m like, this is perfect. It’s a perfect TikTok.”

Bublé told the crowd that after getting to know the pair - Vanessa and Johnny - and discovering they already had tickets to the show, he asked if he could get them more tickets so they could sing with him.

The trio performed a segment of Up Where We Belong, and Bublé got his TikTok with the whole audience.

His whole show was spectacular, and filled with many moments of Bublé showing love to his kiwi fans.

Early on he spotted a sign in the audience, "It's a beautiful day... for my first concert" belonging to a young girl, which he signed for her.
