Adele dislikes being famous, and she made no attempt to hide it during her “Weekends with Adele” residency concert in Las Vegas Saturday night. The 16-time Grammy winner addressed the viral NBA meme of her looking miserable, admitting that she purposely presented herself in that manner. She explained in a fan-posted TikTok video that while sitting courtside at a basketball game, she was fine until the camera crew insisted on filming her against her wishes, even after she asked them not to. According to the singer, she was looking for Michael Jordan and had not wanted to be filmed as she had recently canceled her Las Vegas residency. However, the crew continued filming her, leading her to feel annoyed and sullen.

Adele also took the opportunity to dispel rumors about her lips, which appeared bigger than usual. She clarified that she was purposely pouting, not due to filler injections from her weight loss transformation. She emphasized that she has naturally full lips and didn’t need any fillers. She further explained that her sulking and annoyance at being filmed contributed to her looking like a different person, prompting speculation about her lips.

During her Las Vegas residency, Adele has been candid about her personal life, opinions, and experiences. She has extended her residency twice since it began in November 2022. In one instance, she defended Taylor Swift’s presence at Kansas City Chiefs games and called out people who complained about it, infusing her performances with her characteristic blunt honesty. She also expressed her support for the Chiefs due to Swift’s relationship with the team. Adele has been forthcoming about her desire to expand her family, revealing that she has a list of baby names ready and expressing her readiness to become a mom again. This is in addition to her previous admission of being diagnosed with jock itch from sweating in spanx while performing.

As “Weekends with Adele” has performances scheduled through June of this year, fans can expect more unfiltered insights and memorable moments from the superstar. Her residency has been a platform for her to share her thoughts, engage with her audience, and set the records straight on various controversies surrounding her public appearances. In the midst of it all, Adele continues to captivate audiences with her humor, vulnerability, and unquestionable talent, cementing her status as one of the most authentic and relatable figures in the music industry.
