Adorning an elegant black dress, 36-year-old Adele dazzled her audience with a medley of her renowned songs. At a point during her performance beside the piano, she seized the moment to extend her support for the LGBTQ+ community.
However, a noticeable disgruntled voice from the crowd scorned, deridingly saying ‘pride sucks,’ which triggered an immediate sharp reaction from Adele.
A recording of the episode reveals her visibly annoyed, retorting: “Did you come to my f****** show and say that Pride sucks? Are you f****** stupid? Don’t be so f****** ridiculous. If you have nothing nice to say, shut up.”
Adele’s rebuttal was followed by: “All right?”
A committed LGBTQ+ ally, Adele’s actions have time and again proved her solidarity with the community.
Earlier, she commemorated Pride Month by featuring a dress with a rainbow flag trail along with thematic confetti at her performance venue.
In 2022, the artist gratuitously adopted a couple’s pride flag during a concert at London’s iconic Hyde Park to a crowd of 65,000.
Marking the 50th year of Pride In London at the BST Festival, she enthused the audience by draping herself with the emblematic flag.
In the aftermath of the 2016 Pulse nightclub tragedy, Adele dedicated an entire show to those affected, stressing her close affinity with the LGBTQ community.
Her iconic song ‘I Set Fire To The Rain’ has also been endorsed by the star herself as a “gay anthem.”
