When I heard Adele’s Easy on Me for the first, I started to cry. I think most people were overcome with the feels.
However, when Lizzo listened to it, her body was overcome with wanting to dance to the ballad. So she got up from her chair and started to twerk to Adele’s powerful words. That is why she is who she is.
She sees the light in the darkness and goes for it. And now I can’t stop twerking to Adele’s songs. And let me tell you, Hello is an invitation for sex!
Next month, it will be six years since Adele released her album 25. Therefore, we desperately need new music from her, and she will be delivering that the day before her last studio album’s sixth anniversary.
Today, she announced that 30 will be coming out on November 19th. So we have another reason to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. The singer also revealed why the album was delayed all of these years.
30
I was certainly nowhere near where I’d hoped to be when I first started it nearly 3 years ago, Quite the opposite actually. I rely on routine and consistency to feel safe, I always have. And yet there I was knowingly – willingly even, throwing myself into a maze of absolute mess and inner turmoil!
I’ve learned a lot of blistering home truths about myself along the way. I’ve shed many layers but also wrapped myself in new ones. Discovered genuinely useful and wholesome mentalities to lead with, and I feel like I’ve finally found my feeling again. I’d go as far as to say that I’ve never felt more peaceful in my life. And so, I’m ready to finally put this album out.
It was my ride or die throughout the most turbulent period of my life. When I was writing it, it was my friend who came over with a bottle of wine and a takeaway to cheer me up. My wise friend who always gives the best advice. Not to forget the one who’s wild and says “It’s your Saturn return babes fuck it, you only live once”. The friend who’d stay up all night and just hold my hand while I’d sob relentlessly not knowing why. The get up and go friend who would pick me up and take me somewhere I said I didn’t want to go but just wanted to get me out the house for some vitamin D. That friend who snuck in and left a magazine with a face mask and some bath salts to make me feel loved while inadvertently reminding me not only what month it actually was but that I should probably exercise some self-care!
And then that friend who no matter what, checked in on me even though I’d stopped checking in with them because I’d become so consumed by my own grief. I’ve painstakingly rebuilt my house and my heart since then and this album narrates it.
Home is where the heart is x
After reading that, I can’t even imagine how gutwrenching the ballads are going to be. I already got the tissues ready. I come prepared.
It has been almost six years since Adele released new music, but the drought is about to come to an end. Today, the singer released a 21-second clip and said, “Easy On Me – October 15.”
That means we have ten days to buy up all of the tissues from Sam’s Club and Costco because you know we are going to cry like babies when we hear the song. I am crying now just thinking about it.
Adele celebrated her 32nd birthday in isolation, but her fans made her feel like she was not alone. Therefore, she wanted to thank them for making her special day actually feel special.
She did that by sharing a full-length picture of herself. In that photo, we got to see her incredible weight loss, and she looks as gorgeous as her voice. Then again, she was always beautiful.
Adele went to Jay-Z and Beyonce’s secret Oscar party. So secret, guests were not allowed to take photos inside or even use social media. However, they had no control about what happened outside.
That is where Polish television personality Kinga Rusin snapped a photo with the singer. Had the two not talked inside the party, she never would have recognized Adele. None of us would because she looks so different since she lost the weight. I have been staring at the photo and I am still not sure it is her. It is the cat-eye eyeliner that gives her away.
It is going to take a while to get used to her new look, but we will do it. As soon as she releases that rumored album that is due out this year.
