James Corden keeps upping the ante on his Carpool Karaoke passengers and his latest one is his greatest get so far. That’s because he got Adele to go for a ride with him. The singer with the angelic voice braved the rain in London to be with him and together they sang some tunes and shared some stories.
She told him about getting drunk a few nights earlier at a bar and befriending a family she didn’t even know while she waited for a friend to join her. Then she told him that Ginger Spice was the first person to ever break her heart when she left the Spice Girls. You see, Adele is such a big fan of the quintet that she used to have Spice Girls parties. Then The Late Late Show host and her sang Wannabe. But that wasn’t the only song she sang by another artist, she also rapped to Nicki Minaj’s Monster. As soon as Minaj hears this she is going to take a super bass in her anaconda. Because that is what we are all doing.
Seriously, Adele is such a good rapper, I am hope she includes a rap song on her next album that will not be named after age. She told the CBS host that she believes in trilogies and 25 was the end of this trilogy.
Seriously, stop what you are doing and watch this. It will be the best 15 minutes of your day!
UPDATE: Here’s what Nicki Minaj thinks about Adele doing Monsters, “Pull thru, QUEEN!!!!! 😜🙈🏆👑👑👑 #Adele #Monster the attitude & fingers to match. #Oh #Ok #IcoNic ❤️ I cried when she waved bye to the careers 😩 #Hello #BuhBye 😩🙋🏽”

Adele will not be touring The States until this summer, but you can see her live tonight at 10p on NBC for free. About a month ago, the singer with a heavenly voice, gave a special performance at Radio City Music Hall (one of the best places to see a concert) and NBC recorded the one night on;y intimate show for us to enjoy.
The one hour live special is pretty much just her singing several of her hits, with a little bit of talk from her. Since it is Adele, she curses and that is just another reason why we love her.
She revealed which song is her song more than any of the other ones. Plus, she tells the packed audience that she is happy is her man is there to hear her sing it because he’s never seen her live and this tune has new meaning to her because of him. She doesn’t have to write any songs for him after that declaration.
What songs does she perform tonight? She wows us with Hello, Set Fire to the Rain, All I Ask, Skyfall, Someone Like You, Million Years Ago, When We Were Young and Rolling in the Deep. The last one is performed more upbeat than the album version, and it leaves the audience and herself in tears.
While this is not as good as being there, it is pretty gosh darn close. Her voice is so powerful, you truly feel like you are there and I listened via computer speakers. Men, if you want to get laid tonight, then watch this with your special lady. Ladies, just watch because we all love Adele.

Adele’s Hello is this year’s greatest ballad, but how would the huge hit sound if it were a Rock song? Anthony Vincent‘s followers told him to rework the song in style of Green Day and he did. I am not going to go as far as to say that it is better than the original, but it is pretty gosh darn close. The vibe totally works for the heart-wrenching song.
Rock on!
Adele was a guest on The Tonight Show the other night and Jimmy Fallon asked her to perform her song Hello with The Roots using just classroom instruments and she said yes. Now, if you are like me, then you wondered how they are going to do that because the school instruments would make the ballad more upbeat. It does, and it somehow works brilliantly. But then again can Adele do any wrong?
The best part about this version of the chart topper, is that it is one time you won’t cry when you listen to it.
And on that note, could you imagine being in that small room and hearing her angelic voice in a confined space like that. They probably felt like they were transported to heaven when she reached the chorus. I know I would.
Many of us dread Thanksgiving dinner because you never know when your family is going to fight. How do you prevent that? You can’t, but Saturday Night Live showed us you can control the situation. Just play Adele’s 25 and everyone will be getting along as long as the music playing. So do everything in your power to make sure it doesn’t stop or the war will restart all over again. And you don’t want that happen because there are some really sharp knives at the table.
