    Adele Teams Up With Former Pearl Jam Drummer for New Music

    by

    WENN/Drummerworld

    The ‘Chasing Pavement’ hitmaker has officially been back in the recording studio, working on a new music with Matt Chamberlain, the ex-drummer of Pearl Jam.

    Dec 18, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Former Pearl Jam drummer Matt Chamberlain worked on new music for singer Adele “this past week.”
    The session musician – who has played for the likes of late music legend David Bowie, Sir Elton John, and Bob Dylan – revealed he was in the studio with the “Hello” hitmaker recently and has recorded some drum parts for the Grammy-winner’s new tunes for her long-awaited follow-up to 2015’s 25.
    Matt admitted he got “chills” hearing Adele’s “powerful and emotive” voice.
    Speaking on “The Eddie Trunk” podcast on SiriusXM, he spilled, “I mean, this past week I just did, I generally do sessions with people – I’m like a session musician I guess, that’s my day job – and I just got to work on some new music for Adele, and to hear that voice in my headphones was getting me chills.”
    “It was just so powerful and emotive. You know her voice, but to be across the room from somebody doing that, it’s just insane.”

    “You hear it on the radio and whatever and you go, ‘Yeah, it’s really good,’ but to be in the room with these people and feel that energy, it’s just so heavy.”
    “She’s writing some new material with her songwriter Rick Nowels, she wanted to do it with some drums and so we just put our masks on, she was in the room – yeah, holy s**t.”
    Eddie’s update comes after it was revealed Adele recently returned to London to work on her new music.
    A source claimed, “Adele wants to lay low while she’s here, which is easy with shades and a face mask. People don’t recognise her like they used to anyway. She’s not been able to release new music yet and she’s totally focused on that and getting each track just right. She still has a network of people she works with and links up with when she is over here.”
    The “Skyfall” hitmaker has also been working with Raphael Saadiq and John Legend on the new album which doesn’t yet have a release date.

      Adele Faces Backlash Over African Sex Tourism Sketch on 'SNL'

      by

      NBC

      The ‘Chasing Pavement’ hitmaker and ‘Saturday Night Live’ come under fire for doing a sketch about African sex tourism during her first hosting gig on the show.

      Oct 29, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Adele and “Saturday Night Live” landed in hot water. They were criticized over a sketch intended to poke fun at sex tourism. In the skit, the “When We Were Young” hitmaker along with “SNL” regulars Kate McKinnon and Heidi Gardner played White divorcees thirsting over African men.
      They invited fans to visit Africa as they made comments full of sexual innuendo about the African men. The female trio described the local males as “tribesmen” and “massive bamboos” while shirtless Black male extras were seen accompanying white women on a beach in the background.
      The parody which described Africa as “the number one destination for divorcees of a certain age” was deemed insensitive, inappropriate, and ill-timed amid the ongoing EndSARS protests taking place in Nigeria.

      “That Africa skit was tone def, insensitive and inappropriate,” tweeted Shenequa Golding, a journalist at R&B news website Vibe. “Men and women in Nigeria, Namibia, South Africa and The Democratic Republic of the Congo are fighting for their lives and to reduce the continent as sexual destination for white women is shameful.”
      MTV host Dometi Pongo made similar comments, “If you’re gonna try to touch that, it’s gotta be just a little smarter & more nuanced or don’t touch it at all. Not (right now).”
      Another person wrote, “@Adele, babes have u no idea whats going on in Africa?. Surly u have African friends who can educate you. #SNL jokes were tasteless and the wrong time babe. #smh! Bring out that album instead.”
      Neither Adele nor “SNL” issued any comments about the controversial sketch which aired last weekend. The episode featuring musical performer by H.E.R. marked Adele’s first time-ever as a host on the NBC show despite her previous visits as a musical guest.

      Adele Jokes About Weight Loss, New Album and Love Life on 'SNL'

      by

      NBC

      The ‘When We Were Young’ hitmaker pokes fun at herself on her first hosting gig on ‘Saturday Night Live’, quipping about her new look, highly-anticipated album, and love life.

      Oct 26, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Adele updated fans on the status of her long-awaited new album during her hosting gig on “Saturday Night Live” (SNL) this weekend (24Oct20).
      The 32-year-old “Someone Like You” hitmaker hosted the sketch comedy show live from New York City, with the Brit remembering her first appearance on the show 12 years ago, calling it her “big break” in the United States, during her monologue.
      She also gave a special shout-out to Sarah Palin, who appeared on that same episode, and went on to provide an update on her next album – the follow-up to 2015’s “25”.
      “My album is not yet finished… I’d rather put on some wigs, have a glass of wine or six and just see what happens,” laughed the hitmaker.
      Adele also addressed her incredible weight loss, quipping, “I know I look really really different since you last saw me but, actually, because of all the Covid restrictions and the travel bans, I had to travel light and I could only bring half of me, and this is the half I chose.”

      Elsewhere in the show, the 32-year-old played herself competing in a The Bachelor-themed sketch, during which she randomly started breaking out in songs, singing her hits including “When We Were Young” and “Hello”.
      “Hi I’m Adele Adkins, I’m 32,” she said in the skit. “You may know me as the singer Adele. I’m here because I’ve had a lot of heartbreak in my life.”

      “First at 19, and then sort of famously at 21. And then even more famously at 25,” Adele said, referencing the numerical titles of her first three albums.

      Confirming her hosting gig on Sunday (18Oct20), Adele took to social media and wrote, “Bloooooody hellllll I’m so excited about this!! And also absolutely terrified! My first ever hosting gig and for SNL of all things!!!!”
      “I’ve always wanted to do it as a stand alone moment, so that I could roll up my sleeves and fully throw myself into it, but the time has never been right. But if there was ever a time for any of us to jump head first into the deep end with our eyes closed and hope for the best it’s 2020 right?”
      She added, “It’ll be almost 12 years to the day that I first appeared on the show, during an election… which went on to break my career in America, so it feels full circle and I just couldn’t possibly say no! I am besides (sic) myself that H.E.R will be the musical guest!! I love her SO much I can’t wait to melt into a flaming hot mess when she performs, then confuse myself while I laugh my arse off in between it all. See you next week.”

      The ‘Someone Like You’ songstress admits she has ‘no idea’ when the follow-up to her 2015 chart-topping album ’25’ will be released when a fan poses the question.
      Aug 17, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Adele has told fans she “honestly has no idea” when her new album will be released.
      The Grammy Award-winning singer took to Instagram to wax lyrical about self-help book “Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living”, written by Glennon Doyle.
      “If you’re ready – this book will shake your brain and make your soul scream,” she wrote. “I am so ready for myself after reading this book! It’s as if I just flew into my body for the very first time. Whew! Anyone who has any kind of capacity to truly let go and give into yourself with any kind of desire to hold on for dear life – Do it. Read it. Live it. Practice it. We are a lot! But we are meant to be a lot!”

      And while the majority of her fans were quick to jump on board with her enthusiasm about the book, one only had one thing on their mind, asking the 32-year-old, “Adele where’s the album?”
      “I honestly have no idea,” Adele replied.

      Adele’s forthcoming album will be her first since 2015’s “25”.

      Adele Forced to Scrap Planned September Release for New Album

      by

      WENN

      Jonathan Dickins, a manager to the ‘Hello’ hitmaker, blames the COVID-19 pandemic for the delay of her first record since 2015, adding that it will only come out when it is ready.
      Jun 26, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Adele’s first album since 2015 is no longer set to debut in September.
      The singer’s manager, Jonathan Dickins, has revealed the COVID-19 pandemic has halted the star’s plans to put a new album out this year.
      “It isn’t coming in September, it’ll be ready when it’s ready,” he tells Newsweek. “We’re all in the same boat; you’re doing stuff and then all of a sudden, the world stops. It’ll come when it’s ready. I can’t put a date on that yet. We have music, but we’re still working (on it).”
      Adele’s last album was the bestselling “25”.
      Several musicians have had to delay or scrap the release dates of much-anticipated albums during the global health crisis, including Lady GaGa, Sam Smith, and Alanis Morissette.
      Adele accidentally let slip that her latest record was set to debut in September during a wedding reception for her pal Laura Dockrill in March. In a clip that made the rounds online, the “Hello” hitmaker could be heard telling the crowd, “Expect my album in September”, before performing at the event.
