Adele is set to perform in her first network special with Adele Live in London. It airs June 5th on NBC. She recently told Matt Lauer that she’s tired of being famous. Adele said, “I was adopting an Ethiopian child, that’s not true. My house was haunted, that wasn’t true. God, there’s been so many rumors. I don’t want to be a celebrity. I don’t want to be in people’s faces, constantly on covers of magazine that I haven’t even known I’m on.
Adele admitted she’s managed to keep some privacy without being recognized. She said, “I was in a park with tourists, so I was a bit worried. I was in my pajamas. I was in color. I’m always in black. I threw pumps on, this massive green coat and then little pink pumps. Nobody recognized me. A couple looked round but they were like, ‘No, she’s in color.’ And what would she be doing walking through a packed Trafalgar Square on a Saturday? I just wanna make music. I don’t want anyone chatting about me, really. I still hope I have a little bit of clout in 10 years. All I’ve ever wanted to do is sing.”
