Adele's Best Performances

Hello . . . These Are the Best Adele Performances You've Been Looking For

Adele is a force of nature, and her powerful voice has dazzled millions all over the world. The singer has won 15 Grammys and sold over 120 million records, but her down-to-earth approach to her career hasn't always resulted in timely album releases. Her last one was 2015's 25, and so far there hasn't been any hints of what she's working on (although we would be partial to a rap album).

But let's be fair, turning 31 and getting a divorce can be a bit overwhelming. And that's OK. As Adele celebrates her life and works on self-love, we'll wait for her next steps while enjoying the best live performances she gave us, the ones she made us cry, laugh, and cheer.
