Adele gives a shoutout to Britney Spears
During the chat, Adele extended her support to Britney Spears over #FreeBritney movement saying, “I love Britney. I've met her a couple of times. I absolutely adore her. I'm really happy for her.” After 13 long years, Britney Spears' father Jamie Spears was removed from the position of her conservator by a court order of suspension. The move came after an intense legal battle during which the pop icon accused her father of years of abuse.

Adele jokes about not rapping Nicki Minaj’s ‘Monster’ verse anymore
Adele first showed off her rapping skills in 2016 during the Carpool Karaoke with James Corden where she rapped an entire verse of Nicki Minaj’s hit single ‘Monster’ and repeated the same in 2019 at a party in LA. Fans got a great opportunity to ask Adele to rap the verse again but it seems like she was not in the mood to hop on the mic. While praising Nicki, Adele asserted, “I love Nicki. She is so talented and i always admired her work ethic. Monster was a smash and I rap to it every day essentially”. She then added, “I'm not gonna rap the ‘Monster’ verse again. I've done it too many times. Everyone thinks I'm a one-trick pony!”
