From stopping her concert midway to watch the Olympic women’s 100m finals to calling out a homophobic concertgoer, one can always expect the unexpected from English singer Adele.
This time, the 36-year-old caught our attention when she invited a lucky Singaporean fan up on stage.
“6,248 miles, come up my love,” shouted Adele.
6,248 miles or 10,055km is the distance from Munich, Germany to Singapore.
The female fan was then brought on stage towards Adele who hugged her before asking for her name.
After excitedly introducing herself as “Hannah”, she was then ushered by Adele, no less, to a side of the stage where her phone-carrying friend, “Yan” was standing.
“Where did you guys come from?” asked Adele, to which Hannah replied, “Singapore”.
“I’ve never been to Singapore. I really want to go to Singapore,” said Adele.
Adele has never performed in Asia before and has expressively said in interviews that she rather spends time with her family than on the road touring.
Singapore ministers, are you hearing this?
Hannah then revealed that she had been in Germany for a week and that she was there “just for you [Adele]”.
She also briefly shared her itinerary of visiting Vienna and touring a lake by boat, to which Adele dryly said, “I’m not built for boats”. The pop diva then further explained that she is frightened that someone will “take a photo of the total eclipse of her arse”.
Pointing to Hannah’s and Yan’s banners, Adele went on to say she is “so glad that you made that little sign” to which the camera panned to Yan with the sign “6,248 miles just to see you Adele”.
Yan also unfolded other banners including a hand-drawn Singapore flag, and two signs that said “Love from Singapore”, and “Amalina sends her love”.
Adele quickly gave a shoutout to Amalina who is Hannah and Yan’s friend back in Singapore.
We also found it incredibly adorable how Hannah said she wanted to “keep looking at [Adele]” .
Hannah naturally got a picture with Adele who animatedly posed for a few shots before reminding the former to take a goodie bag.
After the video went viral online, netizens praised Adele for “always having one of the best fan interactions” at a concert.
Singaporean fans also took to the comments saying how much they want to see Adele performing in Singapore.
One even hilariously wrote that “Edwin Tong needs to get this concert here ASAP!” while another begged Adele to “Come and do a seven-day concert series in Singapore!”
Edwin Tong is the Minister for Culture, Community, and Youth in Singapore and is credited for leading the team that brought American singer Taylor Swift to our shores to play six sold-out shows at the National Stadium
The ‘Rumour Has It’ singer has performed in Munich since August 2 and is set to wrap up the Munich residency this Saturday (Aug 31).
