In a similar stage setup to her 2016 tour, the 28-year-old stood in a sparkling dress in the middle of a small black stage extended into the audience to deliver the hit ballad. It was a minimal set, which saw Adele and only Adele offer up all of the emotions we ran through last year. At the end of the number, she also showed some love to her 4-year-old son Angelo James. "Hello, baby!" she said at the end of the performance.
I loved this. Really, I loved Adele. Everything she did, last night, was spot on perfection. From this sweet hello to the screw up during George Michael and the way she handled it, to her graciousness accepting her awards. Oh, yeah, and there's the whole being mesmerized by her performances thing too.
Oh, one more thing. I just loved the way Adele handled the George Michael gaffe. Felt so bad for her. I wanted to jump through the screen and give her a hug. She seemed to be so genuinely disappointed in herself, which I can understand. BUT Adele, as I tweeted.....it's ok, really it is. We already knew you were human. That's why we love you so much. Ugh, that face.....
