Adele’s residency in Germany has already spawned a viral moment. Today (August 3), the “I Drink Wine” singer seemingly stopped her sold-out show to watch the Women’s track and field 100-meter final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Although there was a competitor from Adele’s home country (Great Britain), in the running, all eyes were on another Olympian—Sha’Carri Richardson. In a now-viral clip, one attendee recorded the massive crowd watch the highly-anticipated race.

Last month, Adele revealed she had “no plans” to release new music. But if she grows bored during break, maybe she’ll consider diving into sports commentary with sports agent Rich Paul as her romantic partnered, Adele surely has insider knowledge.
