In between rehearsals for her upcoming Vegas residency, “Weekends With Adele,” Adele held a special fan event for the premiere of her “I Drink Wine” video.
During the event, she held a Q&A portion for fans. A fan asked if Adele had listened to Taylor Swift’s new album, Midnights, which she released last Friday (October 21)
“I haven’t,” she said. “But the only reason I haven’t listened is ’cause I’ve been in rehearsals for like 12 hours a f*cking day. But, I think Taylor’s one of the greatest songwriters of our generation so I’ll definitely give it a listen.”
“I loved the two [albums] in COVID very, very much,” she added, referring to her 2020 albums, Folklore and Evermore. “I think she’s fun, as well. She makes a release fun.”

She began teasing the video last year, during a make-up tutorial video with YouTuber Nikkie Tutorials.
“It’s the campest thing you’ll ever see,” said Adele, “and I feel like everyone might be dressed up on Halloween for it next year. There are just so many funny parts of it!”
