Celebrities, they’re just like us! They wear yoga pants sometimes without any makeup (outside of the house!!!!!), exhibit normal bodily functions of a human being, and flip their ever-loving sh*t when they have a chance encounter with Adele. That’s what happened to David Spade, anyway, as he told Ellen in a cringe-worthy anecdote during an interview on her Tuesday show.
Spade says that he was out having sushi when Adele came “traipsing in with her squad.” As he recalls, she was stunning in person without any makeup on. Initially he had the good sense to stay out of her way. I mean she’s a singer-songwriter from the United Kingdom… Would Adele ever have even seen Joe Dirt? Regardless, Spade changed his tune after getting a few glasses of saki in him, presumably, and decided to undergo the humiliating ordeal of getting past Adele’s bodyguard, who “and you are..?“-ed him on the way into her private dining area.
Once in Adele’s presence, Spade recalls how things went downhill from there: “So I go, ‘Hey, Adele. I’m like, really good-looking in America … I’m a huge deal over here,’ and then like, blank looks.” Adele eventually came around and he says she was perfectly sweet, even inviting him to her concert at the Staples Center in August. But in the end, Spade says that he stayed a “solid minute” to “four minutes too long” and horrifyingly ended up inviting Adele to come over to his house.
Somehow it sounds like it managed it get even worse from there. Suffice to say, she never did take the poor guy up on that invitation to hang out.
