What does it take to get
Adele
back on Twitter, where she hasn’t been seen since October? A bunch of British soccer players singing one of her songs, apparently.
An extremely minor league soccer team in Lancashire, England called Chorley Football Club has made it a point of singing Adele’s #1 hit “Someone Like You” every time they win. Over the weekend, they scored yet another victory, and the players — about half of them shirtless — posted a
video of themselves
in the locker room afterward, belting out the tune.
They tagged Adele in the post and she
responded
with a heart emoji. Fans
immediately
began begging her to release her next album, with one writing
cheekily
, ”
Don’t you wanna drop new music that they can vibe to? These poor little soccer players?
”
However, other replies slammed the team themselves for being irresponsible by gathering together in their locker room without any masks in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
When she hosted
Saturday Night Live
in October, Adele claimed her album wasn’t done yet. Many industry insiders believe she’ll release it this year, but that remains to be seen. Meanwhile, January 24 marks the 10th anniversary of the release of her world-beating smash album
21.
Here we go, then –
