How Adele’s Gone Incognito in London Lately

If you’re trying to spot Adele in London, look for the lady in the PJs. “I walked through Trafalgar Square on a Saturday afternoon — tourist haven — in pajamas,” the Grammy winner tells Matt Lauer in the upcoming NBC Adele Live in London special.

Even more shocking? The songstress was wearing color. “I’m always in black,” she says. “It was this tracksuit, with a massive green coat and little pink pumps. I had this massive umbrella so no one recognized me.”

The superstar says a few onlookers did do a double-take, but no one approached her. “A couple looked around, but they were like, ‘No … she’s in color and what would she be doing walking around a packed Trafalgar Square on Saturday in pajamas?’” she jokes.

During the special, Adele also speaks about her 2012 Grammy performance; it was her first time back onstage after her throat surgery, but she was thinking about more than just her voice. “I had three or four pairs of Spanx on that night,” she reveals, laughing. “I took a few pairs off when I sang, though.”

Hear more from Adele in the clip above, and catch the full NBC special on Tuesday, June 5, at 8 p.m. ET.

Such an inspiration! So much feelings, and emotions. I am so glad that there is a singer out there who can make it because she is talented and not because she dances around half-naked in her videos. Moreover, she is gorgeous!

I believe that we should all have to post a picture of ourselves when we post so that we can see what all the haters really look like. They are so disgusting, OR their nasty comments should not be accepted.
I agree that Adele is amazing in every way shape and form.

I think Adele has an amazing voice.

As for the Marilyn Monroe being a size 16 at her heaviest, it was a size 16 AT THAT TIME. It’s closer to a size 8 or 10 in today’s size – and that’s AT HER HEAVIEST. Her clothes were custom tailored, and she had amazing proportions, but she was smaller than most American women of today.

Adele is fresh, innovative and is the only singer worth listening to nowadays. NBC corrected the date given in their article for the show – it will be aired Sunday, June 3rd, @8pm ET.

Anyone who makes a comment about someone either being too fat or too skinny needs to have a reality check.

Adele is so beautiful. Love her voice and accent! Love her attitude. We need more like her and her beautiful voice in this world.

I love that none of those ignorant people gave her kudos for the weight she lost a couple years ago. She lost about 40 pounds. As for the uneducated person that says she weighs 400 lbs…you need help. Most websites say she’s about 165…I would’ve said nothing over 180. We do have to remember that tv and pics can make people look heavier. But you rude people…that are probably fat yourselves…sit behind a computer and boost your self-esteem by making fun of celebs. Just remember…those celebs don’t care one bit about you…and they have a life you’ll NEVER have!!!

I did not know the way to go incognito is to tell everyone where and how you dress when you are incognito. Kind of doesn’t make sense.
I like Adele, and she has a good voice. . .and as far as her having weight on her who cares.

Heather on

Who cares what size she is? What does that have to do with her talent? Nothing! People can be so shallow and rude.
