The Grammy-winning singer shared her thoughts during a concert at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas on Friday, sparking excitement among fans.

Addressing the audience, Adele candidly said, “I don’t really like musicals. I think it’s an art and a craft, but it just doesn’t do anything for me.” Despite this, she confessed, “Whatever this Wicked campaign has going on, I am gagged to see it. I am excited.” She added that the film’s marketing had worked on her, convincing her to watch it after her residency wrapped up.

What a supportive queen!,” reports DailyMail.
