The three Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 co-stars celebrated the worldwide launch of their movie by eating dinner with another international superstar… Adele!
This isn’t the first time that Jennifer and Adele have been seen hanging out together. Back in January, our spywitnesses spotted them dining at the Los Angeles hotspot Craig’s and Jen was just seen attending Adele‘s Radio City Music Hall concert this weekend.
Sabrina Carpenter hits the recording booth for a special cover of Adele‘s new hit song, “Hello”.
“Got a new cover video coming later today that I think you’re gonna like! Any guesses on what song??” the 16-year-old actress/singer teased her fans on Twitter before dropping it.
Demi Lovato sings her heart out while performing an amazing rendition of the Adele song “Hello” on Saturday night (November 14) at the WaMu Theater in Seattle, Wash.
The 23-year-old singer was one of the several performers in the 106.1 KISS FM Fall Ball that evening.
The Korean high school student from Seoul Music High School took to YouTube to share a very emotional version of the song, accompanied simply by a friend on the piano.
“So… mine and Anth‘s FIRST cover in about 3 years!!!” Conor captioned it. “We lost each other for a while, but like 2 unicorns, we found our way back and landed gracefully in each others arms…. I have no idea what I’m talking about. We both love this song, and hope we did it justice!!! ENJOY!!!”

Taylor Swift‘s refusal to stream her albums on Spotify has been a huge topic of discussion this week and now Adele‘s manager Jonathan Dickins is speaking out to discuss the situation with streaming, which he calls “the future, whether people like it or not.”
“I don’t believe one size necessarily fits all with streaming,” he added (via Billboard). “To get around the situation with someone like Taylor Swift — and Spotify won’t do it — is that maybe there is a window between making something available on the premium service earlier than its made available on the free service.”
“What’s interesting is that people take things down off Spotify, yet if I search now for Taylor Swift on YouTube, within the space of 30 seconds I can have the whole Taylor Swift [album] streamed. Some of it is ad-supported, so there is revenue, and some of it’s not,” Jonathan continued.
Adele famously wouldn’t let her album 21 be streamed on Spotify until long after it was released.
“On the one hand, the labels are trumping YouTube as a marketing tool and 10 million views is [hailed] as a marketing stroke of genius,” he continued. “On the other hand, they’re looking at 10 million streams on Spotify and going: ‘That’s X amount of lost sales.’ So I think there is a lopsided effect. For an artist that needs discovering, anyone who has got a real good album, but is very niche, I think streaming is great for them. Taylor Swift probably looks at it and thinks, ‘There is an element of cannibalisation. I am a brand. People know who I am and I want to protect the record sales.’ And that’s fair enough.”
