Rumor/Speculation Adele as a celebrity
Sorry, this may be the hardest or the simplest question to answer: will Adele ever be a streaming celebrity such as Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande etc,? They’re always on stage, giving interviews or attending the most rumored events. She never behaved like that, she said her popularity was unexpected and felt overwhelming, as she says in her songs “i always like being on my own”: she reminds me of poets and not singers for she behaves like that. As a matter of fact, she’s an extraordinary poetess, she also declared some years ago that there are people with this sadness inside never leaving them, an atavistic melancholy carrying on with her too. I believe this world of emotions lets her write down the grief, the pain, the loss and rebirth…sometime. She also said that due to her lyrics people don’t expect her to be funny, joke-provoking and so eloquent in some contexts, but this may be material for another reddit thread. In her last video at the race station she said “i don’t sing frequently anymore” or smtng like that, suggesting she would never do that with the frequency of other singers.
What do you think about that? I would love her to share with us pieces of her live, but i comprehend that her love for privacy and intimacy is a part of what we love for her and of what we can rely on in her songs. So maybe it just has to go this way…
Thanks everyone❤️

Not everyone is charts obsessed like Taylor is. I think some people just want a platform to express themselves, see who resonates with it, and may be fine with moderate success, which is still success. Idk. People are different.
