Adele gets the royal treatmentIf it were up to us Adele would win all the awards, so we heartily approve of the singer receiving a royal nod on Thursday. The Grammy-winning songstress was presented with an MBE medal from Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace on December 19 in recognition of her (excellent) services to music.
The medal places Adele as a Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, which is one of the highest honors a British citizen can receive. Her full title, according to The Independent, is now Miss Adele Adkins MBE. In a statement, Adele called the ceremony "a very proud moment," and one that was "very posh indeed." The 25-year-old has been off the radar musically, but after releasing the global phenomenon "21" it makes sense she'd want a break. We haven't seen hide nor hair of the skilled singer, except for the rare occasions she's been spotted out with her one-year-old son.

THEY LIED..IM SORRY I NEEDED TOO GET HER...SHE LIED....SHE'S NOT FOR YOU
BYE
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
What, they can't make her a knight? They can do better than give some medal with the bottom all frayed and falling apart.
Good for her, with that amazing voice.
Her music is very one note and blah. She's an average singer at best. Plus someone that takes their talent and starts smoking is worthless in my mind. I doubt she'll ever be back in the charts again. She might as well enjoy whats left of her remaining celebrity.
PS- Love all the fat jokes on here. Cheers!
Most british people are made out of paper.
There is no such thing as British royalty. Royalty doesn't exist in England.
Ask Nick Leeson.
There is no such thing as Nick Leeson.
Sorry, but I lost complete respect for Adele when she so classily shafted people for starting the 'wrap-up' music because she was going on and on and on and on...I instantly went from huge fan to still turning the station every time one of her songs comes on. Ugh.
No idea what you're talking about, but I will give you a wee heads up; musicians and other performers are human, and they make mistakes and have flaws just like anyone else. Whether she is 'worthy' of your attention, that's up to you but the only person losing out on that one is you.
So...MBE award means, Member of the Order of the British Empire. Congratulations to her, I love her music!
she is amazing, period
A little bit of Jenny Craig and she will beat the Kardazian.
What is "the Kardazian?"
Adele! i'm really looking forward to see you on the stage next year.
Have a great christmas!! 🙂
kaylin, STFU.
Who is Adele? The photo looks like Candy Crowley.
She looks 40 with that fat face.
You sound 14 with that comment of yours.
Weight changes but character does not and your lack of it is showing.
Wouldn't you love to have an ounce of her talent and money? She is the best- just because you aren't 100 pounds doesn't mean you can't be a success. one of the best female voices ever – period..
What a nice caring honorable person you must be.
I'm sure Adele will be back on the charts next year. Happy 2014!
Yeah, the seismic activity charts!
WOW ! Jennifer Lawrence lost weight! She is looking good in this picture.
Day 2 and your J-Law fat jokes are still falling flat. Nice try, man.
It was the lamest comment here. Go suck a knob.
@Jake; you asked about her, so here she is..lol
