A demonstration of elegance, from every point of view.

It was during her infamous hit
Skyfall
, from the soundtrack of one of the James Bonds, that the 34-year-old British artist abruptly cut short, having noticed the commotion in the audience.
She then asked her band to stop playing, raising her hands and shouting, "Stop, stop, stop."
Adele then approached the crowd, urging them to “step aside”, to ask: “Security?
Do you need help from security?”.
The interpreter of
Rolling in the Deep
then guided the security service to the struggling fans: “Right in the middle, you see them, they are waving.
Can you see them there, can you go there?”
Before reassuring the unfortunate until they are out of danger: “They are coming, they are coming.
Everyone step aside, please”.
The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter only resumed her concert after making sure people had been taken to safety.
Then resumed his title
Skyfall
to the cheers of an audience who wanted to applaud his gesture.

This intervention by Adele recalls the infamous concert of Travis Scott, during the Astroworld festival in November 2021, during which a stampede killed nine people and injured hundreds of others.
Since this tragic incident, artists have become more sensitive to the safety conditions of their audience during concerts.
Adele seems to be leading the way.
