Adele Pays Emotional Tribute to London's Terror Attack Victims at New Zealand Concert
Grammy-winning singer Adele paid an emotional tribute to the victims of the London terror attack at her concert in Auckland, New Zealand, on Thursday night.
“Today there was a terror attack in my hometown of London. I’m literally on the other side of the world, and I want them to see our lights and to hear us,” she said.
“I feel very far away and very strange not being at home,” she added. “All I want to do today is just be at home and be with my friends and family. Everyone I know is fine, but there are four people that aren’t fine. So let’s dedicate this to them tonight, and to my hometown, which is my soulmate.”
She proceeded to perform a stirring rendition of “Make You Feel My Love” dedicated to the victims.
