Adele is sharing words of support for Taylor Swift!
During her residency show in Las Vegas on Saturday, Adele, 35, said Swift, 34, has made the NFL “more enjoyable to watch” and defended the “Karma” singer against those slamming her attendance at NFL games in support of boyfriend Travis Kelce.
In a video posted by a fan account on X, (formerly Twitter), on Saturday, Adele addressed the audience over the criticism Swift has received as she also shared who she wants to win the 2024 Super Bowl.
“I think I want the Chiefs to win,” Adele said in the clip, causing the audience to cheer in The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, where her residency is held.

“… And all of you that are complaining about Taylor being at the game, get a f—ing life — it’s her f—ing boyfriend!” she said, referring to Kelce, 34, as more cheers erupted in the theater.
“It’s actually made it a bit more enjoyable to watch, because like I said I have no idea what’s going on,” Adele added.
Swift is expected to be attending the Super Bowl in support of boyfriend Kelce as his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
On Saturday, Gracie Hunt, daughter of Kansas City Chiefs chairman and CEO Clark Hunt, spoke to PEOPLE at the Fanatics Super Bowl Party red carpet in Las Vegas and confirmed that the singer was traveling from Tokyo to Las Vegas to watch Kelce play in the 2024 Super Bowl.
“She’s coming! She’s coming! We’re excited,” Gracie told PEOPLE.
Swift has attended several NFL games in recent months as her romance with Kelce has blossomed, after first attending on Sept. 24.

Meanwhile, Adele’s comments in defense of Swift and Travis come after she interacted with Travis’ brother Jason Kelce at her Las Vegas concert on Friday night as he attended with his wife Kylie Kelce.
In a video posted on X from the show, Adele asked the audience who they’d like to win the Super Bowl, with them shouting out either the Chiefs or 49ers. Jason, 36, then jokily shouted out “Eagles!” in support of his team the Philadelphia Eagles.
“What did he say?” Adele asked the audience. “You sound drunk, and like you’re a football fan,” she jokingly told Jason as he was heard laughing in response.
Whether you like it or not, Taylor Swift is at the epicenter of Super Bowl LVIII conversation, with fans and media alike awaiting her arrival at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, as if she’s a player.
Poised to make her 13th appearance this season at an NFL game Sunday night, Swift has garnered immense backlash for publicly supporting boyfriend Travis Kelce, a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, throughout the year.
But popstar Adele, who is currently performing her residency in Las Vegas, has absolutely zero tolerance for those ridiculing Swift for inundating football culture.

“I’m a bit torn because I kind of want the [San Francisco] 49ers to win, but I’m also a Chiefs fan. I think I want the Chiefs to win just because… Taylor Swift’s boyfriend,” she said to an animated crowd. “And all of you that are complaining about Taylor Swift being at games, get a f—ing life, it’s her f—ing boyfriend.”

“It’s like she made it a bit more enjoyable to watch, cause like I said, I have no idea what’s going on,” Adele admitted.

Earlier this weekend, Chiefs owner Clark Hunt offered similar sentiments to Fox News Digital, saying it’s been “so exciting and completely unexpected” for Chiefs Kingdom to gain a fan in Swift.
“As a result, we do have a whole bunch of new fans, and that’s been fantastic. Not only here in North America, but really across the globe,” Hunt stated.
“I’m so excited to have Taylor bring in all the Swifties, so many women and young girls, because it’s our favorite sport, but they didn’t know it was their favorite sport, and we’re certain it will be going forward,” Tavia Hunt added.

Since September, when Swift appeared at Arrowhead Stadium to watch Kelce play, their relationship has been tabloid fodder. Swift has frequently been shown during television broadcasts and on stadium screens while appearing at the games, something she has made clear that she cannot control.
“I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in,” she told Time in December of photographers. “There’s a camera, like, a half-mile away, and you don’t know where it is, and you have no idea when the camera is putting you in the broadcast, so I don’t know if I’m being shown 17 times or once.”
Swift added, “I’m just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and p—ing off a few dads, Brads and Chads.”
