Adele Inspires the Internet's New Favourite Meme
The internet’s new favourite meme comes courtesy of Adele. In a now-viral clip of the singer at the NBA All-Star game with boyfriend Rich Paul, she appears to intentionally ignore the camera in front of her with an unbothered look on her face. Her eyes dart back and forth across the arena, looking everywhere except into the camera. As her priceless reaction circulated, the Twitter memes ensued.
“Me avoiding someone when I see them in public,” one user wrote alongside the clip, while another viral tweet read, “me avoiding eye contact with the teacher.” Fans often refer to Adele as a “walking meme,” as she’s certainly inspired many with her comedic reactions. Who could forget the hilarious memes that rolled in following her first-ever Instagram Live?
Adele and Paul’s courtside date comes just two weeks after the two sparked engagement rumours once again. While attending the BRIT Awards on Feb. 8, the singer was spotted wearing a massive pear-shaped diamond ring on that finger, and when asked about the speculation on “The Graham Norton Show” a few days later, she delivered a cheeky response. “If I was [engaged], would I ever tell anyone if I was or wasn’t?” she said. At the NBA All-Star game in Cleveland, Adele had replaced her giant diamond with a simple diamond-studded band.
Ahead, see more photos of Adele and her crew enjoying the game, and prepare to laugh at the memes that followed.
