Stormzy almost missed seeing Adele dedicate a song to him at a gig.
The ‘Blinded By Your Grace’ hitmaker was famously called out by the ‘When We Were Young’ hitmaker before she sang ‘Make You Feel My Love’ to him at her gig at London’s O2 Arena in May 2016 but he has now revealed that he nearly missed it because he was going to get food.
He told British Vogue magazine: "People think I knew she was gonna shout me out. I swear to God I didn’t. I was just recording, I was Snapchatting, chilling. So Maya’s gone to get food. I’m chilling, recording, recording, and Adele’s talking and he’s like, ‘Yeah we’ve got someone very special in the crowd today, yeah we’ve got Stormzy.’ I said, ‘Oh my days, what.’ The missus [Maya Jama] has come back and I’ve said, ‘Thank God I didn’t go and get the food. That would’ve been turmoil right there.’"
And Stormzy recently surprised Adele himself – by performing at her 30th birthday party.
Posting snaps from the star studded ‘Titanic’ themed bash on social media, he wrote on Instagram for the ‘Throwback Thursday’ trend: "WORDS WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH FOR THIS CAPTION BUT #TBT to the best night of my entire life. Came out and surprised my friend Adele at her birthday party. If you know me you know what this meant the absolute world to me. BEST NIGHT EVER. #WordsCantDescribe #StillBuzzing #YesThatIsAdeleDoingGunFingers #DidYouClockHowISaidMyFriendAdele #YesThatsMyRealLifeFriend #WhatHasLifeBecome #ThankYouGod (sic)"
