I loved that she was jamming out to the other performances while everybody else just sat there. Showed that she has such a lovable demeanor.

Didn't she admit to crying the first time she met Beyonce? She's totally a Bey stan, lol. She wasn't just singing the hook, she was hitting the ad-libs! It was cute to see her actually enjoying the performances though instead of just being a stone statue like so many other celebs do now. It's like they're afraid to show that they're human enough to enjoy themselves.

Beyonce also has been in awe of Adele- per Adele, Bey told her that listening to her is like listening to God.

While others are pimping out their pregnancies to gain interest in their albums, Adele just slays 'em by standing there with a mic.

While others are pimping out their pregnancies to gain interest in their albums, Adele just slays 'em by standing there with a mic. I hate comments like this. Low jabs at other singers to point out how Adele can do it with a mic. The funny thing is that it's always a comment against someone like Beyonce, or Gaga. Oddly enough, two people that actually could stand there with a mix and give that kind of performance that could wow an audience just as well. People, however, expect BeyoncΓΖΓΒ© to give a big accompanying dance performance and Gaga to give a big spectacle but I would love for Gaga to stand at a mic, just once, and blow away an audience with just the song. It's great that Adele can do that but that doesn't mean those that choose other ways to perform are less able or deserving. I realize the quote is referring only to BeyoncΓΖΓΒ©'s pregnancy, which is something the media is interested in more than anything. Sure she's playing it up but why wouldn't she? It's part of being a public figure. Eventually, Adele's shtick will get old for a lot of people. She might be here to stay but she'll still have to change it up sooner than later.

The funny part about that comment is that Beyonce can EASILY sit her ass down and bust out a ballad - and she HAS. Adele could NEVER, and I mean, NEVER, pull off one of Beyonce's performances when she's doing her thang.

2 completely different artists, both brilliant at what they do, probably appealing to 2 different demographics. They seem to have genuine respect and affection for each other, maybe that's something their fans can learn from?

She is slaying worldwide doing her OWN thing.

I was responding to this:

To say that Beyonce pimped out her pregnancy for album sales is tacky. Adele pimped out her horrible ex lovers for album sales of her past two albums, that's equally tacky. I'm just calling out the lack of sense.

I agree, I never understand why people (and not just the poster on here, b/c SOOO many stans do this) can't just be happy for one artist's success without having to drag another artist down. ESPECIALLY when the artists' identities are completely independent of and unrelated to each other.

I think the fact that Adele and Beyonce' are fans of each other is sooo adorable. I love that she was enjoying herself and jamming out to all the performances, she just comes across so down-to-earth and likable, I wish more artists were like that. And yes, she is absolutely GORGEOUS.

I'm just calling out the lack of sense. To be fair, you are falling into the trap of becoming like the people who's actions you despise. Let's not get into tit for tat here, both Adele and Beyonce have lots of respect and adoration for each other so why can't their respective fans adopt the same mentality?

The difference is that her ex lovers are the subject of 21, while pregnancy has absolutely no relation to 4. It was tacky to generate album sales with a subject unrelated to the topic.
That being said, I don't actually think that was Beyonce's intention and actually just wanted to announce her pregnancy.

My last note on it. SHE'S PREGNANT!!! The fact that she released her album a few months ago is timing that sure is convenient. But to say that she's using her pregnancy for album sales is just completely annoying, and insulting. I wish ALL Beyonce/Adele fans could be more like Beyonce/Adele.

It kinda was like oh she made this big hoopla at the VMA's. She could have did it in a formal manner. However, she was probably overjoyed with excitement.

Song Of The Summer: Vote Now For Your Favorite by John Mitchell in Music, Newsroom Poll Can you guys believe summer is just about over? This is it! The end. That means it's also our last chance to reflect on the hot and heavy season that was. All summer long we've been watching the charts to see which songs took off and which ones missed the boat, and now it's time to assess the damage. We know Katy Perry made history when "Last Friday Night" moved into the No. 1 spot, giving her a fifth chart topper from her Teenage Dream record and tying Michael Jackson's record for most number ones from a single album. We also sat back and watched as Britney Spears' Femme Fatale gave the VMA-winning pop princess more top tens than any other record in her career. This summer also marked hip-hop's return to the top of the charts, as its two biggest stars, Jay-Z and Kanye West, collaborated on a hit album, Watch The Throne, while Nicki Minaj scored her biggest smash yet ("Super Bass") and Eminem and Royce Da 5'9" joined forces for Bad Meets Evil and scored a hit with "Lighters" featuring Bruno Mars. Then there were those undeniable tracks, songs that were ubiquitous at radio. Chief among these, of course, was Adele's "Rolling In The Deep," a song that spent pretty much the entire summer in the top ten, peaking at No. 1 for several weeks in late-May and early-June. LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" has been an inescapable summer surprise, just like Lady Gaga's "The Edge of Glory" β a song that was not originally intended as a single, but caught on so quickly after Mother Monster released it ahead of Born This Way that she corrected course, shot a video and watched it perform better at radio than her album's two lead singles, "Born This Way" and "Judas." If there's one thing that's certain, it's that it's been a great summer for music. There's been so much good stuff that we in the MTV Newsroom can't decide what song to crown the Song of the Summer β¦ so we're leaving it up to you. Vote in our Songs of Summer 2011 poll after the jump and let us know your fave. Polls are open now and close at noon on Wednesday, Sept. 7. Vote now. Vote often. Tell your friends and take it to Twitter with the hashtag #MTVSOS. What Was Your Favorite Song of Summer 2011? "Give Me Everything," Pitbull "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)," Katy Perry "Rolling In the Deep," Adele"Moves Like Jagger," Maroon 5 featuring Christina Aguilera "Party Rock Anthem," LMFAO "I Wanna Go," Britney Spears "Otis," Jay-Z and Kanye West "S&M," Rihanna "Lighters," Bad Meets Evil featuring Bruno Mars "The Edge of Glory," Lady Gaga "Super Bass," Nicki Minaj "Dirty Dancer," Enrique Iglesias featuring Usher and Lil Wayne "Pumped Up Kicks," Foster the People "You Make Me Feel," Cobra Starship featuring Sabi "Where Them Girls At," David Guetta featuring Nicki Minaj vote here: newsroom.mtv.com/2011/08/31/song-of-the-summer-poll/
