Adele Off the Wagon: Singer Reveals How She Beats Hangovers After Going Back to Bottle — Despite ‘Borderline Alcoholism’ in 20s
Aug. 4 2024, Published 12:15 p.m. ET
Adele, the Grammy Award-winning singer with a knack for mending broken hearts with her emotional ballads, seems to have found the perfect remedy for avoiding a hangover — hydration.
RadarOnline.com can reveal that this revelation comes after she kicked off her much-anticipated month-long residency in Germany at a purpose-built stadium in Munich.
The talented artist, worth an estimated $220 million, had given up alcohol last year after confessing to struggles with drinking during her twenties. However, now Adele has embraced moderation and shared her secret to enjoying a drink without suffering the consequences the next day.
In front of 80,000 fans, Adele disclosed her unique strategy, telling her audience: "Hydrate while you dehydrate is what I like to say because I can really drink. I'm British. The key to being able to drink all day and all night is to have a glass of alcohol, you have a glass of water, you have a glass of alcohol, you have a glass of water. So you're hydrating while you dehydrate."
Adele was met with cheers from her audience as she asked: “Are any of you drunk though?”
She added: “I can’t wait to have a drink on Sunday. Oh my God. Putting the show together is crazy. I can’t believe we chose to do it for fun.”
“It’s so high pressure, and I get very, very stressed. Although I will tell you something, I know I need to do a couple of songs, but I also just like talking to people. Sorry, I don’t really get out of the house very much.”
The I Drink Wine singer said she missed having a tipple during her residency in Las Vegas.
She said: “It’s boring. I was literally borderline alcoholic for quite a lot of my twenties, but I miss it so much. I cut out caffeine.”
During her shows at Caesars Palace, Adele joked with her audiences, telling them: “The more you drink, the better I sound.”
