Rumor Has It: Is Adele Planning a Secret Wedding?

Adele is as famous for her love of privacy as she is for her beautiful voice. Last year, she announced her pregnancy when she was well into her second trimester, and she has yet to confirm that her baby son’s name is Angelo (though her name necklace and new “A” tattoo are pretty solid hints).

So it stands to reason that this mum would keep mum about her wedding plans as well. But a source tells Us Weekly that she and fiance Simon Konecki are busy putting together a super-secret affair.

“She’s been planning it for a while and is very involved,” says the insider.

The wedding is supposedly set for summer or fall at the couple’s new home in the seaside town of Brighton, England.

We can totally see Adele tying the knot in a romantic beach ceremony at sunset, with little Angelo decked out in a toddler tux. The guests might include Jennifer Lawrence, who apparently struck up a friendship with the singer during the Oscars last month.

The timing would also be right – no conflicts with awards shows, recording schedules or baby due dates.

But as with everything else personal in her life, Adele isn’t breathing a word about whether she is, in fact, going to caterer tastings and trying on gowns.

We’re kinda hoping that this is one rumor with more than a grain of truth.

Adele 'Persuaded By Robbie Williams Over Move To LA To Avoid Spotlight'

Adele 'Persuaded By Robbie Williams Over Move To LA To Avoid Spotlight'

Adele recently insisted that she would never move to America but it looks like she has been easily persuaded by her BFF Robbie Williams to consider a move to Los Angeles in a bid to avoid the spotlight and raise her baby son in a better environment.

The 'Rolling In The Deep hitmaker, who won her first Oscar last month for 'Skyfall,' has reportedly been taking the advice of Take That star Robbie on the best locations in the sunshine city on where to bring up her six-month-old son, away from the prying eyes of the paparazzi in the UK.

Adele, 24, is said to be keen on moving into a gated community where she can build a studio to work on her third studio album.

“Adele can see the benefits of bringing up a child in the US,” a source told The Mirror, adding: “They can be outside, enjoying the weather and loving life out of the spotlight.

“Adele and her man Simon are looking at a pad in one of the exclusive gated communities of Beverly Hills because Robbie and Ayda have told Adele that she would be able to have enough land not to feel too trapped and she could have the privacy she so desperately needs to enjoy life.”

The insider continued: “Los Angeles is a great place for children to grow up and she intends on working a lot more with a new album.

“She could afford to put a studio in her house. That way she could beaver away on new music without having to worry. Apparently, with her reported £20 million fortune, Adele isn't too bothered by the price tag.

“She knows she’s extremely comfortable with money and her lifestyle is very chilled and stress free,” the source said.

“Her personal life very much comes first right now.”

During her acceptance speech at the BRIT Awards in February, Adele denied she was moving to the US: “I’m not living here by the way, just in case you think that, I’m coming home!”

Adele gives her baby son his own mini Oscar

Adele gives her baby son his own mini Oscar

Like mother, like son?

Adele shared a photo on Twitter showing her recently-received Oscar (won for singing the theme from "Skyfall") standing proudly next to a matching mini-statuette for her baby boy.

The little one's souvenir "Oscar" reads: "Best Son."

"...and we're home! What an epic trip. Thanks for having us, Hollywood!" she wrote.

Adele, 24, has not yet revealed the name of the baby boy she welcomed in October with boyfriend Simon Konecki.

The Oscar isn't the only hardware she picked up during her time in Hollywood -- in addition to her Academy Award win (she also performed during the ceremony), she picked up a Golden Globe for best original song for "Skyfall."

Adele, James Bond Movie: Singer Tapped to Write Another Theme Song, Talks New Music Plans

Just a week after Adele's "Skyfall" (the title track for the 27th James Bond movie of the same name) won for Best Original Song at the Academy Awards, she's been tapped to provide the theme song for the next James Bond film as well.

According to Britain's The Sun, producers want the singer to work on music for the films the way Shirley Bassey did, who sang various songs for Bond movies including "Diamonds Are Forever", "Moonraker" and "Goldfinger."

A source told the paper, "Producers are thrilled by how well the song has been received and hope Adele's presence on the next film will replicate that success. They want her to become as synonymous with Bond as Dame Shirley."

Although it looks like Adele will be pretty busy working on the Bond music, it might be some time before we hear a follow-up to 21. She recently said she will only release a new album when she has "something to sing about." She explained, "They'll [new songs] come when they're ready."

Joan Rivers Made Fun Of Adele’s Weight On ‘Letterman’: Did She Cross The Line?

Joan Rivers Made Fun Of Adele’s Weight On ‘Letterman’: Did She Cross The Line?

Look, we love Joan Rivers around these parts. She’s a national treasure, and she’s an old pro when it comes to crossing the line. In fact, she’s one of the best at making distasteful jokes. So when she appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman Tuesday night (February 26), in her post-Oscars celebrity-skewering wheelhouse, we knew things might get ugly. But, like, in a good way. Alas, Joanie decided to roll off a string of fat jokes about Adele. Didn’t she learn from the Melissa McCarthy “hippo” debacle?

All comedians know, if you’re gonna do the fat joke in this day and age, you better do it in a novel way. Joan Rivers did not do it in a novel way last night: ”What is her song? ‘Rolling in the Deep’? She should add fried chicken.” You can just picture the drummer awaiting his cue for the rimshot. That was followed by, “She said, ’My throat, my throat, I don’t know if I can swallow.’ And I said, ‘Oh, you can swallow.’” Comedy? Watch it below.

To be fair, Rivers makes fun of her own physical attributes later in the interview, so she’s equal opportunity with this stuff (as anyone familiar with her material knows). But, yeesh. If it’s go big or go home, she should’ve left those punchlines at home.
