Adele gives concert for presidential candidate

HILLARY Clinton took time off from storming the campaign trail in the key state of Florida on Tuesday to take in a prebirthday concert by pop icon Adele. Campaign spokesman Nick Merrill said the awardwinning British singer, who can’t vote in the United States, is “100 percent for Hillary Clinton”, adding: “I love her. She’s amazing.” Merrill says Adele told the audience that while she is British, “what happens in America affects me too”. Clinton turned 69 yesterday. Reporters were not allowed to join Clinton for her concert treat – so we don’t yet know whether the White House hopeful belted out a few of her Adele favourites in the dark.
