When you split up with with someone, there’s a set of rules as to how you go about it. You can’t do it by text, you can’t do it in a public place and you can’t ask for a percentage of any any money made from the upset that you’re causing. It seems Adele’s ex boyfriend didn’t get the memo on this one though as after the event he decided it was his God damn right to have slice of the pie. After all it was him that caused all that solid gold upset and Adele was selfishly putting all that grief money into her purse. What a cow!
Here’s what she had to say on the matter:
“For about a week he was calling and was deadly serious about it. Finally, I said, ‘Well, you made my life hell, so I lived it and now I deserve it. He really thought he’d had some input into the creative process by being a prick. I’ll give him this credit – he made me an adult and put me on the road that I’m travelling.”
That’s the scummiest thing we’ve heard in a while. Not since Kate Moss split with Pete Doherty have we been so elated that someone in the spotlight had a breakup. Still we kind of respect his brass neck. Imagine watching this video knowing it was about you:
Then once you’ve watched it thinking “Wow, that was powerful. Wonder how much it will make. Where’s my phone?”
The real shame is Adele has acted with a lot of dignity over what seems to have been one of the worst break ups in history. She’s never actually named her ex, and has never given away enough detail for him to be narrowed down. We’ve had a google around but can’t quite find out who he is. If you know and could name and shame in the comments (we’re not above doing what she won’t) we’d be more than obliged!
In other news we hear Gaddafi is sueing Bruno Mars for his Grenade song.
If Adele’s ex he had succeeded though he would have been in for a fair old pay out. Adele has just become the highest new entry in The Times Young Rich List for young music stars, racking up an estimated 6million from her success on both sides of the pond – success which shows no sign of abating.
