Pride Month, in June, is when LGBTQI+ communities around the world come together to celebrate the freedom to be themselves.
One audience member heckled Adele , leaving the singer unimpressed.
“Did you come to my f****** show and just say that Pride sucks?” she asked.
“Are you f****** stupid? Don’t be so f****** ridiculous. If you have nothing nice to say, shut up, alright?”
The audience cheered after Adele directly called out the person.
The video surfaced on X, with users responding: “Imagine Adele saying this to you. Oh I would just disappear”.
“I love Adele for this! Why do people love to say cruel things like this? It’s so uncalled for and disgusting,” said another.
“If Adele said this to me, I’d never show my face again,” added a third.
Adele has made her support of the LGBTQI+ community known throughout her career.
Following the 2016 massacre of 49 people at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, she shared her heartbreak on stage.
“I would like to start tonight by dedicating this entire show to everybody in Orlando and at Pulse nightclub last night,” she said at the time.
“The LGBTQ community, they’re like my soulmates since I was really young. So I’m very moved by it.”
She later called her popular song, Set Fire To The Rain, a “gay anthem”.
In 2018, Adele became a marriage celebrant and officiated at the ceremony of her good friend, comedian Alan Carr and his husband.
“Seeing as the cat’s out the bag, I married two of my best friends in January. You know, me any excuse to dress up @chattyman #LoveisLove,” she wrote on Instagram at the time.
Along with the message, she shared a photo of her in front of a giant flower wall ahead of the service.
Adele has been performing her Vegas residency since November 2022.
The 100-show program is expected to finish in November this year.
The concerts have been well received but they got off to a rocky start.
The star was forced to delay the residency just hours before the first concert was due to begin.
“Hi, listen, I’m so sorry but my show ain’t ready,” she began her teary postponement announcement in 2022.
“We’ve tried absolutely everything that we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID.”
Adele had announced the planned residency in December 2021.
