Jessie Ware: "I helped Adele reunite with her best friend"
Quote:
Jessie Ware was embarrassed when her good friend Adele thanked her on stage during a concert.
Up-and-coming singer Jessie, who was recently nominated for two Brit Awards, reunited Adele with a pal she'd drifted apart from and the Skyfall singer was very grateful.
‘Adele and I were at a New Year's Eve party together,' reveals Jessie, 28.
‘I'd been writing with Adele's old friend Laura Dockrill. And I said to Adele at this party, "I'm spending so much time with Laura and she really misses you."
‘Adele was like, "Oh, I miss her too." And I said, "You really should get in touch" and that was it. She went and saw Laura, and they became best friends again.'
Jessie's reconciliation skills were then acknowledged by Adele during her performance at the Royal Albert Hall in 2011.
‘I was so embarrassed,' Jessie tells The New Review.
‘You can see it in the video, I kinda slide down in my seat. It's just been really good watching Adele's success.
‘I remember watching her play in a small tent at Glastonbury. And she was so captivating always, her and her guitar. I just think I've been surrounded by really amazing people, who have inspired me.'
