Take a break from posting facts because you don't want to come to terms with the fact that Adele is in fact the most successful pop act of this generation and could be even more successful if she actually milked it?
Get out of 2010, realize that Adele is popstar, not because YOU don't want her to be so she doesn't compete with Gaga, realize that people are interested beyond the music, and realize that Adele happened and became more successful than her.

Hit the nail on the head.
Adele could have the big tours, the multi million dollar endorsements, etc but she doesn't want them and she doesn't need them. She's stated several times she doesn't want her name attached to another corporate brand.

That's not the point though. SHE made the decision to not have that achievement, not the GP.

I'm going to ignore this if I reply it'll definitely be WP worthy
She IS talented. She has incredible sales (albums, singles). She has tremendously successful tours. She does not write stale love songs about her 100 boyfriends. She has been in the industry and look at how much she has achieved. If you would just stop being delusional, you'd agree with everything I just wrote.

It's just simple logic: people may listen to your music, but that does not mean they care about everything that you do. ADELE is all about the music. People like her for her music.

Thats what makes Adele so much more amazing.

Since 2008, yes. What she has done in the space of 5 years is remarkable. However, Rihanna gives her a good run for her money. Like many say, she is consistent and that is the key to building up a profound legacy.
Don't underestimate Katy either. She may be a little behind the other two at this stage, but her career is in a really strong position at the moment. Her last era solidified her place in the market and she can continue to build on it.

Doesn't change the fact that it's STILL a non-existent achievement. Give it a break and try to be more realistic next time.

Lady Gaga is successful. She has tremendously successful tours. She has incredible album and single sales and is a celebrity with great star power. So is Taylor who doesn't have 100 boyfriends, and doesn't write stale songs. She is much more artistically focused and consistent than Lady Gaga. She's an artist who knows what she's doing. And Gaga is not imo. She doesn't try as hard as Gaga to produce good music and doesn't need as much controversy and gimmicks to be as successful. And I'm not delusional and certainly not everybody who disagrees with you is.

Even without touring, she's still more successful.
But you are still missing the point though. She COULD have all of those achievements if she WANTED to. Just because she doesn't have them doesn't take away from the fact that she could easily have them if she wanted to.
You made the comparison of album sales to tour sales. Album sales aren't something artists have control over. Gaga is not the one who decides how many albums she sells. Most acts don't determine how many tickets they sell either but Adele definitely had that power, especially back in 2011 when there was a massive public demand to see her live.
That was a conscious decision made by her, not the GP. Don't skip over the point.

Yes, YOU, you NEED a break because your obsession with Gaga is just shocking. You perch into every thread that is related to Gaga. I bet you have more posts about Gaga than any ONE of your faves (in your sig).
For the 1000th time, Adele is NOT a popstar and she is DEFINITELY NOT the most successful popstar of this generation. You can keep thinking otherwise if you want to.
Only her stans are interested to know about her as a person. The GP couldn't care less about her. They only want good music, which is what she delivers.
No one except her stans see her as a popstar. Her stans (which are mostly bandwagoners) constantly claim her to be a popstar because it'll be easier to drag an artist which they hate/do not like (which is exaclty what you're doing in here).

We have yet to see a successful tour from her to admit that she has a huge demand from the GP. A lot of people bought her album, yes, but it doesn't mean they want to see her live. (See: Teenage Dream's singles and Teenage Dream's tour).
I'll just wait for her next album, and possibly, her tour (if she does one) to judge.

Yes. Rihanna and Adele can't compete with her overall receipts. Music sales over 100 million with only 3 releases, massive Pop culture impact, mega tours, endorsements, fashion influence, ridiculous perfume sales, etc

Yes, but that doesn't change the fact that this thread is an embarrassing, desperate plea for validation and attention
