During a performance in Amsterdam on her world tour to promote the smash hit album _25_, British singer-songwriter Adele took a moment to invite two little girls on stage. She then [realized](http://mashable.com/2016/06/02/adele-recognizes-fan-onstage/?utm%5Fsource=feedly&utm%5Fmedium=webfeeds#t4%5FV%5Fa3yiqqw) she’d known one of the girls as a baby, and her reaction is priceless. 

In a video captured from the audience, Adele asks one of the girls where she lives.

“England. In London,” the girl says. 

“Where in London?” says Adele.

“London London,” says the girl.

Adele pauses for a moment. “Oh. My. God…I knew you when you were a baby! I knew her when she was a baby!”

The girl is the daughter of Adele’s cellist who was then playing in the concert.

Adele follows that up with a string of exclamations, “Oh my god! Shut up! No way!”

Apparently being one of the most [successful](http://time.com/money/4126104/adele-album-sales-record-25/) performers of all time doesn’t inure a person to that weird feeling of meeting someone and realizing you’ve known them for years.


## Transcript

[ MUSIC ] Hello, it's she. Adele's long awaited album Twenty- Five Drop, and it instantly made her a world- wide trend. But before the globe braced itself for the British crooner to smash every music record in the game, she was Adele Laurie Blue Adkins. As aspirational singer. Here's 5 things you may not know about Adele. First up, Adele was discovered on MySpace using her top A tour advantage due networker deal with XO Recordings. I studied music from 14 to 18 and part of the course was to learn and how to record yourself. You know, they're most unsoftened. I used to get things from my friend, Lyndon and yeah, he put me on MySpace and.

In 2004 so way before anything was going on and I was [ UNKNOWN ]. Number two Adele does have squad goals that include a certain [ UNKNOWN ] bombshell. She recently told Rolling Stone, I guess I have my own squad. It's not as interesting as some of the other squads that are around right now. But maybe Rihanna can be in my squad! That would be really cool. Oh, God. She's life itself isn't she? I love her. Fun fact # 3, Adele's playlist probably looks a lot like yours, according to a recent Beats 1 interview. I love Lana Del Rey, I love her very, very much, I've never met her though, but I just think she stirs my soul, I love Alabama Shakes.

I love Drake, I love Tobias, I love Chvrches, I like The Maccabees, I love Florence's new record very much, obviously like Queen Bee till the day I die. Coming in at number four Adele use to drunk tweet and now her management makes sure her 140 characters coincide with the singers sober ideas. I'm not a drinker anymore but when Twitter first came out I was like you're drunk tweeting. [ LAUGH ] And nearly put my foot in it a few times. And finally at number five. Adele is halfway to Egot. Winning multiple Grammies and an Oscar for her song, Skyfall. Thank you so much! The singer knows how to rack up awards.

Her latest single, Hello, was the most viewed on VEVO in 24 hours. The most streamed song on Spotify in a day. The most downloaded song in a week Ever. Industry experts project Adele's 25 to be in the running for the highest selling album in a week, of all time. Making those tears of yours, go toward a great cause.
