Adele: I’m 100 percent for Clinton

Pop singer Adele on Tuesday praised Hillary Clinton and urged her fans not to vote for Donald Trump during a concert with the Democratic presidential nominee in the audience.

“Don’t vote for him,” Adele said during a Miami concert, according to multiple reports. “I can’t vote, but I am 100 percent for Hillary Clinton. I love her; she’s amazing.”

Clinton has lauded Adele in the past, saying in a March interview that the singer was her “go-to voice.”

“I just have a huge admiration for her skills, her ability, and her personality,” Clinton said.

Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, contrasted the way people reacted to Clinton attending the Adele concert with people’s responses to Trump, the Republican nominee, attending his hotel opening.

“Respectfully, Hillary Clinton has time to go to an Adele concert and everybody else thinks that’s really cool,” Conway said Wednesday on the NBC’s “Today.”
 
“Donald Trump stops off to unveil an incredible, stunning piece of architecture and new hotel, first-class hotel and everybody’s hair is on fire.”
