Adele has spoken out in support of Taylor Swift, after the pop star received hate from NFL fans for attending football games to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce.
Adele, 35, told those who criticized Taylor, 34, to “get on with it” and declared that the singer made the games “more enjoyable to watch.”
Taylor has been dating Kansas City Chiefs star Travis, 34, since last September, and quickly became a pop culture phenomenon.

The English singer-songwriter gushed about Taylor’s talent in October 2022, at Happy Hour With Adele, a fan event celebrating the release of her music video for I Drink Wine.
When asked if she had listened to Taylor’s latest album, Midnights, Adele admitted she had not because she had been busy rehearsing 12 hours every day.
But he later praised the American singer as “one of the best songwriters of our generation” and showed his support for Taylor’s record-breaking songs.
Adele confessed that she had yet to listen to Taylor’s tenth studio album, saying, “I haven’t, but the only reason is because I’ve been rehearsing for like 12 hours a day.” I’m sick and tired of everything musical.
