“I know there was a bit of controversy about me playing the Gabba,” Adele said. “I think they should shut up with their bloody moaning, f*cking hell. Shut up! “I come from f*king London. I’m happy to be in Brisbane.” Adele’s Brisbane City Council broadside came moments after a beetle, a cricket and a cockroach joined her onstage.



““Oh my god, I’m not just saying it because of last time, there’s a beetle on my stage ... just saw a cockroach . run for your life,” she joked. “It’s a sanctuary up here, I’m loving it.” Scheduled to start at 7.30pm, the 28-year-old Grammy and Oscar winner appeared on stage at 7.55am in a sequined plum ball gown.

Her choice of attire was not quite suited to the warm conditions although she only changed for the encore. Instead of putting on something light, she donned a black velvet coat and black pants and a black top.
Adele told the sold-out show that she heard of all the controversy about singing at the Gabba.
