6月28日，阿黛爾在倫敦溫布利球場舉辦了演唱會，到場觀眾多達98000人，打破了溫布利球場的觀眾人數紀錄。然而演出結束后，阿黛爾發表了一封長信，表示巡演并不適合自己，可能再也不會巡演了，所以把最后一場秀放在家鄉倫敦。她在信中寫道：

"Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn't suit me particularly well...I might never see you again at a live show. Who knows? But I will remember this for the rest of my life."
“巡演是很特別的事情，它不太適合我……我可能再也不會在演唱會現場看到你們了。誰知道呢？但是我永遠都會記住這一切。”

對于這番言論，阿黛爾的歌迷們可能并不意外。這已經不是她第一次表達自己對巡演模式的“抵觸”。今年3月，在新西蘭奧克蘭舉辦演唱會時，阿黛爾就在現場表示，這很可能是她的“最后一次”巡演。

從《21》到《25》，阿黛爾用歌喉征服了無數粉絲。不再巡演意味著能聽她現場的機會將越來越少，不少歌迷們對此表示遺憾，有網友稱：“太難過了，還沒來得及去看一次她的現場”。不過，相信多數人都能理解她的決定，因為阿黛爾在信中說：

"I'm a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things. Plus, I'm dramatic and have a terrible history of touring. Until now that is!"
“我真的是一個很戀家的人，生活中的瑣事讓我感到很幸福。而且，我也很情緒化，巡演時也有過糟糕的經歷。直到現在，還是這樣！”

2011年，阿黛爾與男友西蒙?考內奇相戀；2012年，他們迎來了愛情的結晶；2017年初，阿黛爾在演唱會上宣布兩人已經結婚。阿黛爾如今已從那個羞澀的胖女孩蛻變為成熟自信、美麗直爽的母親和妻子，她用自己的人生經歷鼓勵了無數“棉花糖女孩”。而現在，她只希望專心做音樂、開心地生活。她說：

"I will always write music and I will always put it out. And I hope that you're always here."
“我會一直做音樂，也會都發出來。我也希望你們一直支持我。”

也許阿黛爾未來真的會告別巡演舞臺，但是喜歡阿黛爾的歌迷不會忘記，那個歌喉動人的舞臺王者，那個在訪談或演唱會上幽默自嘲、放聲大笑，甚至夾雜幾句臟話的豪爽大姐大。

下面一起來回顧一下阿黛爾的20句霸氣經典語錄吧。

1. "Be brave and fearless to know that even if you do make a wrong decision, you're making it for a good reason."
“你要勇敢地告訴自己：即使我做了一個錯誤的決定，也是有理由的。”

2. “I don't date celebrities. I ain't f-----g Taylor Swift.”

4. "If a man whistles at you, do not respond. You are a lady, not a dog."
“如果男人對你吹口哨，別理他。你是女人，不是一條狗。”

5. “When I was eight, I wanted to be 12. When I turned 12, I just wanted to be 18. Then after that I stopped wanting to be older. Now I'm ticking the 16-24 boxes just to see if I can blag it.”
“我8歲時，希望自己12歲。我12歲時，希望自己18歲。但那之后，我不想再長大。如今，我只會在16-24歲的方格里打勾，只想看看是否能蒙騙過關。”

“人們對我外表的關注真的讓我很意外。我的衣服尺碼始終都在14到16之間，我不在乎著裝……”

8. “I flung the middle finger. That was for the suits at the Brit Awards, not my fans. I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but the suits offended me.”
“我豎中指是因為全英音樂獎頒獎禮上的禮服，而不是對著我的歌迷。如果因此冒犯到任何人，我感到非常抱歉，但是那些服裝真的惹到我了。”

9. “The only person I'm afraid of is myself.”
“我唯一懼怕的人就是自己。”

10. "Sometimes you have to allow yourself to be sad, in order to move forward."
“有時，為了讓自己釋懷，你要先允許自己難過。”

11. "It sounds obvious, but I think you only learn to love again when you fall in love again."

13. " I love hearing my audience breathe."
“我喜歡聽到歌迷們的呼吸聲。”

14. "I don't want to go on a diet, I don't want to eat a Caesar salad with no dressing, why would I do that? I ain't got time for this, just be happy and don't be stupid. If I've got a boyfriend and he loves my body then I'm not worried."
“我不想節食，我不想吃沒有調味的凱撒沙拉，我為什么要這么做？我不想在這上面花時間，做人要開心不要犯傻。如果我已經有男友了，而且他也喜歡我的身材，那么我還有什么可擔心的呢？”

15. "I have insecurities of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me."

“很多人都表現出很勇敢的樣子，絕不讓自己掉一滴淚。有時候，當你知道其他人感覺和你一樣糟糕，或是和你遭遇了一樣的事情時，你會感覺更好受些。”

18. "There's only one of you, so why would you want to look like anyone else? "
“每個人都是獨一無二的，為什么想要去成為別人呢?”
