Adele Regrets Hanging out With Blur/Gorillaz Frontman Damon Albarn
“He said I was insecure, when I’m the least-insecure person I know.”
In September, Blur/Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn shared that he was working with Adele on her upcoming album 25. He claims that she was “very insecure” and that her work was “middle of the road,” and he believed that his work would not appear on the final version of the album. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the UK songstress discusses her time hanging out with Albarn: “It ended up being one of those ‘don’t meet your idol’ moments,” she said. “And the saddest thing was that I was such a big Blur fan growing up. But it was sad, and I regret hanging out with him.” Check out several highlights from the interview below.
