Even Adele’s Credit Card Gets Declined Sometimes

Celebrities, they’re just like us. Like Adele, who recently had her card declined at H&M. Honestly, we’ve never related to her more.


At her San Jose, California, concert on Sunday night, the “Hello” singer revealed that her card was declined on a recent shopping trip. “I went to H&M and my card got declined.” The upside? “Nobody knew it was me, but I was mortified.”

As if that wasn’t embarrassing enough, her pet dachshund Louie had a little tiff with another dog. “My dog tried to claw another dog…my trip to H&M was great,” the songstress joked.

After all that trouble, Adele did what we all do in times of distress: she went to Sephora, where her card was thankfully accepted.

Adele, we ~feel~ you.
