Adele Kicked Off Her Tour By Helping a Fan Propose

Yesterday, Adele kicked off her world tour in Belfast, Ireland—and following leap year tradition, when women are known to propose, the British singer called out to her audience for any girls wanting to propose.

Interacting with her crowd in a way only Adele does, she invited fans on stage—first, singing happy birthday to one girl (um, best birthday ever!)—before a second fan took the stage to propose to her boyfriend, Neil. Apparently, she’d tried proposing to him already, to which he’d said, “maybe in a little while.” But Adele can be pretty convincing. Not taking no for an answer, she had the crowd join her in a chant urging Neil to say yes.

You can watch the proposal at the 2:20 mark:

As you probably guessed, the boyfriend did say yes (we think?)—and naturally, Adele invited herself to the wedding.
