Reading Comprehension

1 Adele Laurie Blue Adkins was born on the 5th of May 1988 in Tottenham,
north London, England, to a single English teenage mother named Penny Adkins
and a Welsh father on 5 May 1988. Adele's father Mark Evans split from Adele's
mother when Adele was 3 years old, for which Adele had not forgiven him as of
2012. 5
2
She began singing at age four and asserted that she became obsessed with
voices. Adele has cited the Spice Girls as a major influence in regard to her love
and passion for music, stating that "they made me what I am today." Adele
impersonated the Spice Girls at dinner parties as a young girl. To make her look
like singer Gabrielle, her mother made an eye patch with sequins, which Adele 10
said was embarrassing. At the age of nine, Adele and her mother, a furniture-
maker and adult learning activities organiser, relocated to Brighton. At the age of
11, Adele and her mother moved to Brixton, and then to neighbouring district
West Norwood, in South London. West Norwood is the subject for Adele's first
record, "Hometown Glory", written when she was 16. After moving to South 15
London, she became interested in R&B artists such as Aaliyah, Destiny's
3 Child and Mary J. Blige.

Adele says that one of the most defining moments in her life was when
she watched Pink perform at Brixton Academy. "It was
the Missundaztood record. I was about 13 or 14. I had never heard, someone 20
4 singing like that live. I remember feeling like I was in a wind tunnel, her voice
just hit me. It was incredible."

Adele graduated from the BRIT School for Performing Arts &
Technology in Croydon in May 2006, where she was a classmate of Leona
Lewis and Jessie J. Adele credits the school with nurturing her talent. In school, 25
she was more interested in going into A&R (Artiste and Repertoire) and hoped to
5 launch other people's careers. Although she moved away from North London
aged nine, Adele remains an ardent fan of her hometown Premier
League football club Tottenham Hotspur.

Today, Adele is an English singer-songwriter and musician. Adele was 30

offered a recording contract from XL Recordings after a friend posted her demo
on MySpace in 2006. The next year she received the Brit Awards "Critics'
Choice" award and won the BBC Sound of 2008. Her debut album, 19, was
released in 2008 to much commercial and critical success. The album is certified
6 four times platinum in the UK, and double platinum in the US. Her career in the 35
US was boosted by a Saturday Night Live appearance in late 2008. At the 2009
Grammy Awards, Adele received the awards for Best New Artist and Best
Female Pop Vocal Performance.

Adele released her second album, 21, in early 2011. The album was well
received critically and surpassed the success of her debut. 21 helped Adele earn 40
six Grammy Awards in 2012 including Album of the Year, equalling the record
for most Grammy Awards won by a female artist in one night. The album has
7 also helped her receive numerous other awards, including two Brit Awards and
 three American Music Awards. The album has been certified 16 times platinum
in the UK; in the US the album has held the top position longer than any other
album since 1985. 45

The success of 21 earned Adele numerous mentions in the Guiness Book Of

World Records. She is the first artist to sell more than 3 million copies of an
album in a year in the UK. With her two albums and the first two singles
from 21, "Rolling in the Deep" and "Someone Like You", Adele became the first 50
living artist to achieve the feat of two top five hits in both the UK Official
8 Singles Chart and the Official Albums Chart simultaneously since the Beatles in
1964. With her third release from the album, "Set Fire to the Rain", becoming
her third number one single in the US, Adele became the first artist in history to
lead the Billboard 200 concurrently with three Billboard Hot 100 number ones.
55
Adele is also the first female artist to have three singles in the top 10 of
the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, and the first female artist to have two
albums in the top five of the Billboard 200 and two singles in the top five of
the Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously. 21 is the longest running number one
album by a female solo artist on the UK Albums Chart and is the longest running
number one album by a female in Billboard history. In 2011, Billboard named
Adele artist of the year. In 2012, Adele was listed at number five on VH1s 100
Greatest Women In Music, and American magazine Time named Adele one of
the most influential people in the world.
