We’re supposed to believe not one single black person has ever bought her CDs.

The petitioners also "demand that Adele donates her money to African-American causes such as #Blacklivesmatter."

Dear Mizz Jones,

A donation has been made in your name to the All Lives Matter Fund.

The All Lives Matter Fund. Money For All Lives.

Like your girl, I can’t understand a word but, wonderful voices.

Not Maria Callas but, wonderful never the less.

She also considers hardcore rap and hip hop music, so yes, she is stupid!

Have you seen the Barberettes? Or Barbarettes? I forget which. They are adorable Korean girls.

“White privilege” does not give you the power, range, and richness of Adeles voice. People are getting crazy.

No doubt she’s crying all the way to the bank.

Tell the critics to f*** off, Adele.

They had her on the muzak loop at work here ... talented lady, but I’ve had more than enough.

I think that for me the thing that bugs me is her music mostly seems so ... oh, dark, baby done me wrong, unhappy kind of stuff. Soulful, but sometimes you don’t wanna sing (or hear) the blues all the time.

Considering the domination of some music genres by people other than ‘white’, where’s the beef?

Had to check it our on youtube. The lady has a set of pipes and isn’t singing out her nose like so many do any more.

>>Why were Millini Vanillini big?

I think you mean "Milli Vanilli".

I forgot, Miley Minnelli... Liza's kid.

>> Why did they get a Grammy when they couldn’t even sing???

They gave it back once they were exposed as frauds.

Then when is Obama giving back his two Grammies?
