Adele did not hold back when an audience member appeared to yell “Pride sucks!” during her Las Vegas residency on Saturday night.
According to video obtained by Sky News, the Grammy-winning singer clapped back: “Did you come to my fucking show and just say that Pride sucks? Are you fucking stupid? Don’t be so fucking ridiculous. If you don’t have anything nice to say, shut up, all right?”
Saturday was June 1, which marked the first day of Pride Month, the annual celebration of the LGBTQ+ community.

“Have you noticed how people are like, forgetting fucking show etiquette at the moment? People just throwing shit on stage, have you seen them?” she said. “I fucking dare you. Dare you to throw something at me and I’ll fucking kill you.”
