Watch Adele Perform in the Pouring Rain in Munich
Talk about setting fire to the rain! Adele’s month-long series of concerts at Munich’s 80,000-capacity outdoor arena, Messe München, was affected by torrential downpour on Wednesday night (Aug. 14).
However, the “Rolling in the Deep” superstar didn’t let the rain deter her from putting on a stellar performance, as seen in viral fan footage in which Adele performs her 30 hit, “Oh My God,” as rain dramatically pours around her.
“If it stops raining when I do ‘Set Fire to the Rain,’ I’m going to be f—ing furious,” Adele joked with fans at one point in the show.
It’s been an exciting sequence of shows for Adele in the German city, revealing last week that she’s engaged to sports agent Rich Paul after three years of dating. The 16-time Grammy winner appeared to read aloud a fan’s sign that said, “Will you marry me?”
“I can’t marry you,” she replied, holding up her left hand to indicate a ring on her finger as the crowd cheered. “‘Cause I’m already getting married.”
The couple first started dating in 2021, with the businessman revealing in a New Yorker profile that he had been “hanging out” with “a major pop star.” They made their first public outing together two months later at game 5 of the NBA Finals in Phoenix.
Adele’s 10-night stand in Munich concludes Aug. 31. See a full recap of the opening night here. The singer’s Weekends With Adele residency at Las Vegas’ Colosseum at Caesars Palace picks back up in October.
