2019 found big changes for Adele in her personal life.

After marrying her longtime partner whom she met in 2011, Adele announced in 2016 that she was a "stay at home mum" to their son.

With her last album coming out in 2015, it seemed true.

But in April 2019 her separation from husband Simon Konecki was confirmed and in September divorce papers were filed. Then came the rumors of an Adele "glow-up."

In October, the rumors were confirmed when a noticeably slimmer Adele was photographed at rapper Drake's birthday party and featured in one of the slideshows posted by photographer Theo Skudra and posted on her own Instagram.


But now the singer looks even slimmer in a pair of photos she posted for the holidays.

Adele posed with a Jim Careyesque Grinch...

...and the Jolly Old Elf himself, Santa Claus.

Plenty of famous friends and famous fans commented on Adele's new look.

Like Teen Wolf, American Horror Story and Arrow alum Colton Haynes...

While most of Adele's fans had praise for her new look with many referring to a post-divorce glow-up...

But the media attention and the debate about Adele's appearance drew criticism on social media.

Actress and body positivity advocate Jameela Jamil commented on Twitter:

"Adele was beautiful before. Is beautiful now. Will be beautiful WHATEVERTHEF**K weight she will be in the future."
"The weight of a global icon trending is a sign there is still work to do in how we value women in 2020. Being thinner doesn't add to her value. She was born 💯"

Others addressed the phrasing of headlines in October and in December where things like "flaunts her weight loss" were used to describe party snaps.










But some people just want a new album.

So far there is a 19, 21 and 25.

Is there secretly a 30 album recorded last year and set to release or will the world have to wait for 33 or 35 or 38 or...?

Threads User's Epic Rant Ripping MAGA Fans Who Now Claim They 'Always Had Doubts' About Trump Has The Internet Applauding

As prominent MAGA minions, like QAnon conspiracy peddler and former Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, have come out against MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, so too are some lesser known individuals.

Whether it's his Iran War, his continuing saga with the Epstein files, his utter failure to keep any of his campaign promises that they banked on helping them, or the abject incompetence of his hand-picked personnel, some members of MAGA are distancing themselves from the cult.

Trump Ripped For Somehow Making His 'Happy Mother's Day' Post All About Himself Without Any Mention Of Melania

President Donald Trump was criticized after he "honored" mothers on Mother's Day by attacking Democrats in a self-absorbed post on Truth Social, never mentioning his wife, First Lady Melania, who is the mother of his youngest son Barron.

Instead of acknowledging her and mothers around the country, Trump gloated about the economy and accused critics of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome," targeting Democrats and Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair he's been trying to push out of his administration.

Zach Galifianakis Expertly Lays Into Comedians Who Refuse To 'Challenge' Trump When He's A Guest On Their Podcasts

Actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis called out comedians who have had President Donald Trump on their podcasts and didn't "challenge" him, noting that they've effectively abdicated their role by not making jokes at Trump's expense or pushing back against things he says.

Galifianakis made that argument during a recent episode of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, where host Conan O'Brien remarked that few, if any, people have challenged a sitting president the way Galifianakis did when he interviewed then-President Barack Obama in 2014 on his satirical series Between Two Ferns.

Sean Duffy Ripped After Encouraging Americans To Take 'Road Trips' As Gas Prices Continue To Soar

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was called out after he encouraged Americans to take "road trips" as gas prices continue to rise as a result of President Donald Trump's war in Iran.

Republicans have faced pressure from constituents nationwide to address the rising cost of living, but Americans are feeling pain at the pump now that the Iran war, which the Trump administration kicked off in late February, has prompted a spike in gas prices.
