Adele may be on a musical hiatus as she adapts to life as a mother, but that hasn’t stopped the performance requests from flowing in.
For, after much ado about whether the Londoner would take to the stage at the Golden Globes or the Oscars this year, it has been confirmed that the 24 year old will perform at the latter on February 24th.
Details after the jump…
Crowing almost two years at the top, the singer will perform ‘Skyfall’ at the 85th Annual Academy Awards in honor of the blockbuster James Bond movie of the same name. The song, which hit top ten on many a global singles tally last Fall, is nominated in the Best Original Song category – and is the first “Bond song” to do so since 1981.
Speaking on both her performance and nomination, she said:
“It’s an honour to be nominated and terrifyingly wonderful to be singing in front of people who have captured my imagination over and over again. It’s something I’ve never experienced and probably only ever will once!”

With the Grammy’s and Super Bowl looming too, next month is shaping up to be a great one for music fans. Needless to say, we can’t wait to see Adele shut it down!
Pending then, listen to ‘Skyfall’ below…
Great news! Haven’t seen her perform in a long bit!
Beyonce is a fraud, fake, who steals from others to further her own career.
SHES BEEN LIEING SINCE THE BEGINNING SHE DESERVES ALL HATE SHE GETS
I’m confused. I was talking about adele. Why are you bringing up Bey to me?
🙁 Bey was being a c***..
She looks great in that pic. Styled to perfection! Get it girl!
She gave real birth…no like Beywance…giving fake baboon baby from an A** husband…
🙁
…And, no doubt, ‘QUEEN SLAYDELE’ will sing live unlike beyFRAUDULENTce’!!!
Kiiiiiii. 😉

same s*** different day…can’t you let that s*** rest…it’s not that serious.ugh.
What? If you have a problem, don’t address me?
GOODBYE.
@commander im not sure but the updated reports says THE BAND didnf play live but SHE DID SING LIVE. The cornel said this. I think the b**** that sd she didnt sing was tryna get publicity bcus NO ONE asked her and she just up and said that. But look it up and pls sont attack me. Im just sayn the latest thats been reported.
Bey should be boycott… K-bye
Aretha is a hater. “Got 2 be real” is about to get real in here!
She didn’t show up at Whitney’s funeral, something nasty is up with this lady. She’s worried Queen Bey will top her Grammy record and we all know it’s bound to happen.
what did she say? i heard she said Bey did great…
She didnt even say anything bad stop exaggerating.
Thats what i thouhgt. They said she said she did well.. The queen up there just bn messy i c
She hates Bey…everyone hates Bey- the scammer !!!!
🙁
and she’s going to win!!! she look so gorgeous in that pic above…her cheekbone and eyes are to die for!! can’t wait to see her perform.
Its photoshopped DOWN thats y!
Just like Cuntyawnce ….National Anthem ..fake fake fake.
🙁
I do like Adele .. She’s so talented
BUT she’s probably the most overrated artist of all time
What did she say? I heard she said Bey did good.
SHE IS WHITE AND SINGS WITH ONE TONE IN ALL HER SONGS!!! SHE IS VERY OVERRATED AS HELL AND NOT PRETTY EITHER!!
I like Adele, but like the person above me said…she is sooooooooooo overrated. I prefer emeli sande because her voice is more colorful.
LOL i wouldnt dare call ADELE overrated. that’s blasphemy. her songwriting ability alone is sensational. However, I love Emeli Sande as well. just saw her in concert a couple weeks ago in ATL…..flawless!
To me, ADELE, EMELI SANDE, and FLORENCE WELCH can do no wrong whatsoever. ADELE is the only one i havent seen live…and that’s because of her throat issue.
Sad that EMELI didnt get not ONE GRAMMY nom. now that’s blasphemy!
YAY YAY YAY. a LIVE singer.
And you are Rihanna stan.
hahahah right? lol
Wow… My best friend has just announced her wedding with a handsome millionaire shortly after they met on~~~ diàmondkissing.Ćoм~~~ 6 months ago. This is a site where you can meet rich successful men and classy gorgeous women such as CEOs, athletes, doctors, lawyers, models, celebrities, etc….Maybe you can take a try
Stfu h**
I LOVE YOUR CRAZY ASS!!! LOL!!! YOU BE READING THESE H*** CHILE
lol 😉 love you too sweetie
Oh, she’s performing “Skyfall”. I thought she was performing something new. I like Adele but the b**** is overexposed.
Of course the haters would say she’s over exposed…24+ million albums sold with “21”….Is that y’all’s only argument, that she’s over exposed?????
She can retire today and still live with records that are unlikely to be broken.
Does anyone really care? Ija
NOPE NOT ME AND OVERRATED AS F***!! MARSHA AMBROSA WILL OUTSING THIS B**** BUT SHE CANT GET PLATINUM STATUS!! F*** FAT PALE UGLY ADELE
Thats because Adele is white. If she was black then she would be struggling to sell too. TBH I dont even think she will ever be able to do what she did with “21” ever again.
That username is blasphemous though girl. Rihanna and Whitney used in the same line?
Sam,
I have to give you MAJOR props for not falling *yet* for the so-called controversy.
Seeing Perez Hilton and the Trenidad blogger getting their life out of this makes me sick to my stomach.
And Haterate Franklin is doing the most with it too.
People wish upon a star Beyonce would have a mishap, they wish for their liiiife she would fail at something.
Until she turns white, or ugly, or into a crackhead, or divorced, we’ll never see the end of this hate. Never. i wish she would just quit the business.
As for Adele, well, she stuck in LA since the golden globes and she has the Oscar on lock, so it only makes perfect sense she’s performing.
ARETHA IS A LEGEND AND ICON BEYONCE WILL NEVER!!!
not a adele fan but i bet she wont lipsync HER performance and then try to do damage control AFTER being exposed as a FRAUD!
p.s. adele didnt fake a pregnancy either! even if 21 had flopped she wouldnt of been so desperate for attention to fake being pregnant! i hope beysafraud’s fake pregnancy gets exposed on the mainstream blogs this year!
The RUMOR is tired! It hasnt been exposed cos its b*******
her name should be SLAYDELE seriously!! my girl stays slaying everyone from her couch! haha! i hope she wins!!!
Argggggg, this p** annoys The F*** outta me. I can’t take you seriously if you bought 21.
And what does this p** call her fans? Elephants maybe? I’m surprised she hasn’t eaten her piglet yet.
I can’t
No need to hate because 21 trounced Born This Way in album sales. It happens, and Gaga still managed to survive, and I think ARTPOP will do fine even if 21 continues to sell well into 2013. I like Gaga, and would rather she succeed in spite of having stiff competition instead of slaying just because there’s no one else out at the time.
-_- Really? The fat jokes are getting old.
ADELE IS A REAL ARTIST… SHE’D NEVER LIP SYNC N TRY TO FOOL THE PUBLIC. SMH
The life I have gotten from your username though 😀
tell them the truth…
why do you always have to hate on rihanna?
The queen is gonna be snatching some wigs come february. When will your fave?…never, cause R**** sounds like some booty
LET’S HOPE THE OSCARS DONT PULL A FAST ONE, THEY GOT JANET JACKSON TO SING HER NOMINATED “AGAIN” BUT DIDNT WIN!
HOWEVER, WHITNEY AND MARIAH PERFORMED AND THE SONG WON (WHEN YOU BELIEVE)
Itll be nice to see a live performance this February
Superbowl!
I said live, ho
F****** SLAYAGE!!
yessssssss!!! she slays as usual!
Leave the queen bey alone. Y’all know she didn’t lip sync, she sang live over a pre record you can clearly see the veins in her neck plus if you listen to the raw video footage you can hear both her live vocals and the back track! The marine woman is also back paddling on her claims too. The band didn’t play live but bey did sing LIVE embiciles (the basic r**** stans who are reveling in this rumour) yes I stopped stanning for the w**** after the stay cover had fistopher on it!
Good for her!
Why cant people just praise Adele without trying to shade Beyonce? This is an Adele post not Beyonce. You are too bothered about Beyonce just give Adele a compliment on her own post and leave it at that!
Pot. Kettle. Black
I’m glad,I’m happy and I love how every fickle bandwagon fan likes to bring up Adele to hate on Beyonce unless she is your fav she is out-selling everybody so remember that because if she was not as successful alot of you would not bring her up and would have not like her.Love her from since Chasing Pavements.
B**** SHUT UP YOU MAD YOUR FAV IS GETTING DRAGGED LIKE NO OTHER ADELE IS A TRUE HONEST TALENT SHE DONT GOTTA TAKE HER CLOTHES OFF & LIP SING LIKE A DRAGQUEEN AS YOUR FRAUD ASS FAV DOES HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@beyoncegotdragged Please I am an Adele fan and dont feel the need to use Adele against Beyonce so people like you need to stop jumping on her c*** because you are clearly more bothered about Beyonce than her! Not here for phonys. I love Beyonce too, got mad respect for her and so does my fave even if she did lip sync doesnt take away from her talent.
Because no BeYAWNce stan ever shades anyone to build of BIONCI b**** f****** admit yourself stat
This girl is talented but she has got to be the most overrated artist of all time! And I dont usually use the race card but if she was black she would not be this big! But she is white with the voice of black woman which makes people fascinated by her. Yeah I said it! I prefer Amy Winehouses music all day!
B**** y r u using my account!
If she were black, she would not write with such artistry. Sorry but black women are not good songwriters. Sade is the only one and that is cos she is mixed and acts white.
Jill scott, melanie Fiona etc cannot write an indepth song to save their lives.
B**** plz! Indepth songs? have you listened to Jill Scott and Erykah Badu? just becuase this Big B**** is white you dumb m************ are obsessed with her one toned voice ass!
Sybil take your ignorance and shove it strait up your big ass.
Yay Adele keep rising! But the Navy are pathetic. Stop pretending u r excited and rooting for Adele just so you can downgrade Beyonce. Tricks are for kids.
Silly rabbits
lol
Can someone let me know if this is the first live performance of Skyfall?
thanks 😀
Beyonce———————–> Janet pt2 🙂
Beyonce lied to America…by CNN
So Adele overrated because of her music okay y’all acting like she doesn’t deserve her success atleast she’s has people focused on her career mostly music than her personal life she’s really the only artist today that’s successful because of her music alone just leave her alone and let her be successful she deserves everything she gets
IZ (QUEEN ADELE) is my type of commenter. We keep it 100 all the time.
Okay, I’m a tad tired of the brohaha over Adele! I like her but enough is enough!
Good for her though!
overrated cuz white ans sing soul
I’m actually pretty excited about this performance. Though she won’t move her body a bit, her voice will be tip top. This is the only woman who can move more units than Princess Swift. But soon that smoking will catch up and her days as Adele will turn to Won’tSell and Slaylor will be number 1. For now I will enjoy her.
Cute Layne Bryant outfit too!
Ok ok ok I have to say several things:
– Congrats Adele. Nobody did it this big since the new century started. To be on Whitney´s Mariah´s Celine´s etc level of success she would have to do this with several albums, not just one. But damn this is the nearest thing I´ve seen since the 90´s (I´m talking about success). Pure slayage
– Ok b******, both Rihanna and Beyonce fans are pathetic (or some of them). I was the FIRST one saying it seemed to me Beyonce lipped in the first post TGJ made about her performance. I didn´t see any of you say anything like that. Then the day after it is confirmed and you all try to make it seem like Beyonce did the worst thing in the world. Rihanna fans have no room to talk about anybody: her numbers are average and she can´t sing, dance or songwrite. Sghe is a pathetic product
– Here for Beyonce fans: you were doing the most the other day saying she never lips, she is the best blah blah blah and you needed to be lectured, so I did it. Beyonce is 10 times more talented than Ritry. So like I always say I don´t bash Beyonce or something. It´s just that I want to put things in their place. Beyonce lips A LOT, she has always done it from the start. And I´m not bashing her, I´m just saying. No Celine or Mariah fan would say their faves never lip. We know they do, it´s ok. But saying Beyonce never lips and she is the best vocalist ever??? B****** you will be lectured. Just that, accept she is not greatness. And btw her numbers are also pretty average.
– Conclusions: both Beyonce and Rihanna stans on TGJ (most of them) are delusional and pathetic. Oh and yeah Whitney Houston is the best LIVE singer in history who even started to destroy her voice (even before drugs) cos of always touring live singing those impossible songs of hers. #legendary And yes she lipped the Anthem once, not that anybody caes after being left slayed for life (she also sang it live at the Welcome Home Heroes special so…)
I hope she delivers an amazing live performance, unlike that fraud Dreamgirl wannabe-actress who performed with Hugh Jackman lipsynching!
It will be great to see Adele perform Skyfall at the Oscars! It’s also good to hear that the song is being nominated for Best Original Song. I’ll be at work at DISH when it’s on so I’ll be recording it. My roommates and I will be able to record up to six programs on our DISH Hopper. This way no one will have to argue about what to watch.
