Anticipating that reaction, Adele did not shy away from joking about her transformation during her appearance on the show.
Check out her look here!
She looks incredible, right?
Adele joked, "I know I look really, really different since you last saw me."
"But actually, because of all the Covid restrictions...I had to travel light and I could only bring half of me. And this is the half I chose," she quipped.
The star hosted the show, but was not the musical guest, which surprised some fans who were eager to hear more from the singer.
During the show, Adele explained her unexpected role, and also gave an update on the status of her next album: "My album’s not finished, and I’m also too scared to be both. I’d rather put on some wigs… have a glass of wine or six and just see what happens."
However, that does not mean that her appearance was completely song-free.
During a sketch where Adele played the role of a contestant on The Bachelor, she frequently broke out in song, belting some of her most famous hits, including "Hello" and "Someone Like You."
