Pop star Adele recently acknowledged her body transformation in the opening monologue on Saturday Night Live. She jokingly mentioned that travel restrictions have a lot to do with a new look, as she was only allowed to carry “half her weight”. The international sensation shed light on why she is the host for the year instead of being a musical guest while also speaking about the album she has been working on currently.

Adele’s opening monologue on Saturday Night Live

International pop star Adele hosted Saturday Night Live on October 24, 2020, and instantly grabbed attention through her entertaining opening monologue. In a part of the monologue, she made a joke about her body transformation which had previously left her fans and critics stunned. She said that she had to travel light due to the COVID restrictions and travel bans. Hence, she could only bring half of herself and this was the half that she chose. She also received a round of applause for her impressive transformation which could only be achieved through immense hard work and dedication.

Adele also shed light on the memories she has created on the Saturday Night Live stage previously. She said that she genuinely loves this show which also broke her career 12 years back, in 2008. She remembered how she was a musical guest on the show while Sarah Palin, with Ms Tina Fey, made a major appearance, attracting a humungous crowd. Adele further added that she is not a musical guest this year because she is currently working on her upcoming album. She is scared to do both and hence decided to see where this leads. Have a look at Adele’s monologue here.

A bunch of frontline workers formed the audience this year, as the event aimed at honouring their service towards the world. Adele also put through a ‘thank you’ note for these workers for their sheer hard work in such difficult times. She said that she wants to genuinely and sincerely thank the frontline workers for their efforts in keeping people safe and healthy.
