    Adele would "cry" if she met Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson

    The 'Easy on Me' hitmaker admitted the 'Jungle Cruise' actor is the one person who she'd be starstruck to meet and she "nearly fell off" her chair when she received a bouquet of flowers from him as an apology for not being able to be in the audience for her recent 'One Night Only' TV special


    She admitted: “Someone I’ve never met, that I think I would actually cry, is The Rock. I was the biggest wrestling fan when I was younger! He sent me flowers because he and his wife couldn’t make it to my show and literally I nearly fell off me chair!”

    But Adele was quick to stress she doesn't have a crush on the 'Moana' star.

    She added: "He always paints his little girl's nails and stuff like that, doesn't he? He's so cute. I wish he was my dad...

    "Oh yeah, it's not like I - I haven't got a crush on him or anything. It's just, he's amazing. He's just incredible, I want him to be my mate. I want him to be my friend."

    While the 33-year-old star is a big fan of the former WWE star, one thing she doesn't enjoy is 'Real Housewives' and she fears her "brain will die" if she starts dedicating time to the Bravo franchise.

    Speaking during a 'Power of Make-Up' video on NikkieTutorials' YouTube channel, she explained: “I know a lot of people love it, but I can’t.

    “My brain will die, I can’t…I don’t know who any of them are, so I don’t feel like I can start from the beginning when it’s been on for so long.

    “I’m not going to lie, it doesn’t work for me."

    However, Adele - who has nine-year-old son Angelo with ex-husband Simon Konecki and is now dating sports agent Rich Paul - admitted she had once tried to watch 'Real Housewives of New Jersey'.

    She added: “One time I did watch one episode of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' when they were all like literally killing each other, but it was too much, I was like I can’t, I can’t watch.

    "I'd rather watch a wildlife programme.”
