Jessica Sager — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 04:23:26 +0000

The 2013 Oscars were business as usual for Adele. And by “business as usual,” we mean “she slayed and acted like it was nothing.” With her flowing strawberry blond hair down instead of in her usual bouffant, the British chanteuse looked looser than ever, and her performance of the Oscar-winning ‘Skyfall’ reflected as much.

Adele has an estranged -- at best -- relationship with her father, in part because of her parents' split and in part because he speaks about her in the press.
