A mysterious TV commercial that features Adele aired on Australian and Kiwi networks and it has sent fans into a frenzy. Check it out.
The 30-second ad, which aired during Australian prime time shows The Block and The X Factor, was eye-catching in its simplicity: a close-up of Adele’s closed eyes, finally opening as the opening line of her 2015 comeback hit Hello rings out.
And that was it. No info, no announcement, nothing. Given Adele’s most recent album, 25, was released a year ago and has been classified 8 times platinum on Australia’s charts, many fans took to social media to speculate that this new ad could be an announcement (or pre-announcement?) for an Australian tour.
Adele has just three dates left on her Adele Live 2016 tour, finishing in Phoenix, Arizona on November 21. After the 107-date tour is done, her calendar is wide open. Could a clutch of Aussie and New Zealand (the ad aired there too) dates be booked for the New Year? Many fans are hoping ...

Either Adele is coming to Australia to perform, or she's going to be the voice of the new season of Big Brother.

If Adele is making her way down to Australia, don’t you think she should stop over in the Philippines? Wouldn’t that be awesome?!
