AceShowbiz - Adele almost fell off stage during her first show in Brisbane, Australia on Friday, March 4. The Grammy-winning singer was performing "Hello" while trying to run up a set of stairs in her floor-length gown featuring a massive train. She almost took a tumble, causing her to hit a "dodgy note."
"I don't know if you saw, but after you did your marvelous sing along to the 'Hello' chorus, I nearly tripped up those stairs did you see me, Oh My God!" Adele told the crowd, "I've never worn a dress like this, I'm basically celebrating 'Beauty and the Beast' coming out... but I forgot to lift it up and tried to run up and nearly fell over."
"I'm sure you heard my dodgy note afterwards, I f*****g s**t myself," she joked before getting laughs from the audience.
Adele also joked that she was not cut out for the Australian heat. She took a moment to wipe off the sweat from her face and said, "I'm sure you're not sweating because you're used to it. You also haven't got your face on a 40 foot high screen in front of this many people."
The "Someone Like You" singer said she could not have air conditioning in her dressing room, and her vocal chords got dried. "So I'm basically sweating like a pig all day long," she added.
Adele is set to perform another show in Brisbane on Sunday, March 5 before heading to Sydney for concerts on March 10 and 11.
