Adele’s “Hello”, her first new single in years, debuted to positive reviews from fans and music critics alike last week.

“After doing my music video, I’m sure I’ll get a few flak for this, but I actually would like to act after working with Xavier Dolan who is truly, truly fantastic and his films are incredible”, she tells KISS FM.
The video’s director explains why Adele used a flip phone in her latest music video for “Hello”.
The hype got so intense the video was clocking up a million views an hour (it’s now had more than 65 million views).
So, what’s with the flip phone? What are your thoughts on the Adele flip phone news? It all stems from the video’s director, Xavier Dolan. Adele’s new video shows her fixing tea while reminiscing about her ex while singing, “So hello from the other side.

She continued: “He makes me be a d******d, and he makes me feel young and there’s nothing more grounding than a kid kicking off and refusing to do what you’re asking of them”.
Flip phones or not, the video is already breaking records after going live less than a full week after it’s release!
