During a recent show as part of her Las Vegas residency, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Adele took a moment to champion Rachel Chinouriri and call her "absolutely amazing".

During a break in the set in which she addressed the crowd, whilst sat next to the piano, Adele discussed going to a show on her own, and revealed exactly which one she had in mind.

"Someone sent me a song... I can't actually remember her name, shit I'm gonna remember her name for next week so I can give her a shout out. There's this new artist, she's British, her name is Rachel... she does indie music. It's absolutely amazing," Adele said of Rachel Chinouriri. "She has a show in LA in March, I'm gonna go on my own, that's what I'm gonna do!"

Chinouriri posted a clip of the moment online, understandably freaking out about being co-signed by Adele, and then later tweeted "No guys life isn't real", whilst reminiscing on a previous encounter with Adele.

Over the weekend, Chinouriri appeared on Sunday Brunch to perform her recent single "Never Need Me". Next week, she kicks off an intimate in-store tour of the UK before heading off to play her first headline shows in the US, following the recent announcement of her debut album, What A Devastating Turn of Events.

What A Devastating Turn Of Events is set for release on 3 May via Parlophone/Atlas Artists, and is available to pre-order now.
