Adele Invites Lookalike Fan On Stage For Selfie

  • 30 March 2016

Adele made one superfan’s dream come true on Tuesday evening during her show at Birmingham’s Genting Arena. Emily Bamforth is not only a huge fan of the ‘Hello’ singer, but she’s also a bit of a doppelgänger and once Adele spotted her in the crowd she couldn’t help but invite her on stage for a selfie.

Adele brought Emily on stage and asked her her age (she’s 27 just like Adele) and where she was from before taking a selfie of the pair together. Emily’s fiancé Tom had been trying to get Adele to notice her and had tweeted earlier in the night "@Adele every one thinks my girlfriend is you! She's been asked 10 times now! Only one the 4th row!” **More: [Adele Lays Into Jamie Oliver Over Breastfeeding Comments](http://www.contactmusic.com/adele/news/adele-lays-into-jamie-oliver-over-breastfeeding-comments_5188525)** Speaking to the [Birmingham Mail](http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/whats-on/music-nightlife-news/watch-moment-adele-invites-lookalike-11111002), Tom said: "I know my fiancé is a massive Adele fan (so much so she's going again tonight) and when I saw we were two rows from the front I couldn't not do anything.” "People had been looking at her in the corridors and whispering she looked liked a Adele, so when she stopped signing at one point I politely stood up and raised my hand to ask her a question, which is when she started to talk to us and then invited Emily up on stage for the selfie.” **More: [Adele Reportedly Set For Five Year Break At End Of World Tour](http://www.contactmusic.com/adele/news/adele-five-year-break-from-music_5187768)** Emily was said to have been over the moon to join her idol on stage. The 27-year-old, from Northampton also runs a Youtube channel that gives makeup tutorials on how to look like stars including Adele (of course) and Lana Del Rey.
