Adele – Splurges On Books To Create The Perfect Zoom Meeting Background
Adele is a meticulous planner: she knows what she wants and goes out and gets it, or more likely, splurges on it.
When it comes to that eye-catching bookcase backdrop that is gaining in popularity in Zoom meetings, Adele took matters into her own hands and visited an esteemed London bookshop, announcing: “I want a library”.
Without looking at the details of the book or considering its genre, the bestselling musician proceeded to throw dozens of books into her cart.
The Daily Mail source, who was in the bookshop when Adele breezed in, said: “She came into the Chelsea branch of Daunt Books with a friend.

“All the staff were thrilled when she walked in, wearing sunglasses and looking like a superstar. She went about pulling books off the shelves without even looking at the spines or reading the blurbs, and piling them up by the till.”
“I said, ‘You’re buying a lot of books’, and she replied, “Yeah, I want a library.” The total bill was around £1,000.”\
Adele – Video Calls
The pandemic has offered fans a glimpse into the rooms of celebrities through online video calls. There’s even a comedic Twitter account that analyzes celebrity bookcases titled Bookcase Credibility, which has gained over 110,000 followers so far.
Pictures of Adele’s bookcase show a random mixture of books, including “London Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich”.

She also isn’t the first celebrity to get the urge to buy books for the cause of improving their background. Ashley Tisdale, more popularly known for her role as Sharpay Evans in “High School Musical”, was recently criticized last week after she admitted to buying 400 books to fill her shelves ahead of a photoshoot at her California home.
During a recent Vogue interview, the “Easy on Me” singer was asked about her book collection. Indicating to the titles behind her, which included “The Mosaics of Rome and Japanese Prints”, she said, “There are some good ones up there” as the camera panned the shelves.
When the interviewer asked: “Can you learn a lot about a person by the books they keep?”
Adele replied: “Well I would say that, but I don’t know many people that have real books in their house any more. They seem to have Kindle or they just don’t read at all or on their phone.”
