Adele Was Seen “Getting Cozy” With LeBron James’ Agent Rich Paul At The NBA Playoffs
Adele and Drake may have been friends before, but that’s probably because he’s never had reason to be jealous of her — Until now. According to TMZ, Adele was seen at game 5 of the NBA playoffs in Phoenix, Arizona and she was “getting cozy” with Rich Paul, LeBron James’ agent. Drake had to go a much more circuitous route to get close to LeBron by dating LeBron’s son’s teammate’s mom while Adele is just yukking it up with Rich, a “major NBA power broker.” Drake is probably holed up in the studio right now recording an Adele diss track as we speak.
Rich may be capital “R” Rich, but Adele is Very Rich. So it must be love, or, at the very least, Very Good court-side seats. TMZ reports:
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst dropped the bombshell on his ‘Lowe Post’ podcast Saturday night … shortly after the Bucks beat the Suns for Game 5 of the NBA Finals. It was a star-studded game in the stands — and featured none other than Adele, sitting next to LeBron’s agent, Rich Paul … a dude who’s usually behind the scenes, but is a major NBA power broker.
Windhorst was describing the atmosphere and the famous faces in the crowd — and when he got to LeBron and Rich, he didn’t even pretend to play coy with who he says Adele is as it relates to Rich. By that, we mean he straight-up referred to her as his full-blown girlfriend.
Adele was photographed getting cozy next to Rich during the game — but there were no obvious signs of PDA to indicate a relationship. In fact, before Windhorst said this … we’d argue no one even thought anything of the seating arrangement. But, this is … WOW!
Here’s Adele screaming MOVE YOUR BLOOMIN’ ARSE and letting us know we were right to be Skeptacal about her rumored romance with Skepta even though the two were spotted shopping together at Cabazon Outlets just last week.

Nothing says “cozy” quite like a stadium filled with thousands of screaming fans except maybe an empty stadium with a news-chopper flying overhead. Maybe Adele and Rich can just double date with Drake and Johanna Leia next time so we can avoid having to hear Drake rap about how Adele’s feet stink or something similarly juvenile.
