Adele, 36, stunned her fans in a simple but elegant black dress as she sang her setlist of hits.

As she was sitting by the piano, she decided to show more support for the LGBTQ+ community.

However, as she celebrated Pride Month, the Someone Like You hitmaker was heckled by a seemingly bigoted unidentified fan.

This left her utterly enraged as she hit back at the concert attendee for their views.

In footage of the incident, the star was visibly angry as she exclaimed: "Did you come to my f****** show and say that Pride sucks?

"Are you f****** stupid? Don’t be so f****** ridiculous. If you have nothing nice to say, shut up."

She added: "All right?'

Adele has been a long-standing supporter of the LGBTQ+ community and has shown it publicly on various occasions.

Last year, she celebrated Pride Month by donning a rainbow flag train on a stunning black dress and rainbow pride-themed confetti at her residency.

In 2022, she also borrowed one couple's pride flag and then serenaded them at her 65,000 capacity gig at London's Hyde Park.

She draped herself with the flag in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Pride In London at the popular BST Festival.

Back in 2016, the Rolling In The Deep star paid tribute to the Pulse nightclub attack in Orlando, Florida where 49 people lost their lives.

Speaking at another show at that time, she exclaimed: "I would like to start tonight by dedicating this entire show to everybody in Orlando and at Pulse nightclub last night…

"The LGBTQ community, they’re like my soul mates since I was really young, so I’m very moved by it."

She later confirmed that her famous track 'I Set Fire To The Rain' is a "gay anthem".
