You’ve got to be kidding me
Now… apparently Adele’s song chasing pavements is too gay to play. It is a bit gay, but not that kind of gay.
The record - which has proved a huge success in Adele’s native UK - has been dubbed a gay anthem by Americans, who think the title is referring to gay men who cruise around looking for sex.
Adele has now blamed the reference for damaging her chances of making it big Stateside.
Yes, that must be the reason.
She said: “Some weirdo on the internet wrote that Chasing Pavements was about being gay, which isn’t true at all.
Like it matters! Do you really want freaks who care whether it does, buying your record… apparently you do.
“Because of that some radio stations in the States wouldn’t play it. The guy wrote it on the Urban Dictionary website, which I’ve used for years and ‘chasing pavements’ was never on there as a slang term before.”
You’re like so street. YAWN. One has to wonder if this is true or just one of those stories made up to make Americans look (more) stupid.
