Queen lauds Adele
LONDON, England (AP) — Adele is getting a new medal to go alongside her Grammys and Academy Award — an honour from Queen Elizabeth II.
The Rumour Has It and Skyfall singer was named a Member of the Order of the British Empire, or MBE, on Friday in the queen’s annual Birthday Honors list.
Her award, for services to music, caps 12 months in which the 25-year-old singer won an Oscar for her James Bond theme song and gave birth to her first child.
