Sophia Grace Brownlee charmed her way into the hearts of millions with her cover of Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Super Bass,’ and now the British sensation has done it again with her take on Adele‘s ‘Rolling in the Deep’ on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show.’

Some good and bad news for Adele fans. We’ll start with the bad news: The soulful siren has cancelled all of her remaining 2011 performances to undergo throat surgery.

Nominations for the American Music Awards were announced today, and British singer Adele leads the pack with four nominations, including Artist of the Year and Favorite Female Artist. Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Lil Wayne and country group The Band Perry were right behind Adele with three nods apiece. Perry will perform on the show, as will Pitbull.

On Tuesday, British singer Adele announced she’s canceling her US tour because of throat problems — only a few months after she canceled part of her North American tour for the same reason.

Grammy-winning  singer Adele has released the full-length video for the second single off her blockbuster album ’21′ — and it’s just as haunting and somber as her previous hit ‘Rolling in the Deep.’ (You’ll need extra tissues for this one.)

Chanteuse Adele, whose smash album ’21′ has sold an estimated 10 million copies and is the best-selling album of 2011 in both the US and the singer’s native UK, recently told  Spinner that she’s mended fences with the man who broke her heart and inspired the songs on the record. “We’re becoming friends again,” she told a London audience this week. “It’s alright, I know what I’m doing. Enough time

When UK television host Jonathan Ross recently asked singer Adele about her upcoming projects, the soul superstar may have said a bit too much. “It is actually a theme … wow, that’s really giving something away!” she said, quickly covering her mouth. As Ross hummed the iconic James Bond theme song, she conceded, “It’s a concept. One song.”

Adele's song "Rolling In The Deep" has been one of the biggest songs of 2011 so far. Check out this video of an Air Force Band paying tribute to the song. The band is called Sidewinder and is part of the 571st Air Force Band. The woman singing is Staff Sgt. Angie Johnson (Heck of a voice she has!)

MTV announced Thursday that Adele, Chris Brown and Lil Wayne will each perform at its annual Video Music Awards in August. This will mark the first VMA performance for Adele, who is up for multiple awards, including Video of the Year, for her chart-topping single, ‘Rolling in the Deep.’

For the first time in seven years, music sales have posted an increase -- and the surprising charge is being led by Adele, Lady Gaga, and Katy Perry. The pop trio boasts the top-selling albums of 2011, with Adele's '21' coming out on top with 2.52 million copies sold, Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' in second with 1.54 million units, and Katy Perry boasting more than five million in digital singles sa

Adele has had a couple of amazing years, and she could hardly be blamed for wanting to take a little time to soak it all in for awhile -- but she isn't planning to slow down.
