To mark the release of her new album, 30, Adele is taking part in two television specials, An Audience With Adele in the UK and Adele One Night Only in the US.
The latter is to be shown on November 14 on CBS, but will be available on Anghami in the Mena region from November 19.
The TV special, which includes an interview with Oprah Winfrey, was filmed in Los Angeles’ Griffith Observatory. A crowd of celebrities, including Drake, Kris Jenner, Ellen DeGeneres, Lizzo and James Corden, watched Adele perform songs live, from her back catalogue and new unheard hits.
Much of the 10-song set list is made up of songs from her latest album. As 30 is to be released on Friday, November 19, the TV special will be the first time the album tracks are publicly heard. Other songs on the list span her previous three albums, 19, 21 and 25, as well as Skyfall, from the 2012 James Bond soundtrack.
The full 'Adele One Night Only' set list:
Hello, 25
Easy On Me, 30
Skyfall, non-album single
I Drink Wine, 30 – unheard
Someone Like You, 21
When We Were Young, 25
Make You Feel My Love, 19
Hold On, 30 – unheard
Rolling In The Deep, 21
Love Is A Game, 30 – unheard
In the interview with Winfrey, Adele is expected to discuss the emotional and personal angles of 30, which is predominantly about her divorce from Simon Konecki.
"The same way we aim to amplify local voices and to grow them globally, our objective as well is to connect global voices with their fans in the Middle East," says Eddy Maroun, chief executive of Anghami. "We’re proud to be the official broadcasters of Adele’s special in the Middle East and North Africa and we have more global projects coming in the next few quarters."
The UK special, An Audience With Adele, which was recorded in London on Saturday, will be shown in the country on Sunday, November 21. No UAE release has been announced at the time of writing.

Is it worth it? We put cheesecake frap to the test.
The verdict from the nutritionists is damning. But does a cheesecake frappuccino taste good enough to merit the indulgence?
My advice is to only go there if you have unusually sweet tooth. I like my puddings, but this was a bit much even for me. The first hit is a winner, but it's downhill, slowly, from there. Each sip is a little less satisfying than the last, and maybe it was just all that sugar, but it isn't long before the rush is replaced by a creeping remorse. And half of the thing is still left.
The caramel version is far superior to the blueberry, too. If someone put a full caramel cheesecake through a liquidiser and scooped out the contents, it would probably taste something like this. Blueberry, on the other hand, has more of an artificial taste. It's like someone has tried to invent this drink in a lab, and while early results were promising, they're still in the testing phase. It isn't terrible, but something isn't quite right either.
So if you want an experience, go for a small, and opt for the caramel. But if you want a cheesecake, it's probably more satisfying, and not quite as unhealthy, to just order the real thing.

Key findings of Jenkins report
- Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
- Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
- Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
- Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."

Red flags
- Promises of high, fixed or 'guaranteed' returns.
- Unregulated structured products or complex investments often used to bypass traditional safeguards.
- Lack of clear information, vague language, no access to audited financials.
- Overseas companies targeting investors in other jurisdictions - this can make legal recovery difficult.
- Hard-selling tactics - creating urgency, offering 'exclusive' deals.

Why are asylum seekers being housed in hotels?
The number of asylum applications in the UK has reached a new record high, driven by those illegally entering the country in small boats crossing the English Channel.
A total of 111,084 people applied for asylum in the UK in the year to June 2025, the highest number for any 12-month period since current records began in 2001.
Asylum seekers and their families can be housed in temporary accommodation while their claim is assessed.
The Home Office provides the accommodation, meaning asylum seekers cannot choose where they live.
When there is not enough housing, the Home Office can move people to hotels or large sites like former military bases.
