Adele visits Grenfell Tower firefighters for 'tea and a cuddle'


Adele has taken the devastating losses from the Grenfell Tower fire in London to heart. After visiting the site of last week's blaze that killed at least 79 and injured dozens more to express her sympathy and comfort victims, the singer dropped in to Chelsea Fire Station on Monday (June 19) to meet some of the firefighters who helped put out the conflagration that destroyed the 24-story residential tower.

One of the firemen, Rob Petty, posted some pictures on Facebook of the meeting, writing, "not everyday the wonderfully grounded and caring Adele pops into Chelsea Firestation for a cup of tea and a cuddle."

Adele isn't the only UK star who has come out for the victims of the fire. An all-star group of singers reportedly including Craig David, Emile Sandé, Rita Ora, Celine Dion, Robbie Williams, Liam Payne, Roger Daltrey, Jessie J, Queen's Brian May and Louis Tomlinson are participating in a single benefiting the victims of the fire slated for release on Wednesday morning (June 21). The charity single, coordinated by Simon Cowell, is said to be a cover of Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge over Troubled Waters."
