ADELE'S WORLD TOUR BEGINS

Adele kicked off her sold-out World Tour Monday night in Belfast, Northern Ireland. And she's getting rave reviews. The singer is slated to perform 105 dates on this tour, including a three-night stop at the United Center on July 10, 11 and 13. The tour is Adele's first arena tour ever and her first tour in four years. She admitted to the Belfast audience that she was scared to perform and had "bad bowel movements" all day. TMI, Adele.

This tour supports Adele's top-selling album, "25," which has sold more than 8 million copies in the US and more than 15 million worldwide. The tour also features some of Adele's biggest hits from her albums "19" and "21" including "Chasing Pavements," "Someone Like You," and "Rolling In The Deep." From giant screens to acoustic performances to even rain on the stage, Adele is proving that she is a force to be reckoned with.

KELLY CLARKSON RELEASES IDOL VERSION OF "PIECE BY PIECE

Kelly Clarkson set off a viral sensation last week when she performed a piano-only version of her song, "Piece by Piece" on American Idol. The song was inspired by her absent father, as well as her husband and father of her children, Brandon Blackstock. Clarkson broke down at the end of the song and attributed it to hormones since she is pregnant with her second child. Fans loved the Idol version of the song so much that Clarkson went into the studio and recorded it.

You can now purchase it on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and Google Play.
