The world is in love with Adele, or at least Canada is, judging by how fast tickets to her upcoming shows were gobbled up.
If the biggest form of flattery is imitation, then the British singer has plenty of copycats. And what better way to pay homage to the woman with the awesome cat eyeliner than to write and perform your own parody?
"Hello from the Mother Side" by Texan singer-songwriter Emily Mills is fan girling at its best.
Mills has some decent pipes on her, and what mother among us can't relate to homework woes, stress eating, and shared love of vino?
"Hello, mama, how've you been?" sings Mills in the video shot in Adele's trademark sepia. "I can tell you've been stress eating from the Cheetos on your hand. It's OK. You need a win, you've been plucking facial whiskers and your thighs touch skin to skin."
Could that be...? Does that mean...? Hope you're not pregnant.
"Hello from the mother side," she sings. "I think I might break down and cry because I love my children, but I don't want any more. Can somebody pass me the pinot noir?"
I think, being a mom in her own right, Adele herself would see the funny side of this parody.
"The Mother Side" ranks as one of our fave spoof songs about parenting. See also this one about MILFs, which made us swoon even harder for this celebrity charmer.
