Fun

Adele and Julie posted a flurry of photos on social media having fun while waiting for Beyonce and Jay Z to take stage later in the night.

“The Global Citizen Festival in Soweto yesterday was absolutely magical, pic here with the wonderful,” said Julie. 

“To end a spectacular festival Jay Z and Beyonce blew our socks off… literally (I saw so many people just take off their shoes and let go) ?” said Adele.
