Adele is a world renowned singer with a powerhouse voice that can leave you with goosebumps for hours. She doesn’t have much to do with Pakistan, if you think about it. But then, Pakistan’s been in the news recently for all the wrong reasons.
The blast in Lahore on March 27, 2016 rocked the nation
And the world.

Please delete your 'Eiffel Tower lights up in solidarity with #LahoreBlast ' tweets. Not true. The picture is from 2007 Rugby World Cup.

There are those who you don’t appreciate as much for their empathy
Display of destruction & #terrorism is sickening! My thoughts go out to the families affected by #LahoreBlast.
