Who are 'Hello' Singer Adele's Musical Faves, Besides 'Hotline Bling's' Drake?

3.38 million. According to Nielson Music Data, that is the number of copies of Adele's latest album, 25, has sold during the first week of sales in the United States. It is the first time that a music album has sold more than 3 million copies in one week. It is difficult to imagine that someone as huge of a success as "Hello" singer Adele would have idols, but its true. She does. By now, everyone is well aware of her affinity for Drake, the infamous "Hotline Bling" rapper of meme legend, but who else does Adele go gaga for?

Just in case you missed it, let's start with Drake. During an interview with eTalk, Adele talked glowingly about the rapper, saying, "I really want us to do an official remix. I love Drake. I love Drake so much. I even got the coat that's in the video—I got it delivered the other day, I ordered it. The red one." Not only is the diva willing to do the remix, but it sounds like she is already dressing the part.

Of course, this door swings both ways. Drake is such a huge fan of Adele that he has posted fan art of the dynamic duo talking on the phone. Plus, he even admitted to eTalk that he is willing to do the woman's laundry! "I'd do anything with Adele. I'd literally go to Adele's house right now and do laundry for her."

However, Drake is not the only person Adele goes nuts over. There is actually a list.

Beyoncé is on that list, even after having joined the "Crazy in Love" singer in super stardom. In an interview with Zane Lowe, Vanity Fair reports she confessed, "I'm such a fan, oh my God!" At a different point in the interview, Adele rattled off a few of her favorite musicians, including Lana Del Rey and the Alabama Shakes before stating her number one: "Obviously, Queen Bey to the day I die.""

Another on that list? The Cure was actually the first concert Adele ever attended with her mom at the young, impressionable age of 3. And what an impression it made! If you are a more recent fan, you may not know that Adele covered a mournful "Lovesong," by The Cure on her 21 album.

Other stars who Adele would like to say "Hello" to include Bette Midler and Stevie Nicks. Apparently, the singer actually cried the first time she met Nicks and, based on what she told Out, Adele is pretty sure that Midler's mouth has the King Midas touch: "Everything that comes out of her mouth is just gold."
