LONDON – Adele has won numerous Grammy and Oscar awards, but she is now graced with one of the highest honors she has received to date. The 25-year-old singer was given the MBE medal, reserved for meritorious British subjects, presented by Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace for her services to music.
Adele arrived in her multi-color Stella McCartney dress to accept the award as she curtseyed and thanked the royal family.
The singer was inducted as a member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire because of her success through the years with music. According to Amazon, her album “21” has made her the best-selling artist of all time.
To be a member of the Order of the British Empire, is to be recognized for prestigious services in the Arts and Sciences. Others to be honored during the ceremony include Christian Horner, the team principal of the Red Bull Formula One racing team, along with Paralympians Josie Pearson and Aled Davies, both of whom won gold medals during the 2012 London games.
