Adele, Glastonbury 2013: Singer Turns Down Invite to Perform at Festival

Though she is an accomplished singer and a record-breaking machine, underneath it all, Adele's a human being just like the rest of us. In a recent exchange with the Glastonbury Festival boss Micheal Evis, The 24-year-old singing sensation rejected an offer to headline the event in 2013.

According to Eavis the chart-topping star declined the invitation because "She knows that we want her anyway, but she doesn't want to do a thing our size.Going on the Pyramid Stage is a bit daunting in front of 80,000 people; it's a bit much really," he elaborated.

The singer will still be attending the festival however -- but only as an onlooker. In Eavis' words, "She comes every year usually, and has her own little party." For now, it seems, Adele seems content to relax and recuperate from her hectic 2011.
