Saturday Night Live teased fans with a clip of British singer Adele ahead of her first hosting gig. 

The 32 year-old is set to present this week’s popular US sketch show and has sent fans into meltdown as she showed off her American accent and hinted at a live performance. 

In a short clip posted on SNL’s Twitter, Adele is stood between artist H.E.R and resident comic Kate McKinnon.

Adele introduces the video, saying: “Hi, I’m Adele and I’m hosting Saturday Night Live this week with musical guest H.E.R."

McKinnon then attempts a London accent, adding: “So tune in, it’s set to be wicked.”

She quickly apologises and said: “I’m sorry, bad idea."

But Adele decided to show off her American accent, and said: “Oh my god! No worries, girlfriend!”

To which McKinnon replied: “Now that is good!”

The 15-time Grammy winner Adele also hinted that she may be performing live, in what will be the first time in three years.
