Adele premiered her kaleidoscopic new music video for Send My Love (To Your New Lover) at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night.
Wearing a flowing, flowery Dolce and Gabbana gown against a stark black background, the video starts off calm before descending into a hallucinogenic riot of dance moves and multiple Adeles.
That’s right, the hypnotic Patrick Daughters-directed video treats us to more Adeles than we could ever have dreamed of.
It’s the third single from her third album 25 and is certain to be a new hit.

Although the double-vision situation was a little too much for some.

The video was just one highlight of Adele fans’ night as their queen also picked up Top Artist, the biggest award.
She was not in town to accept her trophy as Adele is currently on her world tour, but she sent a cute thank you to everyone.
YES! @Adele accepts the award of the night! Congrats on being named this year's TOP ARTIST!
Congratulations, Adele!
