Adele has admitted she could never play a festival because she gets such bad stage fright.

The singer, whose album '21' is currently number one in the UK, admitted that she would have a 'heart attack' if she played a festival.

"I can't do them. They make me nervous. I am crippled by stage fright. It gets worse the more I've been doing things," Adele told the Daily Record

She added: "I can't even have a bit of Dutch courage because I do not drink when I am singing. I have to go on and grin and bear it but it disappoints me because I am so nervous that I'm never as good as I like to be for the first two songs."

"I think I would have a heart attack if I did a festival. The thought of that many people coming to see me or nobody coming to see me would make me s*It myself. "

Meanwhile, Chase and Status have revealed that they want to collaborate with Adele in the near future.
