The Emmys aren’t easy to come by, but Adele just added one to her moaning coat. Celebrating his recent victory – for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) for One night only on CBS – the singer took to Instagram to document her joy. “Holy shit, I’m thrilled as a thumbs up!” she captioned a selfie taken with her new award. The trophy brings the superstar one step closer to EGOT status – which denotes an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony winner. Adele just needs a Tony Award to complete her set.

Bare-faced, shiny and makeup-free, the singer looked relaxed and happy in the trio of photographs, in which she also wore an effortlessly oversized black t-shirt. With her tousled hair and some soft Scandi-esque waves running through the ends, she showed off an unmistakable glow. Even the highly polished gold statuette did not live up to its natural luminosity.
Usually known for her glamorous approach to hair and makeup on stage, it’s always refreshing to see Adele looking stripped down and real on Instagram. In May, she celebrated her birthday by rocking the perfect high-low pairing of a black Carolina Herrera mini dress and a barely there beauty look.
