Adele offered a moving tribute to the victims on Tuesday's terrorist attacks in Belgium as she performed the final night of her six-show London residency. The 27-year-old pop star first asked for the audience to turn on their phones to light up the O2 Arena. "This is Make You Feel My Love, and this is for Brussels tonight," she announced. "I want you to all sing it with me so they hear us. "After finishing the song, she told her fans: "I don't think I've ever actually been so moved before in my life at one of my shows. That was just so beautiful. Thank you very much for doing that… I think they heard us."

Elsewhere in London, the premiere of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice went ahead as planned, although red carpet interviews were cancelled. "Our hearts go out to the victims of recent terrorist attacks, their families and the communities impacted around the world," Warner Bros. said in a statement.
