Adele shows total support for Kesha during her BRIT acceptance speech

Adele may be nominated for four gongs at tonight's BRIT awards but she has already scooped up the prize for Best British Female Solo Artist at the prestigious ceremony. 

Adele took the time in her speech to show her support for Kesha, who is currently embroiled in a court battle to be freed from her record label, Sony. 

The 27-year-old took the time to thank her own record label for letting her "embrace the fact that I am a woman."

"And I'd also like to take this moment to publicly support Kesha", said the Hello singer at the end of her speech. 

Adele wore a ethereal red gown to the awards show which showed off her fabulous curves. 

Meanwhile, Kesha's plea to be freed from her record label following claims she was raped by her producer, Dr. Luke, was denied by a New York judge last week. 

Since then reams of celebrities have come out in favour of the singer including Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande and Lorde.
