Rumors kept swirling that Adele would be attending and either performing or presenting at the Awards as well. Following confirmation from several reports online that Adele would appear at the Grammys, she did show up. She went on to win the award for Best Pop Solo Performance for the second year in a row. Although several online sites claimed Adele would sing at the awards, she did not and instead served as a presenter for the Album of the Year award. She presented the award to Mumford & Sons (who she has said she is a big fan of) for their album Babel.
