Adele was muted by ITV as she swore during one of her winner's speeches at Tuesday night's Brit Awards.
After cancelling her Las Vegas shows at the last minute last month, the multiple Brit winner was back on home turf for ceremony at the O2 Arena in London.
Her evening got off to a great start when she won the award for Song of the Year for her 2021 comeback number 1 Easy on Me.

After accepting that trophy from stars of hit TV series Ted Lasso, Adele then took to the stage later in the show to perform I Drink Wine from her recent chart topping album 30.
And she was back on the stage at the Brits 2022 a short time after when she beat off competition from the likes of Sam Fender and Ed Sheeran to win Artist of the Year.
In her second acceptance speech of the night, Adele paid tribute to fellow nominee Little Simz, who had just won Best New Artist.
But it was when giving her thoughts on the rapper that ITV bosses hit the mute button as Adele said: "I want to say a massive congratulations to Little Simz.
"I've got to much love for you I think you're absolutely..." before the sound cut off for a few seconds.
Mentioning the other nominees in the category as the sound came back, Adele continued: "Dave, Ed, Sam; I love being in your company.
"I genuinely love being an artist. I can't believe it's my job."
At the end of her speech Adele addressed the fact that Artist of the Year replaced the separate Best Male and Female categories.
She said, while she understood why the new category had been created she was proud to be a female artist.
At the end of this year's Brits, Adele won her third trophy of the night for Album of the Year.
