Adele has been crying A LOT ever since her technical hitch at the Grammys, so good job Ellen DeGeneres knows how to cheer her up.

The pair got together for a hilarious prank on staffers at a milkshake shop on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where the 'Hello' singer played up to her eccentric celebrity image.

In the skit, Ellen dictates orders to Adele as she tries to buy some Jamba Juice with an assistant.

After ordering her to ask basic questions about cup sizes, Ellen's commands for the singer get more ridiculous when she says: "I'll take a large, but in a small cup."

As Adele shows confusion over Jamba Juice, Ellen tells her to say that we call it a "swishy chug" in Britain.

Then things get even more bizarre when Adele is forced to get a pair of scissors out of her bag and chop off some wheat grass to eat, and later swigs down some alcohol.

However, she eventually reveals her cover to the confused staffers.

Kudos to Adele for keeping a straight face the entire time. So if this whole singing thing doesn't work out she can always fall back on an Impractical Jokers-style career in hidden camera comedy.
