QuoteAdele?s ?Hello? video has been viewed almost 2 billion times on YouTube since it?s debut in 2015. What many of us probably didn?t know is that there is a second hidden message that the singer wanted to convey.

In an interview with Vulture, the video?s director, Xavier Dolan, explained that Adele was adamant about not casting a white actor for the video. She ended up casting a Black man to start the conversation of police brutality.

?It was her desire that we wouldn?t cast a caucasian male in this, which I thought was great,? Dolan told Vulture. ?She called me and said, ?This is what I think we should do,? and if my memory serves me right ? I?m going to be honest, it?s tragic not to be able to remember what exact conflict was on the news at that moment, because there are so many incidents of police brutality.?

He continued, ?She was just like, ?I?m concerned with the reality of the tensions between authorities and the black community, and I want to send a message out there.? I thought it was beautiful. I wish it was my idea, but it wasn?t.?

Do you guys think Adele?s message was read loud and clear or do you think it was a reach?

Did she call the cops on him?

Nothing is more dangerous to a black man's safety than a white woman.
