Watch Adele try her best to deceive Jimmy Fallon during 'Box of Lies'
Adele can do a lot of things — sing beautifully, shatter records, bring families together around the Thanksgiving table. One thing she's not that great at is lying, as demonstrated on Monday's Tonight Show. For "Box of Lies," Adele had to open a box and either describe the outlandish item inside, or come up with a lie about the contents, in an attempt to stump host Jimmy Fallon. He may have been charmed by her accent, but Fallon wasn't falling for her lies (or truths). Watch the clip below, and brace yourself for the box that somehow made it past network censors, containing a popular electronic game covered with very suggestive-looking noses. Catherine Garcia
