Singer Adele was in pain throughout the Grammys on Sunday (08Feb09) after ripping off a thumbnail before Saturday night's (07Feb09) MusiCares tribute to Neil Diamond.

The British singer, who was named a Grammy Best New Artist, was forced to wear a large white bandage on her thumb as she performed Diamond's Cracklin' Rosie on the night before the Grammys, and a Band Aid to the prizegiving.

I was more aware of my thumb and not to keep knocking it and hurting it.Adele

She tells Eonline.com, "I ripped my nail off. I had fake nails on and I was having a tickling fight and it bent back and ripped my nail underneath off.
