For this wondering about her age - Adrienne had stage 4 lymphoma and was age 41. Quite young and very sad.
That is sad. So young.
they can keep you going with that disease today for a long time.
even at stage 4. too bad
So sad. She lived one year longer than Lennon did. (at 40 years & 2 months)
Too young! RIP
R.I.P.
So sad she wasn’t alive to see this. Who would’ve guessed Paul McCartney would still be with us in 2024 but not her?
Diet is key. Paul has been a vegetarian most of his life. Adrian, even at a young age, looked prone to being overweight. Her children aren’t exactly thin either. Genetics are very important, as are your own choices, i.e., diet.
@@user-gz9dv9oh9o she died when she was 41 years old of lymphoma. you're so rude.
@@1412Bunny I don’t think so, I speak the truth- genetics and diet are important factors in having a long life. Of course, those are generalities and don’t address this person’s specific circumstances. If she died young from cancer, that is both sad and unfortunate. But you can’t tell me that having a healthy diet and a genetic predisposition towards being thin and not overweight doesn’t give a person a far greater chance of living a longer life. How many very overweight people in their 80s or 90s do you see? The answer is almost none, because those people generally die before they reach those ages. That is reality. It’s not surprising that Paul, as someone who seems predisposed toward being thin, and who has maintained a healthy diet all his life, is still alive and vibrant. It’s not a coincidence.
@@user-gz9dv9oh9oalso Paul doesn't act like a old grandpa if you notice.
@@user-gz9dv9oh9odo you think paul’s healthy diet of smoking and drug use helped him live this long?
She was soo cute! Too bad she didn't get to meet Paul.
But she definately is singing now with John and George.
Life goes on
Paul should definitely invite her family and give them the VIP treatment, that would be epic ❤️
He'll do something - we may not hear about it (for a while a least) but he'll do something.
....why? the thing is with the mother no with her whole family
What a very COOL story! To have Paul call out your name is something super special! Sorry she wasn't here to see that video. Rest In Peace Adrienne...
This comment seems half ingenuine and frankly AI generated.
Correct, "this"^^^^
@@sadguy399You do mean your own comment, right? Because, yes, I agree
@@pattyayers Whatever you say lol
It’s sad she didn’t get to meet him, but at least Paul McCartney remembered the clip, and her family got to see Paul mention her.
that was some PR stunt, bs. nobody do a shout out to a fan 50 years later.
🌺 "Adrienne from Brooklyn" would have loved this personal meet and greet with her teen idol!
Obsessed with a celebrity and they call you a superfan. Obsessed with an average citizen and they call you a creep.
@@jhowardsupporter Wow. That was so deep, jhowardsupporter. Did you think about that one all by yourself??
jhoward: It takes a creep to know a creep, eh?
Nah, she already gave Sir Paul really good head lol
@jhowardsupporter, she was just a child, 13 or 14 years old.
A sign from her mom. So beautiful. So true. congratulations.
lol lay of the weed
I didn't expect this to be so touching. RIP Adrienne.
I’m glad to see she had a great life and a wonderful family. RIP 🙏.
Brought a tear to my eye. I remember that clip when it originally made the news. I'm sure Adrienne would be over the moon today.
I teared up to, I was born that year and I was born and raised in Brooklyn,in Greenpoint, she seemed so adorable ,and it wasn't skipping school in Brooklyn it was playing hooky,lol r.i.p Adrienne
She's in a place far beyond the moon today :)
I teared up too watching this video
It's bittersweet that this is occuring now that's she long passed away. What a cool story that would have been to see her meeting Paul at the Brooklyn photo exibition! But it's really nice for the family them to showcases their mom. RIP Adrienne. Hope you're getting to attend as many of Paul's concerts as you want!🙏✝
we love you too adrienne from brooklyn. RIP
So sweet of Paul McCartney.
She's giggling up in heaven!❤
Awww I’m so sad she missed this 😢🙏🏾
Oh! So sad! She was clearly a bundle of fun and much loved.
Paul is still touring and while his voice isn’t the same, he *STILL* rocks out and puts on a great show, covering songs that John wrote and those that George wrote. *GO* see him in concert if you can!
100%
Saw him last year in Sydney Australia
Took my 11 year old daughter who loved it
Told her she can say she saw a Beatle live . When she’s about 50 and looks back
@paulc5935 Good on ya, mate! She had fun at his concert, I reckon!
Wich John and George songs he`s covering?
Something
@jackprescott9652 He has performed John’s “Imagine”, “Please Please Me” & “I’ll
Get You” (co-written but 90% John’s). By George “Something”, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”, and “Taxman”.
Paul is so sweet. And now we know how sweet Adrienne from Brooklyn was too. I love The Beatles. Nothing but joy to the hearts of millions on our planet.
God bless Paul for the shout out. I am sure she'll be there Paul.
I wish this had a happier ending and a whole family reunion with Macca. Adrienne seemed like a warm and beautiful soul. RIP.
Omg what a gal... RIP😊 GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN😊
What a wonderful experience for her loving family! R.I.P., Adrienne.
So sad she passed away
To Adrianne's family, I love her. This story made me cry and happy at the same time!
I am 32 y/o straight man and this story brought out tears from my eyes. How I wish they have met before she passed way. RIP
That is such an awesome story! Really made me happy. Her family must be thrilled.
Adrienne was such a cute young girl. I'm only very sorry that she did not live long enough to see Paul McCartney reaching out to her. I'm sure it would have made her smile. RIP
Would be nice if he invited them all to his exhibition! 🤩👍
I bet he will!
Refreshing to hear a good story for a change.
This is a great story and it shows you what kind of person Paul is.
Oh, it’s a bid sad. I was hoping Adrian would finally meet Paul in person. But … 😢
Paul can still meet her through her children, they should attend.
I hope her family goes to the exhibition and Paul comes to meet them. That would be a great thing for Paul to do. So sad that she passed away so young.
Hey Paul Jeanette from Warrenton, VA Loves you with all her heart!
Super sweet and cool story.
She seemed too ‘groovy’.
Sad she’s not with us anymore.
That’s really cool. I’ve watched that video since i was kid and amongst the fans we know those special fans that stuck out. I remember a girl who did a painting of paul coming up from the ground “like a sprout’. The girl said to her the Beatles are a new dawn of a new generation, couldn’t agree more. Much love to Adrienne who although she has passed, her wish did come true many years later. Here’s to you 🥂
Yeah, I remember that girl too. She says, "...and if you notice, he's like GROWING!" I think see said she wouldn't tear him apart and would speak to him like a decent human being, if she got to meet him. That kind of stuff is really charming, I think. These girls were a million percent sincere, you know. I was a 5 year old boy in 1964 - 65 and nobody was a bigger Beatle fan than me, so I totally empathize. Cheers!
I remember seeing that video. It was from The Complete Beatles on VHS tape back in 1982.
Red special 🎸
Tell Adrienne's kids to contact the museum to see if they could meet him, maybe he'd stop by the house. Paul enjoys talking to fans.
Maybe the news network contacted him, and he met her kids.
Well that was heartwarming 😊
Adrianne from brooklyn💖You have a beautiful family loves you wt all hearts🙏
Her family shows what a wonderful woman she must have been, love from Liverpool UK
My great aunt was one of the women who greeted them when they first arrived. They had two women standing on the tarmac, and she was one of them. I never knew about it till after she passed away.
Oh poor soul So happy he acknowledged her wonderful ❣️
wow I've seen that video clip before and wondered about that girl from Brooklyn! This is so cool. ❤
How sweet❤
If we all got the chance to meet Paul 😍✨❤
I believe Paul was made aware of her because of Ron Howard's documentary.
which one?
Kind of him to give Adrienne a shout-out like that.
I’ve always been curious about the crowd and if we got to see them now.
How many great stories like this exist!!!
Real passion in her message... All you need is Love ❤️
my auntie skipped school and went as my mom tells it she was in awe this would be amazing to go to love the Beatles my mom use to put us on her feet and we would dance around the house
Oh. That accent. They don’t make that accent like that anymore. BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Yup, all you need is love.
Ma saw them at Carnegie Hall. The early Fan years!
Love it ! Best wishes and greetings to Brooklyn from Duesseldorf ! We are all Beatles Fans
For reference as to how beloved and impactful this band was/is…
I saw Paul live 2 years ago, I cried (happy tears) and had the same exact reaction as Adrianne and all of the girls in the 60s. I’m 20 years old and now have younger cousins who love The Beatles as much as I do. As cheesy as it is to say, this band really did change the world. There was nothing like them before, there will never be anything like them again, they will always be the greatest and most influential band ever, and people will love them until the end of time
Omg this is so beautiful..so sad for th eloss..RIP beautiful lady..Luv you Paul mccartney.
My mother was a child on the 1960's.my mother is currently 67 years old.
Poor lady died so young. RIP.
@@finch45lear how old she was?
@@vanessagreenlee561841 💖
Well Paul you could really make her family’s day if you visited or gave them special tickets to see and meet you. Would still be really great even though their mother passed on.
How lovely. RIP
Aww. It's a shame that she never got to meet him. She had great taste in music.
What a superfan indeed. Still helping out paul. ❤
Oh god 😢 paul is really a cool guy , it was late but , thak you paul anyway ❤
I hope Sir Paul invited them all to his showing.
Such a pity she never got to see this.
I always wondered abt her. I saw that clip many years ago. She’s smiling in heaven ❤
Lovely story, tinged with sadness.
clearly she was loved, a very big personality. They still love her.
love adrians accent. so thick it stands out to this native new yorker
So sad. RIP Adrienne.
Paul should of invited the family to meet him in her honour ...bit disappointed he didn't extend that invitation
Who knows? Maybe it's in the works, too early to judge.
it's great to see their love and support for their mom.
hopefully paul invited the family to the exhibit
This is just about the coolest and sweetest thing ever!
RIP beautiful Adrienne.
Great story
Imagine seeing your deceased mom going viral decades after her passing. I hope Adrienne sees this wherever she's at.
SO COOL
NOW HER FAMILY CAN ENJOY
HER MEMORIES
WITH THE BEATLES
What a lovely story although such a shame Adrienne from Brooklyn isn't with us anymore. Sending love to her wonderful family from Liverpool UK where I grew up in the next town to Woolton/Allerton which is where Paul and John were from.
Fabulous memory ❤❤
That’s an absolute beautiful story
I thought she married Rocky and moved to Philly
Silly
Rilly?
@@razeezar gth off here if you are some kind of sm loser okay !
Funny!
That was nice of Paul! It is a shame she is not here to hear his invite.😢
Great story...Macca always a class act!
Wonderful update.
What a thrill for her children to have their beloved mother come back into their lives long after she had passed :) :)
Aww this is so wholesome
yall finna hit 100M subs soon
That was soooo cool for Paul to do that.
I clicked on the comments specifically to see if anyone has any information of her whereabouts and if she’s even alive
Truly truly upsetting to hear she’s passed. Would’ve been the worlds greatest viral moment to have her be able to meet Paul as his biggest fan all these years later
Just curious, why go to the comments first when the video is about the girl's identity and life?
@@JacoWium if you’re familiar with the timeline of the Beatles and you take a look at the title of the video, you’ll realize the girl lording over Paul McCartney was similar in age to him.
The question about whether she was even alive was the first thing that popped in my head upon reading the title
@@illuviium The info you were looking for is in the video! So I'm just curious, why search for info in the comments when it' is spelled out in the video.. Did you even watch it? But, nevermind. You'd rather try and teach me about timelines and age and things, I see.
❤ love this ty Jeanette NYC USA 🇺🇸
That was cool of Paul McCartney.
🎼Love, Love, Love 🎶
They do call him Paul McCharmly for a reason
Wow ❤finally found Adrienne! ❤
Crazy to think that Paul McCartney outlived her
Why Didn't Adrians Family show up to meet Paul? He would have taken a photo with them I'm sure.
I love how she said “alls you need is love” so New York
Priceless.
God bless her. She’s in heaven swooning over Paul.
A nice story, in todays troubled world we definitely need more love
