The actor worked at MTV Canada at the same time Adele was promoting her first album.
Dan Levy, who was championing Adele early in her career, reveals he had to push to get her on MTV Canada.
The Schitt’s Creek star made an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon Friday night and recalled discovering the once “little-known musician” when she was promoting her first album, 19, in the U.K. in 2008.
Levy fell in love with her, so when he got a job at MTV Canada shortly after and learned she was touring in Canada, he knew he had to get her on the show MTV Live. But he was met with his bosses not quite sharing the same level of excitement as him.
