Singer Adele recently finished taking her driving lessons, but it reportedly came as a surprise to her when her instructor Noel Gaughan failed to recognise her when they first met.

The "Rolling in the deep" singer even sang some of her famous tracks during the driving classes so that they could ring a bell in Gaughan's mind, but that didn't happen, reports contactmusic.com.

"She would sing some beautiful songs and say 'You must know this one', but I don't really know many celebrities," said Gaughan.

The instructor has also taught driving to celebrities like Gemma Arterton, James MCAvoy and Niall Horan.
