Out of the loop?

1. Adele says life with her baby son helps her recognize what’s important in life – but don’t ask her what’s on the radio these days.

“I’ve been out of the loop really. I’ve just sort of been singing my baby nursery rhymes, so I don’t really know what’s cool or what’s not,” the beloved British singer said backstage at the Grammys after winning best pop vocal performance for “Set Fire to the Rain.”

The new mom, who wore a floral red and black Valentino dress this time, picked up six trophies at last year’s show.

Adele has since let her singing career take a backseat to raising her newborn son with boyfriend Simon Konecki.

“I’ve been up since 6 a.m., so I’m quite tired,” she said Sunday night when asked how she’s managing motherhood in the music biz.

“But it’s nice. I haven’t been as stressed out. You have to prioritize what you stress about and worry about when you have a child,” she said.

2. Tim Kaine is sounding a hopeful note that a Democratic White House could work with Republicans to bridge deep divides laid bare by this bitter presidential campaign.

The vice presidential candidate told The Associated Press on Saturday that he and Hillary Clinton have already spoken about how to heal the nation if they should win. He said tackling economic anxieties, finding common policy ground with the GOP and perhaps bringing Republicans into the administration would be elements of unity, though he added that he and Clinton did not discuss Cabinet positions.
