Happy birthday, Adele!

Hours before turning 26 today, the Grammy winner took to Twitter and posted a makeup-free selfie.

But it's the tweet that accompanied the photo that has folks buzzing.

"Bye bye 25 ... See you again later in the year x," she wrote.

Not suprising, many fans quickly jumped to the conclusion that Adele was hinting that we could very well be getting a new album from her in the coming months. After all, her past albums have been titled 19 and 21. So, one called 25 would make perfect sense, right?

Mind you, it wouldn't exactly be too much of a surprise.

Last October, OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder revealed he was working with Adele on new music for her upcoming third album, telling the Herald Sun at the time that the "Rolling in the Deep" songstress "sounds even better than before."

He added, "I love where she's at. She's still my favorite artist in the world. I would press pause on my entire life if it meant I could go into the studio for a month straight with her."

Guess time will tell if we'll soon be getting a new collection of tunes from the birthday girl.

Fingers crossed, of course. Fingers crossed.
