Adele 'sexing up image' - according to source who told it to Star magazine
"Adele has reportedly lost 25lbs in a bid to 'sex up her image'.
The 23-year-old singing sensation recently tweeted a picture of herself that showed a slimmer face and leaner torso. And a source has told Star magazine that she wanted to look her best for the upcoming Grammy Awards and also to help other aspects of her career. 'She's finally caved to weight pressure,' the source told the publication. 'Adele swore up and down that she was comfortable in her own skin, but she's only human. 'She wanted to sex up her image a bit. And she thinks she'll get even more fashion and acting offers if she shaves off a few pounds.' Last November, Adele underwent emergency surgery for a haemorrhaged vocal cord and was advised to take a break from singing. The health scare is also believed to have been an incentive for her weight loss. 'Doctors suggested that less junk food and more exercise would be the all-around right thing ' for her health, her stamina, even her vocal range,' the source added. So Adele has apparently taken up Pilates, power-walking and healthy eating as she recuperates from her operation. 'Adele wanted to wow when she steps out again at the Grammys,' the source said. 'And by the looks of things, that's definitely going to happen.' © Cover Media" SOURCE: http://www.music-news.com/shownews.a...&nItemID=47595 So is Adele really going to perform at the Grammys? That'll be amazing. |

I think Adele has definitely lost a lot of weight (based on the latest picture I saw of her), but I think that was more because of the surgery she's just had than anything.
She can do what she wants in my opinion, but, I know this is controversial, but I think a large part of her appeal is that she's slightly overweight, so it could hurt her image and sales if she got thinner, I think. |

She's lost a lot of weight in the last year just because of how busy she's been - you'd be surprised how much touring and a lack of spare time whips you into shape. She was looking noticeably thinner in the summer IMO, it's not just the surgery.
To be honest, I don't believe a word of the report. Anyone who's seen her in interviews knows she is completely comfortable with the way she looks and doesn't take any crap about it. Besides, her management would be stupid to suggest it. I hate to say it, but her weight is a talking point. Not so much in "look at the fat girl" but in terms of it being quite refreshing to have a pop star who doesn't care about their looks. |

If she has lost weight I imagine its mainly down to the stress of her recent health problems. But of course the press/tabloids will never report it that way will they.

Even in the Rolling In The Deep video she looks a lot thinner than she did in the '19' days.
And I imagine that a common side effect of having throat surgery is losing weight... |

Sounds like typical tabloid nonsense, taking a nugget of truth (Adele has lost weight) and spinning it into a story.

Well she does have the likes of Lana Del Rey to compete with now who has the talent to natch her but completely overtakes in the style stakes.

How could we forget you and your entirely accurate predictions on Adele? I think Mystic Meg can relax. Sweet dreams. I particularly like this total untruth: Quote:
No prizes if anyone is proven to be very accurate but if my predications are a long way out I will promise to curb my posts a bit stating all the fantastic music records that Taylor swift has broke in her short career.
Ps genuine question, GL. Did your hubby play keyboards for Adele in the '19' era?

That thread is hilarious!
![]() I don't think anyone could have predicted that Adele would sell so many records however ![]() And her actual sales total appear to vary from fan to fan and from website to website so to be honest its almost impossible to know how many she has actually sold in reality. |
