The focus on my appearance has really surprised me. I've always been a size 14 to 16, I don't care about clothes, I'd rather spend my money on cigarettes and booze.

More quotes by Adele
I'd lose weight if I was an actress and had to play a role where you're supposed to be 40 lbs lighter, but weight has nothing to do with my career. Even when I was signing a contract, most of the industry knew if anyone ever dared say lose weight to me, they wouldn't be working with me.
Adele
I don't want to be on the cover of Playboy or Vogue.
Adele
Regrets and Mistakes, they're Memories made
Adele
In five years' time I'd like to be a mum. I want to settle down and have a family, definitely sooner rather than later. I'd like to have finished my second album too, maybe even my third. I'd like a sound that sticks around that other people are inspired by and that people know is me.
Adele
I don't want to be some skinny mini with my tits out. I really don't want to do it and I don't want people confusing what it is that I'm about.
Adele
I love love songs. But I love pop music as well: Girls Aloud, Kylie, the Spice Girls, East 17, Mika.
Adele
I have never been insecure, ever, about how I look, about what I want to do with myself. My mum told me to only ever do things for myself, not for others.
Adele
I wouldn’t be able to write a song like “Someone Like You” and get someone else to sing it because it’s so personal. It’s like giving away your heart.
Adele
Would I show my body off if I was thinner? Probably not, because my body is mine. I think I remind everyone of themselves. I'm not saying everyone is my size, but it's relatable because I'm not perfect, and I think a lot of people are portrayed as perfect, unreachable and untouchable.
Adele
I think it's shameful when you sell out. It depends what kind of artist you wanna be, but I don't want my name anywhere near another brand.
Adele
If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record. And be in love and be happy.
Adele
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavement, even if it leads nowhere?
Adele
I don't want people confusing what it is that I'm about. I just stand there and sing. And I don't do stunts or anything. if I wanted to do all that, I don't think I'd get away with it.
Adele
Be brave and fearless to know that even if you do make a wrong decision, you're making it for a good reason.
Adele
I've never seen magazine covers and seen music videos and been like I need to look like that if I want to be a success. Never. I don't want to be some skinny mini with my tits out. I really don't want to do it. And I don't want people confusing what it is that I'm about.
Adele
The scars of your love remind me of us they keep me thinking that we almost had it all the scars of your love they leave me breathless I can't help feeling we could have had it all
Adele
I'm nervous whenever I perform.
Adele
I love a card. You know, cards? At birthdays? I collect them.
Adele
It's warts and all in my songs, and I think that's why people can relate to them.
Adele
I don't write songs about a specific, elusive thing. I write about love, and everyone knows what it is like to have your heart broken.
Adele
