Quote

There is nothing that would upset me more than my dad being bribed by the press. It's like, 'Just let them run it, then. Don't you give them ammunition.'

It's warts and all in my songs, and I think that's why people can relate to them.

I love a card. You know, cards? At birthdays? I collect them.
Adele

I think no matter what you look like, the key is to first of all be happy with yourself. And then you know if you want to try to improve things that you don't like about yourself, then do it after your appreciate yourself.
Adele

Be brave and fearless to know that even if you do make a wrong decision, you're making it for a good reason.

Mum loves me being famous! She is so excited and proud, as she had me so young and couldn't support me, so I am living her dream, it's sweeter for both of us. It's her 40th birthday soon and I'm going to buy her 40 presents.

I have insecurities of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me.

Crying is really bad for your vocal cords.

Where you go, I go, What you see, I see, I know I'd never be me without the security, Are your loving arms keeping me from harm Put your hands in my hand & we'll stand.
Adele

I mean, the thought of someone spending $20 to come and see me and saying 'Oh, I prefer the record and she's completely shattered the illusion' really upsets me. It's such a big deal that people come give me their time.

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
Image
I just want to make music, I don't want people to talk about me. All I've ever wanted to do was sing. I don't want to be a celebrity. I don't want to be in people's faces, you know, constantly on covers of magazine that I haven't even known I'm on.
Adele

I've never had a problem with the way I look. I'd rather go for lunch with my friends than go to a gym.
Adele
Image
I'm very confident. Even when I read people saying horrible stuff about my weight.
Adele
Image
I don't want to be in everyone's face. I'm a big music fan, and I get really pissed off when it gets like that and I don't want people to get like that with me.

You have to prioritize what you stress about when you have a child.

Sometimes my songs wander off a bit and are not always coherent.

I read a comment [about me] on YouTube that I thought would upset me — ‘Test pilot for pies’ — but I’ve always been a size 14-16 and been fine with it. I would only lose weight if it affected my health or sex life, which it doesn’t.

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.

Sometimes with pop music, you have to see it to love it. With soul music, it's sparse. There's nothing that's pretentious or planned. It's just so gutsy.
Adele

I don't really need to stand out, there's room for everyone. Although I haven't built a niche yet, I'm just writing love songs.
