Adele is Asked about Being Plus-Sized, Responds Beautifully

Adele is Asked about Being Plus-Sized, Responds Beautifully November 23, 2015

I love Adele and her great music!  Her new album is flying to the top of the charts, but interviewers keep asking her about… wait for it… her weight.  During an interview with Australia’s version of 60 Minutes, she responded this way:

“I’ve always been asked questions about my body and my weight and my size and my style and stuff like that… And I totally understand. It’s a little bit annoying that men don’t get asked that question as much. But other than that it seemed to astound people that I was plus size and being successful, that was how I felt. I don’t make music for eyes. I make music for ears.”

Additionally, she was asked about “body image issues” last week on the radio, and she responded:

“I do have body image problems, for sure, but I don’t let them rule my life at all… There’s only one of you, so why would you want to look like anyone else? Why would you want to have the same hair style as everyone else and have the same opinions as everybody else?”
