Adele #2 She could've had it aaalll!!!

[Milfordcubicle]

She knew she’d won. I mean she even said “I’ve changed into a short dress so I didn’t trip up the stairs”
her face does look so wonky. It is like someone has taken bits of OG Adele and stuck them in a thin suit

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, whilst her recordings sound AMAZING, her live singing just really isn’t great. I never feel at ease watching her live performances as I just never know when to expect the bum notes

I wonder if this played a part in her decision to cancel the entire residency? When your whole act is just your voice and you don’t do lots of up-tempo songs with lots of choreography, your voice really does have to be perfect, right? Maybe she’s realised that she’s just not up to it? It’s a shame.

Whoever is picking the leading images at DM HATES her…

”Animated” is often media code for “up.”

It's sad to see but it looks like the Hollyweird lifestyle has sucked all the soul out of her! She looks a shell of her former self (and I don't just mean weight wise) It feels like she is going through the motions because she is being advised to in order to keep her career alive but you can tell her heart's not in it.
I think she really needs a break and if she can't deal with live performances but still wants to create, she will have to release albums without all the live interviews, concerts etc. I'm sure it will still rake in the £££'s for her!

I saw her collect the award. Why does she put on that heavy cockney accent? We all know she can talk normal in that segment from the interview with Oprah. She want to go into acting or something? Lol

She doesn’t act like that in front of her Hollywood pals does she!

I agree. I think with all that weight loss, she also lost all her humility, charisma and humour too. I think her performance on the brits was underwhelming. If you compare the emotion she sang Someone like you with at the Brits in 2011, to this performance, you can see the emotion has gone. ( By the way, you can see how the weight loss has aged her face too in comparison ).

Lorraine and team this morning so far up Adeles a

I didn’t see it today but a few days ago GMB were saying she was going to appear at the Brits. Richard Madeley: “Really? Are we sure she will?” and Richard Arnold said something about “who could forget her 2011 Brits performance”

Well me, I have forgotten it. That Adele was a loooooong time ago. I’m sure that Adele was down to earth and grateful to be invited to the Brits and win awards. Now she is the definition of too big for her boots and forgets that she depends on her loyal fans to stay in with the Hollywood people that Adele probably couldn’t see herself having anything to do with. Because as soon as she’s not relevant and there’s a new star in town…

She looked/seemed very sad last night. Something is off about this entire situation - I hope she's okay!

 

[Minxmonx]

This isn’t a criticism, but you can see how much her face has changed since weight loss and surgery here.

 

[Tatooine_legend1]

Wearing the big diamond on her ring finger is the most cynical attempt to take attention away from the Vegas cancellation and leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

Also, wasn't her relationship on the rocks, then all of a sudden she's engaged.

I read that same comment somewhere else just now. I don't think she enjoys it anymore and wants to call it to quit, I also think she going through the motion and her heart isn't into it.

I used to really like her, but I just can’t take to her since the new album launch and constantly having that everywhere I looked. I was a hit underwhelmed by it too.

She just looked like a bit of an ungrateful cow last night like it was beneath her to be there.

Honestly if she was chocolate she’d eat herself, well as much as she could with the gastric band

 

[Tatooine_legend1]

Once it came out a few years back that she enjoys the LA/Hollywood lifestyle, I knew it was over for her and the fame had properly gone to her head. There's tolerating the lifestyle because you are rich and famous, but enjoying that kind of lifestyle needs a certain mentality.

Has the engagement been confirmed? It wouldn’t surprise me if she just wore the ring on that finger to hopefully make the headlines about a (possible) engagement, rather than about the cancelled Vegas shows?

Yes, that lifestyle is so fake. All shiney happy people on the surface, but all built on wafer thin foundations and insecurities.

 

[Amelia99]

I don’t think she was ever a nice person. I remember way back at the start of her career, she slagged off Take That when they made a comeback. She said something along the lines of she wasn’t interested in has beens. I thought at the time it was an unnecessary, nasty & arrogant thing to say. Looks like she has only got worse with fame.

DeuxMoi posted this but I think it’s
Publicity just to stop everyone talking about the real issues

 

[ClockworkDolly]

What a great way to get people talking about something else. Stick a giant rock on the third finger of her left hand. That will deflect from the Las Vegas duck up!

That is why many of them are addicted to some kind of substance or other.

That may explain the post in the Secret Celeb Gossip thread

I’ve never liked Adele, I cannot pinpoint why, I think her singing voice is whiny and her songs deathly dull and I’ve never understood the adulation of her at all. I never tell anyone IRL as everyone seems to love her?! But further to that, I find her obnoxiously smug. She clearly thinks she looks amazing (and she does look nice, but let’s face it it’s all bought and paid for), and just the bestest of the best. I think her ‘engagement’ is as real as her cheekbones and she now plays at fame, plays the media and plays her fans.
