I suffer delusions of grandeur
Nailed oni reckon she's a right filthy minx.

Breathtaking. Surely this deluded cnut employs some sort of publicity bod.Adele is enjoying reaping the rewards from her two massively successful albums to date, but there is apparently one - somewhat predictable - aspect of her new found wealthy lifestyle that she objects to: paying her share of taxes.
"I use the NHS, I can't use public transport any more, doing what I do, I went to state school, I'm mortified to have to pay 50 per cent!," she told Q magazine recently, according to The Sun. "Trains are always late, most state schools are s--- and I've gotta give you like four million quid, are you having a laugh?"
With sales of her 2011 album '21' already double that of her 2008 debut, we should probably avoid being around the North London-born singer when she next meets with her accountant.
"When I got my tax bill in from '19' I was ready to go and buy a gun and randomly open fire," she reported.
Adele joins a long line of multi-millionaire popstars who have balked at coughing up their dues come tax time. U2 have been criticised for shifting their business interests out of Ireland to cut down on their bill, Phil Collins infamously threatened to leave the country if a Labour government upped his income tax, while The Beatles devoted an entire song -- 'Taxman' -- to moaning about making their contribution to government coffers.
I'd take issue with this on the evidence you've provided (I can only do this as I've never heard her before) from those two videos. Half of the time she's talking, not singing, and when she does actually sing, she doesn't seem to be able to hold a note for more than 3 seconds and her vocal range seems to be rather limited also. I'll give you that in what range she does have she sounds fine, but best female vocalist of the past decade?This girl is by far and away the best female vocalist of the last decade.
Wrong on so many levels. She is a good singer even though she's overrated, but is far from being the best of the last decade. People assume if you're commercially successful and have a decent enough voice to boot, you've instantly made it into the hall of fame. I much prefer scouring the depths and pits of soul where the real talent lies rather than the charts, where any old mug gets some sort of recognition.This girl is by far and away the best female vocalist of the last decade.
Why so much hatred?Adele is a fat, annoying, sewer-rat.
Adele is big competition for the title of best female singer of the last decade. She's a great singer but she's also larger-than-life and adds so much weight to her vocals. Her style is a bit too heavy for me sometimes, but her voice can leave me flabbergasted.

Chris was friend-zoned by Adele before she was famousWhy so much hatred?
He couldn't handle it when she went on top. She became too much of a burden after the fame.Why so much hatred?
This.corinne bailey rae has a better voice.
Yeah, that's kind of bullshit. I mean, kudos to her for making it without looking like a supermodel but I think she feels that she has a higher moral standing than thinner people. I mean people shouldn't be so subconscious about their weight to the extent in which they would enter into bulimia but for feck's sake, it's healthy to be thinner. Adele looks like a fecking blimp.The funny thing is, she'll be labled an amazing role model of saying that shite.
Why is there a sudden trend for fat people to think they have some sort of moral high ground and that it's somehow a positive that they don't want to lose any weight? They talk as if it's black or white. "I'm fat, I don't want to be skinny". Ok..... how about you get down to the mysterious inbetween stage we call "A healthy weight".
Ah feck it, lets all make a toast to diabetes.
her "live from from the albert hall" album is brilliant,i love the way she doesn't try to be someone she's not,council estate girl through and through and not ashamed of it,wonderful talent.feck me sideways, I have just taken the time to actually listen a few of her songs and she's bloody amazing. I now understand why she won all those Grammys, she's phenomenal.
Presumably making a shit ton of money.Meh, such a generic song IMO. The feck is Michael from The Wire doing in that video?
