Adele Reveals Why Amy Winehouse Made Her ‘Frightened’ of Fame

Unfortunately they didn’t temporarily change their name to Rolling in the Deep magazine, which would have been pretty great, in my opinion.

Putting that little disappointment aside for a moment, allow me to say that I think the cover is gorgeous.

Before she found out she was pregnant she told Rolling Stone how isolated she felt and how she was struggling with the pressure of being in such high demand. I don’t like looking in the mirror.

“He’s so supportive”, she said of her partner. Treat yourself later by reading the full profile on Rolling Stone with an Adele amaretto sour in hand, but for now, here are 15 quotes from the spread to remind us that the voice behind “Hello” is just as endearing as ever.

Come on, people. Let’s not be naive. She clearly has product on. It’s lighter than a red carpet look, but that is not a bare face. “I’ve heard about a squad“, she quips.

And Adele, who admits celebrity is so unreal she often thinks she’s being duped, hasn’t yet ventured into the world of celebrity squads (her pre-19 friends are more than she needs, she says), but she’s still intrigued by the idea of cultivating her own super-group. Below, other highlights from her in-depth profile with the mag. On being a mother to 3-year-old Angelo: “I’m a mom and I’m in a very serious relationship, so it’s never going to be just me again”.

Adele, 27, has reportedly given Beyonce one bit of advice that she has adopted in her life to keep her relationship happy and healthy.

I’m going to get so much fucking grief: ‘Why is it called 25 when you’re not 25?’

On fame: “People think I hate being famous, and I don’t”.

“I’d rather not be the person that everyone gets pitted against”, Adele says, after her interviewer notes that a few critics hold her up as an exemplar in a pop landscape littered with crasser artists like Miley Cyrus. But she does know about the term squad, coined thanks to Taylor Swift. I’m really frightened of it. I think it’s really toxic, and I think it’s really easy to be dragged into it. Watching Amy [Winehouse] deteriorate is one of the reasons I’m a bit frightened. “And is that because I’m a woman or because I’m fat?”

“Would I show my body off if I was thinner?”

The 27-year-old shared the news about her latest shoot by posting a snap of the image to her Instagram account on Tuesday, captioning the image with, “RS X”. Adele could have just stepped out of the shower, rocking wet, slicked back hair and wrapping up in a fluffy dressing gown.

I’m just f*cking waiting for Frank f*cking Ocean to come out with his album.
