She recently revealed this during a recent interview, and the world has been reacting.
According to her, the fact that her body was objectified and women were the ones having the most brutal conversations about her dramatic weight loss was very uncomfortable.
Adele added that she only wanted to make her body physically strong so she can make her emotions and my mind physically strong in the future.
Her words, “I understand why some women especially were hurt. Visually I represented a lot of women. But I’m still the same person.”
“And the worst part of the whole thing was that the most brutal conversations were being had by other women about my body. I was very f–king disappointed with that. That hurt my feelings.”
“It became my time. I realized that when I was working out, I didn’t have any anxiety. It was never about losing weight.”
“I thought, If I can make my body physically strong, and I can feel that and see that, then maybe one day I can make my emotions and my mind physically strong.”
Amazing.
