English singer and songwriter, Adele, has expressed her displeasure over the comments made by some women over her weight loss.
In her Vogue cover story released on Thursday, October 7, the 33-year-old world’s best-selling music artiste said her body was objectified and that women were having the most “brutal discussions” about her significant weight loss.
Adele said, “My body’s been objectified my entire career. It’s not just now. I understand why it’s a shock.”
Some individuals criticised the singer of being “too slim” at the time when she revealed she had shed roughly 100 pounds through exercise over a two-year period, while others said she should not have felt forced to lose weight.
In May 2020, a tweet stated:
“Am I the only one that misses old Adele?! he really didn’t have to lose all that weight. So [sic] already looked so gorgeous and confident Noooo Adele.”

Another post from December 2019, a month after Adele showed off her reduced shape at Drake’s party, read:
“Celebrating Adele’s weight loss is a garbage thing to do for a million reasons. Here are two: 1. It tells your fat friends you think their bodies are a problem to be solved. 2. The weight loss could be the result of physical or mental health struggles. Weird to cheer about!”
Adele, who acknowledged that she was aware that she visually represented many women, remarked that she found she didn’t have any anxiety when she was working out because it was never about reducing weight.
She said:
“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.”
