It really annoys me when guys say "yeah.. adele is fat" (referring to the singer Adele), I think she's a size 14-16 (UK)? I think she looks lovely and not fat at all, just very curvy in a good way. Just like sophie dahl used to be. Thoughts?

    Adele is lovely, and a spectacular singer, but yes, she is fat.

    I don't like to use the word 'fat' since it hurts peoples feelings...but yes, I think Adele is obese. She is still very beautiful though. I also love that she doesn't seem to give a damn if anyone thinks she's fat. Nothing is sexier than all that confidence

    Too funny! Just as I read the title of this thread an Adele song started playing on the television.

    I suppose it depends upon your definition of fat. From a medical standpoint she is indeed obese, no question. Morbidly obese? No.

    ^ True. I think she's beautiful and it's extremely attractive that she is so confident in herself and doesn't care what people think. But I think from a fitness perspective, she is obese and appears to have a high body fat percentage.

    She has a great voice and I do like some of her music, but yes she is overweight.

    yes i agree that she is over the weight she should be but i think she carries it well and she could be a lot worse. i just don't like that she's called fat. i don't like anyone being called fat.

    I agree with sleepytexan. She's beautiful and talented, and confident in her weight, but yes, she is fat. A size 14-16 is quite big, any bigger is obese and a health risk according to a lot of people in the health field.

    Why does it bother you that guys say that? Are you bigger than her or the same size, and therefore get offended by their comments? I know I'd be hurt if they said that about someone roughly my size and pretended like it shouldn't offend me... :/

    Reality is reality, and there is nothing wrong with the word fat. At the moment I am indeed fat. It isn't a dirty word. Maybe some people need to toughen up and stop having their feelings hurt so easily.

    People will call others whatever they want. Don't let it bother you. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there that think she's ugly or a bad singer as well. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

    I'd say she's average.... which is a little overweight. She's beautiful and amazingly talented, but overweight. It's far from the first word I'd use to describe her, though.

    I think she's very talented and beautiful, but also somewhat fat, yes. Not in a negative way, it is what it is and it's her choice.

    She's fat and she knows it, she said it herself she makes music for the ears not for the eyes.

    No point beating around the bush, you are what you are.........unless you want to change.

    Wellll when I fry bacon I love to save the fat so I can fry more food. I don't think overweight people look like bacon grease so I don't usually call them fat.

    This but don't think she's as talented as other singers like Norah Jones or Amy Lee.

    You mad?

    I also think she's fat.

    She has amazing talent regardless of what label people throw at her. I think she's beautiful and I also think people have way too many negative opinions about others.

    Yes, Adele is definitely fat/obese/large, whatever you want to call her. It has no effect on her musical talent, but it's true.

    I never even think about that kind of stuff. She has a beautiful voice but yes, technically she is overweight/obese.
