I think somewhere in her mind she will always be the fat little girl whose dad didn’t love her and abandoned her...no matter how many mansions she buys in California.
I watched the Oprah gig. Adele claims she is in a good space mentally blah blah blah. I dont believe it.
Scars run deep and no matter how hard you try they can rip open in unexpected ways.
This gig was a fabulous opportunity for her to continue a legacy and make a fortune for her son. She has blown it.
Her music never resonated with me but I do respect her vocals. Simplicity would probably be best — she doesn’t need all the effects and frills.
But I understand how stressed out she may be. Probably a major perfectionist in terms of her aesthetic vision. Not fun to be under so much pressure and have anything less than what you see as best to settle for.
