The singer is set to release her first single in years next week.

The Grammy-winner opened up about losing weight on her Vogue cover story published Thursday and the comments she’s been receiving ever since.

“My body’s been objectified my entire career… It’s not just now. I understand why it’s a shock,” she began.

Adele uncovered in 2020 that she had shed around 100 pounds subsequent to working out over a two-year time span. “The gym became my time. I realized that when I was working out, I didn’t have any anxiety. It was never about losing weight”

She added, “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.”

The British singer also shared how she finds herself two to three times a day, starting with a weightlifting session in the morning, hiking or boxing midday and ending with cardio.

Notwithstanding, some people accused the singer of looking too thin at the time, while others commented she ought not have felt forced to get in shape.

“I understand why some women especially were hurt. Visually I represented a lot of women. But I’m still the same person,” she included in her statement on American Vogue.

“And the worst part of the whole thing was that the most brutal conversations were being had by other women about my body,” she added. “I was very f–king disappointed with that. That hurt my feelings.”

Besides, she lets British Vogue know that her change was rarely a major mystery. Adele simply didn’t share the interaction online in light of the fact that she doesn’t think that it is entrancing, the manner in which the general population does.

“People are shocked because I didn’t share my ‘journey,'” she explains. “They’re used to people documenting everything on Instagram, and most people in my position would get a big deal with a diet brand. I couldn’t give a flying f–k.”

Adele covers both the November issues of American and British Vogues.

Reactions to Adele Talks About Her Weight Loss Journey

Adele’s return being (not so subtly) framed around her weight loss reinforces that no matter how talented you are, you social capital will always be greater if you’re thinner. People now care about her outfits, makeup etc in a way they didn’t before. Her celebrity is magnified

@_FionaK_

I just know y’all are gonna want to talk about Adele’s weight loss and how pretty she is now and how proud of her you are and I’m already so annoyed

@stinkyposeykt

To all of the people that are still pressed over Adele’s weight loss, this is from her recent interview, get your facts straight, it was never about losing weight. Adele is not responsible for your goddamn insecurities.

@clownforadelex

pretty privilege is so real.. adele has ALWAYS been it, but everyone started treating her so much better after the weight loss & it’s so weird.. she’s always been beautiful and deserves the hype

@kayw0rld

TW / weight it’s mad to me that we celebrate adele’s weight loss … as if working out two to three times a day is healthy????? she was always stunning and i hate that we reinforced this idea that she’s more stunning now.

@lilithsting

It's hard to read the commentary about Adele's body and weight loss, so I will simply say that she was and is absolutely stunning and her talent is undeniable.

@YasmineHachimi

Adele pre weight loss was beautiful and Adele post weight loss is beautiful too. I’m so sorry everyone struggling with weight or EDs has to read endless praise saying she looks “better” because she got thinner. We can’t keep congratulating weight loss like this - it’s SO harmful.

@EmilyJBashforth

Just saw a tweet about Adele’s weight loss and how it’s magnified her celebrity status and social currency and I am not in the mood to engage. We fucked with her music through diff times of her life. She’s let the media in now, she feels good, and we will stick by this.

@Asadimma

No but really, Adele's weight loss is amazing. Shows what happens when you're motivated to turn a million into multimillions, and you can afford trainers and nutritionists.

@GhostDisco91

Y’all really celebrated Adele’s weight loss knowing she had to have developed some type of issue and now she’s admitting to having an addiction to working out (like most ppl with their body image issues do) but HEYYYY she’s skinny am I rite
