She said, “I’ve never wanted to look like models on the cover of magazines. I represent the majority of women and I’m very proudof that.”

She continued, "No matter what you look like, I think the key is to first of all be happy with yourself and if you want to try and improve things that you don't like about yourself, then do them after you kind of appreciate yourself."

Adele’s healthy attitude toward bodyimage stems from a special person in her life, her mother. “I have never beeninsecure, ever, about how I look, about what I want to do with myself,” she admitted back in 2009. “My mum told me to only ever do things for myself, not forothers.”
