She's become the face of the beautiful curvy woman, but Adele reportedly wants to lose a few pounds. According to The Sun, Adele has started working out with a personal trainer twice a week and is even taking up pilates.

"Adele has found so much more energy now she's quit smoking. She really wants to get healthier, now that she's halfway there," a source told The Sun. "She had always been curious about taking up pilates but until recently there just hadn't been any time."

Adele did lose weight after her recent vocal cord surgery, but defended herself when fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld called her "a little too fat." She responded: "I've never wanted to look like models on the cover of magazines. I represent the majority of women and I'm very proud of that. I don't want to be some skinny mini with my t*** out. I really don't want to do it and I don't want people confusing what it is that I'm about."

But six Grammy Awards and many photo shoots later, perhaps Adele has had a change of heart? Do you think Adele should slim down, at least for her health? Or is she beautiful the way she is?

    Actually wish I could have picked a BOTH answer. She is definately beautiful and actually might not keep as pretty a face if she looses too much weight but loosing some might be best for her health.

    If she should happen to lose...it should be because of exercise...not because of diet. She looks great as is.

    She is beautiful the way she is but there's a difference between being a a healthy weight and being extremely skinny.
    For example, Raven Symone lost a notable amount of weight but she's not a stick figure.

    If she chooses to lose weight, let her :P

    If she want to be healthier by all means let her do what she wants. But she is still a very beautiful person just the way she is. And not just appearance wise. Probably the best part

    She only said a "few" lbs, not a lot of lbs lol.

    What do you think all your Babe of the weeks do to have those bodies? Fitness doesn't just make someone 95 lbs, if done right it can be used to keep weight and add muscle, or tone ;)

    Those people are pretty rare you know that right? I hardly deal with people who have that image of others. All the girls you post do have curves but I am positive a good many of them do work out. People have the wrong idea when it comes to working out mainly because of the media.

    I think so too, but maybe it's in REAL America that folks don't have all those ideas I am sure those ladies work out quite a bit, lol--you "kind of" also see it here with some of these younger girls posts on the site, they all don't think they are ugly and fat and unpretty, I just think part of that comes from the image the media puts out

    Wish there were an option c) all of the above. I think she is very beautiful and I also think that if she wants to lose weight for her health, then good for her. Twice a week + pilates is a very healthy thing to do. Perhaps health issues gave her a good appreciation for taking care of her health and made her understand that what you eat and do (smoking) *do* have an effect on your health, as well as how you look and feel. there was no indication of unhealthy methods of body reduction or a desire to appear overly thin, so I wish her the best in her *health* goals and hope she stays just as beautiful as she already is (despite media pressures that want to turn everyone into the "fame formula" appearance mode.)

    She is overweight, it's not like she's going anorexic, I think having a healthy weight is important, screw political correctness and people bashing everyone when they think someone needs to lose weight.

    She is beautiful the way she is, but I wouldn't demonize her if she decided that she wants to lose a few pounds. Losing a few pounds also doesn't mean that she won't be curvy or that she'll be a really skinny woman. If she wants to lose some weight, more power to her, I say.

    She has a tendency to gain weight (she knows this better than anybody) and I'm afraid it's genetic which means she's going to need the best of luck as she ages..... so it's not only a matter of how she looks just now.

    I adore Adele and think she is beautiful, but I also think that tightening up her body a little would make her even more beautiful. I don't think she would look good skinny, but stuff like pilates and strength training would firm up and define her curves.
    And improving her physical fitness will help her sing even better than she already does.

    She's already stunning, but she would look even more beautiful if she slimmed down and she would look healthier also.

    Kind of both. I think she's beautiful the way she is, but if she wants to make the effort to lose pounds in order to be healthier, good for her.

    I hope she doesn't lose fans just because she loses weight. Oh, what am I saying? Of course she will. People are selfish.
    "NO ADELE. I want YOU to look the way I WANT YOU TO. Oh. Whoops. Looks like I'm not buying your next album. :|"

    I guess in situations like this it is really a matter of personal opinion concerning beauty. I certainly think curvy is better than boney, but I think she is a little too large for both personal health and beauty.

    She is beautiful the way she is.
    I'm saying this mainly for her health. Extra weight takes years from your life, and it's recommended for people to get at least 150 minutes of exercise per week.
    When I told my mom she was only 23, she was so surprised as my mom thought she looked 30. If she lost a few pounds, she'd probably look and feel younger.
  • HelmetGirl 2012/03/19 22:52:44

    I think Adele looks good the way she is, but if she wants to slim down for better health or just to look a certain way or whatever, then why not? She's still a classic beauty.
