Adele is constantly asked if she would pose for Playboy.
In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the “Someone Like You” hitmaker revealed she is constantly asked whether she would strip off for the men’s magazine.
“I’ve been asked ... so many f***ing times, it’s ridiculous,” she said. “And [do they ask me] because I’m a woman or because I’m fat?”
During the interview, the singer also pondered if her success had anything to do with her plus-sized figure.
“Would I show my body off if I was thinner? Probably not, because my body is mine,” she said.
“But sometimes I'm curious to know if I would have been as successful if I wasn't plus-size. I think I remind everyone of themselves.
“Not saying everyone is my size, but it's relatable because I'm not perfect, and I think a lot of people are portrayed as perfect, unreachable and untouchable.”
Nevertheless, the 27-year-old is taking a more healthy approach to life these days. She has quit smoking, and has cut down her alcohol intake to one drink a day.
Adele has enjoyed a tremendous comeback, with her single ‘Hello’ shooting up the charts. The accompanying music video has already been viewed over 100-million times online just five days after it was released.
She has, however, faced a bit of a backlash from some fans who claim her song is a rip-off of the Tom Waits song Martha.
Producer Greg Kurstin, who worked with Adele on the new song, helped fuel that theory by claiming that Adele was inspired by the American artist.
“She didn't want to just go through and write a pop song with any particular formula. We talked about Tom Waits and different storytellers like that,” he said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
“I think that was the idea, that we wanted to do something that was very honest about where she was at right now, and she wanted to do something that was real and believable.”
