You are lovely but Please enunciate dear. What on earth is a "sky foal in a crumb bowl"?

Or am I just turning into my mum? shock

Her first ever Brit speech was disgustingly rude. All about how she knew she was getting it ages ago and couldn't get excited. No thank you, no nothing.

JambalayaCodfishPie Thu 21-Feb-13 14:12:56

And for clarity, I don't like her singing/songs either. grin

NoelHeadbands Thu 21-Feb-13 14:13:21

I don't even like her singing to be honest

NoelHeadbands Thu 21-Feb-13 14:14:24

Her singing voice makes my ears sad and scared

Alibabaandthe40nappies Thu 21-Feb-13 14:14:26

I would question the 'stupid' tag.

Anyone of her age, who has had the success she has, without conforming to the celebrity norms cannot be called stupid.

I would far rather see her winning awards than manufactured shite One Direction.

Hesterton Thu 21-Feb-13 14:20:31

that's what makes it so utterly suitable for the film, ectremepie. Tosh for tosh.

Jelly15 Thu 21-Feb-13 14:21:23

She came into our local Little Chef last yer and charmed all the staff with the down to earthness. I am not a big fan of her music thought and I hate Skyfall.

MrsKoala Thu 21-Feb-13 14:25:19

I thought she was born in tottenham and lived in west Norwood? So therefor not a cockney. I am also from London and speak nothing like that!

whatkungfuthat Thu 21-Feb-13 14:38:33

Its all an MOR mess afaic

Narked Thu 21-Feb-13 14:43:29

She has a good voice. She sings in (her own) accent. What's the problem?

LetsFaceTheMusicAndDance Thu 21-Feb-13 14:45:33

I do think she has an amazing voice though I'm not much into her brand of misery-song. It'll be interseting to see what she can do now she's a happier bunny.

slimshady Thu 21-Feb-13 14:47:21

Good voice but she hams up that accent big style.

KateUnrulyBush Thu 21-Feb-13 14:55:18

I thought it was

Skyfall....
Apple crumble...

Is it not?

<disappointed>

HoraceHorseface Thu 21-Feb-13 15:27:37

Its a shame the Brits weren't important enough to attend AND tell us all too.

peanutMD Thu 21-Feb-13 15:31:23

Dear Adele,

Please seek urgent counselling and get over your bloody ex so that you are shut table to shut the hell up about how bad you are hurting/moving on because quite frankly its bizarre stalker behaviour.

Many thanks

<hugs Noel> there, there

carameldecaflatte Thu 21-Feb-13 17:13:48

Gosh, it's all got a bit serious hasn't it?

How about the pretenders? Never understood a word but tried my best to sing along.

specialsubject Thu 21-Feb-13 17:55:26

she's a good singer but 'Skyfall' is real Emperor's new clothes. Whoever rhymed 'Skyfall' and 'Crumble' should be....well, not shot but you know what I mean.

we laughed at ABC when they did this in the 1980s. We should be laughing now, not giving out awards.

LaQueen Thu 21-Feb-13 18:00:03

Rhyming Skyfall with Crumble is probably the best you can do, when you only have a working vocabulary of 327 words.

SassySpice Thu 21-Feb-13 18:04:29

I think she could have been at The Brits if she really wanted to, but because of last year it was her giving payback.

Pmsl at you lot bitching about a 24 year old who has sold 25 million copies of her second album worldwide.

McBalls Thu 21-Feb-13 18:35:59

Quite, mintyy.

She's massively successful, rich, young, talented, has a yummy new baby...

I hope she would just snigger at this thread.

I like a few of her songs, but Skyfall is fucking awful. I thought that she was singing about Scafell until I realised it was for the film!

florry88 Thu 21-Feb-13 19:56:32

I like the song and some of her others, I dont know her so I cant comment if shes nice or thick or whatever but the first post and some others made me laugh.
