Adele is enjoying reaping the rewards from her two massively successful albums to date, but there is apparently one - somewhat predictable - aspect of her new found wealthy lifestyle that she objects to: paying her share of taxes.
"I use the NHS, I can't use public transport any more, doing what I do, I went to state school, I'm mortified to have to pay 50 per cent!," she told Q magazine recently, according to The Sun. "Trains are always late, most state schools are s--- and I've gotta give you like four million quid, are you having a laugh?"
With sales of her 2011 album '21' already double that of her 2008 debut, we should probably avoid being around the North London-born singer when she next meets with her accountant.
"When I got my tax bill in from '19' I was ready to go and buy a gun and randomly open fire," she reported.
Adele joins a long line of multi-millionaire popstars who have balked at coughing up their dues come tax time. U2 have been criticised for shifting their business interests out of Ireland to cut down on their bill, Phil Collins infamously threatened to leave the country if a Labour government upped his income tax, while The Beatles devoted an entire song -- 'Taxman' -- to moaning about making their contribution to government coffers.
This girl is by far and away the best female vocalist of the last decade.

Adele is a fat, annoying, sewer-rat.
Adele is big competition for the title of best female singer of the last decade. She's a great singer but she's also larger-than-life and adds so much weight to her vocals. Her style is a bit too heavy for me sometimes, but her voice can leave me flabbergasted.

Why so much hatred?

corinne bailey rae has a better voice.
The funny thing is, she'll be labled an amazing role model of saying that shite.
Why is there a sudden trend for fat people to think they have some sort of moral high ground and that it's somehow a positive that they don't want to lose any weight? They talk as if it's black or white. "I'm fat, I don't want to be skinny". Ok..... how about you get down to the mysterious inbetween stage we call "A healthy weight".
Ah feck it, lets all make a toast to diabetes.
feck me sideways, I have just taken the time to actually listen a few of her songs and she's bloody amazing. I now understand why she won all those Grammys, she's phenomenal.
Meh, such a generic song IMO. The feck is Michael from The Wire doing in that video?
