Adele Undergoing Vocal Training, Looking Slimmer, Avoiding Drinking

A month after revealing that she was "super happy" following the operation, Adele is reportedly starting to sing again, albeit in small steps. "She recently started some basic vocal training [but] she's taking it slowly," a source told UsWeekly. "Depending on how her voice builds back up, [she might go] to to this medical vocal academy in Seoul. It sounds extreme, but she wouldn't be the first artist to go there after removing polyps."
This news comes just after Adele tweeted a picture of herself in which she looks happy, healthy and, as many outlets have pointed out, a bit slimmer. "Back on the grind. Hair and makeup did. Merry Christmas!" she wrote.
There has been speculation that Adele would return to the stage during an episode of 'The X Factor' or at the Grammy Awards, where she's up for six statues, but the source said that's unlikely.
That low profile also extends to her plans for a relaxed holiday: "She's not going out raving or drinking. It's going to be really quiet." Perhaps that means she's not enjoying any of her trusty European lagers?
Whether or not this source has its facts straight, one thing is for sure: Adele won't be releasing a follow-up to '21' any time soon. "I imagine I'll be 25 or 26 by the time my next record comes out, as I haven't even thought about my third record yet," she said in a recent Billboard interview. "I'll disappear and come back with a record when it's good enough. There will be no new music until it's good enough and until I'm ready."

I really hate the idea we aren't going to hear any more of her vocal and writing magic for a couple of years,but I am glad she had the operation,quit drinking so much,and lost weight because this all means she will be around and able to perform for many more years.
I am also happy to hear that SHE is in charge of her life and her career,and SHE is the one who will decide when her music is good enough and she feels well enough to put out another album and tour again. She shows an amazing amount of maturity for someone so young.
Still,it's going to be a long wait.
This young Woman of 23 is smarter and Wiser than Most Women her Senior.
I hope she realizes her popularity & accepts a more public position as a Role Model. You can be happy & Beautiful without being rail thin.
And while bar hopping, alcohol is popular with kids, there is a time & place for it. I am glad she has given alcohol and cigarettes up.
Very prudent young Lady. Very humble. She might think of herself as a commoner but her actions speak to her paving a successful path in the world in the music industry.
this is one musician I adore & hope to see & hear more from. I hope she meets the man of her dreams. She deserves it.
News Flash!! ADELE QUIT smoking back in May!! While in the US on tour. She has NOT smoked since! She stopped drinking during tours as well back in April. No surgery...Prob. post surgical affects...After throat surgery you are very limited in what you can eat, drink. She stated very publically she quit drinking Coke, "fizzy drinks", vinegar, tomatoes, citric foods as well for her throat.
Weight loss most likely to do with a better diet, no alcohol.
Looks great!! A natural beauty who is VERY talented.
No need to strip on stage, gimmicks, act like a HO, tattoo her body, use Auto tune, show her **** and A** to sell records like the current faux singers that sound like a goat being strangled.
Unlike these faux singers who cannot read, write their own music ADELE writes her own songs, is learning to produce them, and only requires a microphone. She is a true singer, quite proper and a GREAT musician.
Cannot wait for her to clean up at the Grammy's and Look forward to her next Album and continued success for her.
Quite the role model for young girls and Women.
She barely requires a microphone. She has the most powerful voice on the planet when she cuts lose.
