Zangeres Adele is razend populair vanwege haar krachtige stem en haar gevoelige persoonlijkheid. Ze brak records, won prijzen en staat zelfs op de TIMES Magazine lijst van meest invloedrijke personen ter wereld. Maar wie is Adele? Wat zijn de turbulente waarheden achter haar hartverscheurende melodieën? Adele is een onwaarschijnlijke popidool; haar uiterlijk is niet conform de hedendaagse celebrity-maatstaven, ze is bloednerveus als ze het podium op moet en soms zo depri dat ze een optreden gewoon afzegt. Celebrity-biograaf Chas Newkey-Burden schreef met Adele, het verhaal een ontroerend portret van groot artiest én van een gewoon, hardwerkend meisje

With original interviews and revealing anecdotes this remarkably well- researched biography traces the turbulent life of the tattooed wonder from her childhood pranks, through stage school and her early music to the global legend she will be always remembered as.

The compelling life story of the Grammy-winning soul singer Adele's soulful voice, catchy hits, and vulnerable personality have won her critical acclaim and huge popularity. She has topped the charts in 18 countries--but who is she? What is the truth of the tempestuous life that has so influenced her heartbreaking tracks? How did she overcome the challenges that threatened to derail her career? This compelling book traces her story from her childhood in London, where she began singing at the age of four. During her teenage years she wrote her own music and attended the BRIT school, alongside the likes of Leona Lewis. After posting demos on the MySpace website she earned a record deal and quickly captured hearts. Adele remains an unlikely icon. Her looks are unusual in a formulaic world of celebrity image, she suffers badly with pre-stage nerves, and she once canceled a crucial promotional trip to the U.S. because she felt too down to travel. This is a full, unflinching portrait of a genuine talent and inspiring, uncompromising woman--the curvy girl-next-door who conquered the world.
