Naturally, this is Adele we're talking about, it wasn't a stuffy Christmas Greeting, or schmaltzy, or saccharine, or trite, or serious. It was, simply, Adele.
In case you were wondering I'm in my dressing gown eating a Chinese watching Eastenders. Merry bloody Christmas!! X

INNIT!
In her recent interview with TIME Magazine, Adele pointed out the importance of keeping grounded, despite being one of the biggest stars on the planet: "I think it’s really important so that you don’t get f***ed up by everything. It’s important so you stay in touch with yourself. If you lose touch with yourself, no one’s going to want to talk to you or listen to anything you’re f***ing doing. They'll just point at you and laugh. At you, not with you... I'm very self-conscious that I have a kid, and I don’t want him being one of those d***heads, who grows up being, like, 'Driver, driver! I have no clean clothes!' 'Well, have you washed them?' I really don’t want him growing up like that. I’m very conscious of it."

As for other artists who haven't quite kept in touch with themselves, she added: "I feel like some artists - and this isn’t shading any artist, just me trying to come up with my own explanation - the bigger they get, the more horrible they get, and the more unlikable. And I don’t care if you make an amazing album - if I don’t like you, I ain’t getting your record. I don’t want you being played in my house if I think you’re a bastard.”
Coming from the biggest music star on the planet right now, that's quite refreshing! Are you an Adele fan? Do you, like her, revel in festive Eastenders watching?
