New body, still shamed: Adele sparks debate on whether she’s ‘too skinny’

There are a growing number of fans seemingly concerned about British pop superstar Adele and her dramatic transformation as new photos of the singer emerged over the weekend.

Adele, who is reportedly vacationing in Anguilla with fellow stars Harry Styles and James Corden, sent social media into a fierce debate as to whether her recent weight loss is ‘healthy’.

The Hello songstress seemed blissful as she took photos with a fan and her family on the beach, but many Twitter users are increasingly worried, calling her new look “too skinnyâ€.

wait adele looks way too skinny here should we get worried? — andrea (@witnessandrea)

“IS THIS ADELE?!?! someone feed her pls she

looks so skinny and not really that healthy …. we should be worrying about her

omg,†one tweet said.

“Wait, Adele looks way too skinny here

should we get worried?†one woman said.

Adele delighted fans a few weeks before posing alongside the Grinch at her Christmas party, but now, with these images, some have argued the singer is under heavy scrutiny despite appearing genuinely happy.

“Adele isn’t defined by her weight,†wrote

one fan. “She can be fat, medium, skinny, or athletic, and still be herself.

Stop trying to define people by their weight.â€

View this post on Instagram We both tried to ruin Christmas but then both our hearts grew! Thank you for coming to my party and making us feel like kids Grinch Ÿ’š Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone xA post shared by Adele (@adele) on Dec 23, 2019 at 11:32am PST

“People made fun of Adele for being overweight and now when she’s skinny, people are still making fun of her and commenting on her body. Dammed if you do and dammed if you don’t. Just live your life how you want it,†another fan commented.

What do you think BUZZ fam? Are you liking Adele’s new look? Tell us in the comments section!
