Chasing pavements of success with singer Adele
Soul/Jazz singer explains road to stardom
By Shan

"I've got no problem explaining what my lyrics are about," ADELE says. "I really like poetry: I'm not very good at reading it, but I love writing it. Singers like Jill Scott and Karen Dalton are amazing; proper poets." Alluring sounds of melody, Born  Adele Laurie Blue Adkins in South London in a single parent home she uncovers how her well respected singing career all began. "As soon as I got a microphone in my hand, when I was about 14, I realized I wanted to do this," she says. "Most people don't like the way their voice sounds when it's recorded. I was just so excited by the whole thing that I wasn't bothered what it sounded like." If you've never heard of Adele I strongly suggest you listen to her music. With admirable number 1 singles like "Rolling in the deep" and "Chasing Pavements" Adele has set the bar very high as a new singer. She speaks on the mumbo-jumbo of conforming to the ideal female singer music artist and isn't please one bit!  ‘I’ve always been a size 14-16, and been fine with it,’ Adele told The Times. ‘I would only lose weight if it affected my health or sex life, which it doesn’t.’ TheFIGURE is overhelmed to hear that she is proud of her fullness. ‘People are starting to go on about my weight but I’m not going to change my size because they don’t like the way I look. They can f**k off. Breaking the mold and setting herself a part from not only music but fashionable character! TheFIGURE would like to wish singer Adele the best of success.

Meagan Good Features "Granny Panties" Exclusive!

"Granny Panties" EXCLUSIVE by Shan

Vicky doesn't want to reveal these secrets!


Covering our secrets comfortably, TheFIGURE has an all new outlook on how the world should view "Granny Panties". For many women, comfort outweighs the sexy". No more thongs and G-strings. In fact, boy shorts also known as "Booty shorts"  are the most popular undergarment for women and men alike. Coloring themselves in feminine designs hoping to make Hanes see it 'Her Way' and to carry the 'Fruits' of her loom. There's absolutely nothing embarrassing about "Granny Panties". Urban Dictionary defines Granny Panties (Noun) :  Large, often frilly underpants still rocked by the aging beauties of the Greatest Generation. When worn properly, they hold in a woman's paunch, helping to streamline the figure (and, by that measure, to accentuate the bosom) Here at TheFIGURE we model it differently! If it has more than a inch of fabric that doesn't necessarily mean they belong to granny or that its laundry day. We all have it: fullness comes in all figures, flaunt it! Be comfortable in your fabric!
