Adele has ditched the booze.
The 16-time Grammy winner, 35, told fans in attendance at her Vegas residency Saturday that she decided to quit drinking three months ago, adding that she was a “borderline alcoholic” for much of her 20s.
“I finished drinking perhaps like three and a half months ago,” she said during her performance on the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. “I mean, I used to be literally borderline alcoholic for quite a number of my 20s, but I miss it a lot.”
Admitting that “it’s boring” to quit drinking, Adele revealed she also “cut out caffeine” from her day by day routine.
“So enjoy your whiskey sour. I’m very, very jealous,” she told a fan within the audience in a video shared on X.
The singer, who admittedly got “too drunk” with pal Lizzo at this 12 months’s Grammy awards in February, has been open about her relationship with alcohol.
Her fourth studio album titled “30” contains a song called “I Drink Wine” wherein she sings about turning to the bottle in times of hardship.
“After I was a baby / Each thing could blow my mind / Soaking all of it up for fun / But now I only take in wine,” Adele sings within the song, released in 2021.
In Oct. 2021, the mom of 1 told Vogue that lockdown through the COVID pandemic saw her start drinking “earlier and earlier” with each coming day.
“I’ve at all times had a really close relationship with alcohol,” the told the outlet on the time. “I used to be at all times very fascinated by alcohol. It’s what kept my dad from me. So I at all times desired to know what was so great about it.”
She also added that drinking left her more impressionable on what is alleged about her within the media than when she’s not consuming alcohol.
“They descend, and descend, and descend on you, which drives you f–king mad,” she said.
Adele previously revealed that she “stopped drinking” after her divorce from ex-husband Simon Konecki, in addition to her estranged dad Mark Evans’ death in May 2021.
“That’s one wonderful means of really form of attending to know yourself, is just drinking water and being sober as anything,” she told Oprah Winfrey.
