So what if it's the truth? Do we go around pointing out everyone's flaws because it's 'the truth?" I'm surprised at how many people believe that's a valid excuse to say certain things.
Frankly, health issues are between the individual and their doctor. I think it's pretty common knowledge that being overweight can have health issues, nobody is denying that. But calling someone fat in a negative way is not helping the issue or doing anyone any good. A segment on Dr. Oz about weight is the mature way to bring awareness to the problem without putting anyone down. A fashion designer calling someone a little too fat is not the right way to getting the message about 'health' out.

Exactly! Enough with the excuses. His comment should not spark a debate about health because it wasn't meant to show concern for Adele. It was meant to be mean. He probably thought he was being cute or funny. Some people just don't know what it is to be respectful and have manners.
Adele may be "fat" according to arrogant & obnoxious Kaiser Karl,
but she has a voice that he will never have.. skinny, thin, fat or heavy
and personally do think that Karl is not happy within himself the way Adele is
brava to you Adele!!

Let's be honest here - being called skinny is not nearly as insulting as being called fat as much as people like to think it is.
I'm a huge fan of Adele. But, fame has a way of making MANY stars back peddle when it comes to weight. They all say "Oh, I'm happy just the way I am...". Then, give it a few months or years and look who is dropping serious pounds to fit into the 'mold'.
I've only seen one actress say (in so many words), she'd be lying if she said she was happy fat. That was Octavia Spencer. For her she said, it's a matter of health.

you are allowed to change your mind
maybe they were just fine with their figures but being told constantly they're not good enough eventually instilled some self doubt
She will lose the weight when she is ready
Didn't Jennifer Hudson proclaim to love her curves too at one point?
I may have bought that he was so concerned about her health if he mentioned her smoking habit. That probably did her voice in worse than anything else she put in her mouth.
I agree, (Star Jones, Monique, J-Hud, Raven Symone all back-peddled). But I just don't see Adele as the type. She truly seems happy with herself and I think she will continue to sell records whether she loses weight or not.
I mean, what if she is really healthy though? My doctors marvel at the fact that I have no issues with cholesteral, diabetes....nothing, execept having extra weight. Meanwhile I have peers way smaller than me who have health issues. That's a whole different topic, but you know what i'm saying...
