London, Feb 14 (IANS) Singer Adele says becoming a mother gave her "purpose" and taught her to feel as though she was "truly living".
Adele took some time out of the music industry to welcome her three-year-old son Angelo, who she has with her partner Simon Konecki, into the world. She says her son makes her feel proud, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
I can't have any other junk in my head to worry about as well. (Angelo) makes me very proud of myself. When I became a parent, I felt like I was truly living. I had a purpose, where before I didn't ...
"My main thing is mum, then it's me, then it's work. I think I had to take the right amount of time off to let people miss me. I just didn't really know what I was going on about. How could I ever try and fool anyone by putting the record out and expect them to get it if I didn't get it? It seemed a bit lazy, Adele told Vogue magazine.
The 27-year-oldalso spoke about her weight loss, saying it has had one bad effect - she spends more money on clothes.
I was trying to get some stamina for my tour, so I lost a bit of weight. Now I fit into normal, off-the-shelf clothes - which is really a big problem for me, she said.
