Is Adele Going To Be the New Bond Girl?

It’s been reported around the world that superstar and Divabetic fan favortie,  Adele is singing the new Bond theme, but there’s no official confirmation.

So far there’s been on word from Sony Pictures, which distribute the Bond movies, or Eon Productions, the company in charge of Bond, despite the 23rd Bond film, Skyfall, due for release on 26 October 2012.

The latest from Sony regarding Adele singing the theme is a simple, “nothing confirmed, no comment.”

Adele herself dropped a hint during an interview on Jonathan Ross’ chat show on ITV1 in September 2011.

“I’m going back in the studio in November, fingers crossed,” Adele told Ross.

“Well this is actually a theme, what I’ve got to do for, um… Wow. That’s really giving something away isn’t it?”

When Ross then hummed the 007 theme music, Adele laughed and said, ‘No’ – but that could have been a nervous reaction.

The recording could have stalled last year as it was in November 2011 that Adele underwent throat surgery in America for a haemorrhaged vocal chord.

Then in April 2012, Adele told French radio station NRJ that she will have a new single out by the end of this year, but that an album was still two years away.

Releasing a one-off single, the Bond theme, would clearly fit that schedule.

Will Adele Need Artificial Vocal Chords?

A team of medical experts is on the verge of  creating artificial vocal cords, which would not only benefit singers, but also cancer patients and those who have lost their voices to aging or disease.

A group of patients, including famous singers such as Steven Tyler, Julie Andrews and Roger Daltrey, have even gone so far as to create a non-profit fundraising organization called The Voice Health Institute, founded in Boston in 2003, which supports the development of the artificial cords.

Steven Zeitels, one of the most renowned vocal surgeons in the world and one of the leading researchers on the project told HuffPost that the cords are made of a “highly elastic gel,” which flutters just like healthy vocal cords do. He said earlier tests have been successful and that his team could begin trials on cancer patients as early as next year.

“Soon, this could just be an office procedure,” Zeitels predicted. “An injection. You’d be done in 15 minutes.”

It may still be a few years before artificial cords can help singers. Repairing a hoarse voice damaged by years of overuse is much easier than repairing the voice of a belting singer with a multi-octave range, Zeitels said. But as the technology of the cords improves, they will be able to stretch further and work harder.

“Once you prove a human being can be restored, then this will become such a valuable tool to society,” said Zeitels. “This will take lost voices and everything they would have done with their voice, and let them recontribute again.”

Let Mr. Divabetic help to inspire you overcome aversions to fruits and vegetables you think you don’t like, and even learn to love them with his new food game, Serve, Taste or Trash.

Katy Perry Confesses How She’s Feels About Adele

Divabetic’s July Diabetes Roundtable inspiration, Katy Perry has revealed that she’s over the moon for British singer Adele, who is pregnant with her first child.

With TV shows like The Real Housewives portraying the catty side of women’s friendships with other women, we’re thankful to share that these two celebrity women encourage and support each other.

Adele  announced earlier this year that she was expecting a baby with her boyfriend Simon Konecki and now the ‘California Gurls’ singer has revealed that she’s ecstatic about the baby news.

The ‘Someone Like You’ singer featured in Katy Perry’s recent film ‘Katy Perry: Part Of Me 3D’, where Adele has said some good things about the US star.

OK magazine quotes Perry as saying: “I love the fact that she’s going to have a baby. She’s such a good woman.”

She also added: “And she was really nice in my movie, saying nice things about me. I’ve always loved her.”

What are you eating this summer? The happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic talks to everyday people about their healthy appetites at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, PA.

How Adele Managed To Hide Her Pregnancy

British superstar, Adele surprised fans when she revealed that she’s pregnant; they got a double dose of shock when reports revealed that she’ll give birth in just two months.

How did Adele manage to keep her baby news hidden for the last seven months?

The 24-year-old has recently been spotted out and about — even making public appearances — but has slyly avoided press and dodged photographers.

When the singer attended the Ivor Novello Awards in May, she was almost five months pregnant, a time when many expectant moms start to show. But the Someone Like You star managed to hide her and boyfriend Simon Konecki’s happy news by sneaking into the awards late, wearing loose clothing, and refusing to pose for pictures or talk to the media.

Adele’s very near due date also means the singer was actually pregnant when she performed at this year’s Grammy Awards.

Now Adele‘s estranged father has reached out to the soul star after learning she is pregnant, insisting he wants “more than anything” to be part of her life as she becomes a mother.

The Grammy-winning singer’s dad Mark Evans, who split from Adele’s mother Penny when the star was just three years old, heard the news from his own mother and he has now urged his daughter to consider a reconciliation.

Unfortunately Evans will have a hard time convincing Adele to reconcile – she previously admitted she was angry at her estranged father for airing his heart ache in the press.

She told British Vogue magazine, “It blows my mind. ‘I love her so much.’ Really? Why are you telling me that through a newspaper? If I ever see him I will spit in his face”.

What are you and your family eating this summer? The happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic talks to everyday people about their healthy appetites at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, PA.

Adele Admits To Spanx Addiction

Adele performed live for the TV special“Adele Live in London”  and sat down with Today anchor Matt Lauer for an exclusive interview.

The 24-year-old songbird talked about taking home six awards at this years Grammys, and even discussed her ensemble from the big night. Adele admited to Matt that she wore FOUR pairs of Spanx underneath. FOUR. One, two, three, FOUR.

Don’t get me wrong, We love a good pair of Spanx or Lipo In A Box - the way that they smooth everything over and make your tush looked toned — it’s a dream. However, four pairs? Under ONE dress? Don’t you think that’s a tad bit excessive?

I mean, Kudos to Adele. To be real, she looked fab that night — and the plethora of Spanx did get the singer a lot of press for a possible “slim down.”

Adele Should Be Singing In No Time

Divabetic: Adele's Speedy Recovery

Good news Adele fans!!! Adelehas undergone surgery to repair her damageed vocal chords and is said to be recovering nicely, accourding to Rolling Stone.

This condition is typically the result of unstable blood vessels in the vocal cord that can rupture,” the hospital said, adding that her doctor ” expects Adele to make a full recovery from her laser maicrosurgery.”

Adele, one of the biggest new stars in music, has been forced to cancel her upcoming 10 city tour because of a hemorrhage into her vocal cord.

In a statement that was posted on her website, Adele said she was “truly devastated and annoyed,” and she apologized to her fans. We’ll just have to keep playing her monster hit song ‘Rolling In The Deep’ until she gets better!!

Adele Ain’t Moving BUT We Are!

Over the 4th of July weekend we heard Adele’s #1 smash, Rolling In The Deep, about a thousand times. Its a great song and great fun to dance to but unfortunately we don’t feel the same way about  the song’s video. Our #1 reason for disliking the video is that Adele just sits in a chair and doesn’t move. Now no one’s expecting her to be a card carrying member of Janet’s ‘Rhythm Nation’ but couldn’t she do more than tap her foot? (We bet Beyonce burns more calories just combing her hair!)  Sure, the song’s a wonderful vocal workout but if you’re  like us – you need to move more than your lips to stay in shape.

That’s why Divabetic’s teaming up with friendly fitness instructors aka ‘Movers and Shakers’ like Katherine Adamenko. Our goal is to show you  simple ways to fit more physical activity into your day (whether you’re sitting (!) or standing) without having to go to the gym.

Can you imagine the amount of calories Adele would have burned off during this video  if she was using a simple pair of hand weights?!!!! For more fun ‘Everyday Diva’ fitness tips visit our website: divabetic.org.  By the way, we hope Adele’s album ’21′ sits on the top of the pop charts for a long time – IT’S GREAT!!!
