It’s a mystery that’s been baffling her fans: why has singer Adele failed to release any new material for almost three years?
Now it’s been revealed that the 26-year-old’s smoking habit is one of the reasons she has been kept out of the studio — and she has turned to hypnotherapy to save her career.
Adele lost her voice completely in 2011, cancelled shows, had surgery and was told by doctors to quit smoking or face the end of her career. Now she has had a £295 (Dh1,697) session with Harley Street hypnotist Susan Hepburn in an attempt to give up for good.
A source said: “Adele has tried to quit, but the cravings kept getting the better of her. She wants to get back in the studio.” Her last performance was at the 2013 Academy Awards. She has said: “If I wasn’t a singer I would still be smoking 25-a-day. It’s my favourite thing to do.”
