Adele Posts Birthday Pic Showing Drastic Weight Loss, Sparking Yet Another Debate About Weight And Beauty
Adele set fire to the timeline this morning after sharing an Instagram post that highlighted her dramatic weight loss.
Granted, Adele is far away from the camera in the picture, but the singer still looks like a completely different person than the one who put out "Someone Like You" and "Chasing Pavements." Adele's weight has been fodder for jokesters and gossip bloggers since her 2008 debut and in recent years she has slimmed down, prompting both praise and concern from fans, with some worried about a potential eating disorder or otherwise unhealthy weight-loss treatment. Today's picture, posted in commemoration of the singer's 32nd birthday, intensified the discussion, and the singer trended on Twitter through the day.
Many praised the singer's weight loss, calling it a "glow up."

Nothing fatphobic in saying Adele had a glow up.
If she didn't want compliments, she wouldn't have been serving us these hots pics.
Besides what do u pple have against weight loss?
Body positivity twitter really gats to chill.— Adunni Achebe (@_Adadioramma) May 6, 2020
Of course, there was an equal, opposite reaction to the praise, with people saying Adele was always beautiful and wondering if her weight loss was perhaps due to negative factors.
Women get on here all the time and speak about how they were at their thinnest and despite all the compliments they got and how “great” they looked, they were a fucking wreck emotionally

please stop saying Adele had a “glow up” we have no idea what her health was/is like and this is just reinforcing the “skinny ideal” or the concept that the skinnier you get the prettier you get

Of course, there's no confirmation one way or the other what Adele's weight loss was motivated by, which makes all the tweets about it idle speculation. In essence, this tweet by Tom Segura basically sums up the entire situation:
Adele lost a bunch of weight and people started tweeting how great she looks and then a bunch of other people started tweeting that we shouldn't associate losing weight with beauty and nothing summarizes Twitter or 2020 better than that.
