This A list foreign born singer might be a one hit album wonder. A monster one hit album to be sure, but still just one. Apparently years of chain smoking has caused the still very young singer problems with her vocal cords and recording sessions have not gone well or been too painful for her to sing longer than a few minutes at a time.
Adele?
ReplyDeleteLorde?
ReplyDeleteAdele has 2 albums and a 3rd coming out
ReplyDeleteAdele smokes. Not sure about Lourde
ReplyDeleteJessie j
ReplyDeleteAdele is the one with the vocal chord issues right?
ReplyDeleteYeah, Adele has had vocal issues, and she has only had one hit album, which was a huge hit.
ReplyDeleteI first thought Lourde, but isn't she only 17? Is that old enough to have "years" of smoking behind you?
ReplyDeleteAdele has had two very successful albums so she's not a one album wonder.
ReplyDeleteor Feist--she hasn't released anything in forever
ReplyDeleteAdele had 2 hit albums--
Supposed to be Adele.
ReplyDeleteAdele needed a break for two reasons—throat surgery and pregnancy. Following microsurgery on a damaged vocal cord in 2011, she was advised to quit smoking, but Adele said that smoking was her favorite thing to do in the world.
jinx @ ducky
ReplyDeleteNo way it is Lorde
Duffy
ReplyDeleteRockferry was the best selling album 2008/Winn Grammy for best popvocal/released an alb to no notice 2009/ took extended hiatus 2011
Deletewell if it is Adele she is an idiot to throw it all away and she gets everything she deserves (and I am a smoker!).
ReplyDeleteI really think if it came down to it adele would quit smoking to save her voice.
Deleteor Lilo---recording Confessions of a Broken Heart part 2! ; )
ReplyDeleteIf this is Adele, I think Enty's descriptors are WAY the hell off.
ReplyDelete"..one hit album wonder"? That's just stupid, right there. Stew to the pid.
@Kno, you're not wrong.
ReplyDeleteI think the reference is to her winning six Grammy awards in one night, and E never found out she made more music.
Feist is 38.
ReplyDelete@7, Ha! And how about that James Bond gig? Everybody gets one with their first album, Right?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Adele. The first album was no where near the hit the second was was.
ReplyDeleteI though she sounded very rough at the Oscars.
I can't find pics of Jessie J smoking. I wonder how many times Do It Like A Dude has been played on repeat in my iTunes library. Someday, when I open my strip club, I'm using it for a huge production number. (read as - never going to happen =\)
ReplyDeleteJoss Stone?
ReplyDeleteIt may be Adele, because look at how Enty describes Fiona Apple, who has had 5 successful albums. The Letter listing is just stupid.
ReplyDeleteOh Adele, take care of yourself. I love you!
Hope it isnt adele. Her voice is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'd think if I had to give up my voice or smoking especially for her child, smoking would be a goner.
ReplyDeleteServes whoever this is right.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope it is Adele or Lorde.
Oh no...Adele. Are the cancer sticks really worth your billion dollar career?
ReplyDeleteA singer shouldn't let the dick go past her tonsils, no matter how good the track is.
ReplyDeleteSome people get fat after quitting.
ReplyDeleteWow Adele loves smoking more than singing?
ReplyDeleteThose Brits are crazy about their fags. Slang for cigarette.
I have Duffy's album Rockferry loved it and wondered what happened to her.
Could very well be Adele. First album was not the big hit that the second one was, and the second one only really had "Rolling In The Deep" as a first single to thank for that. Everything else was "wahh" and blah. Whoever stated above that she had a rough Oscar performance was right. Completely lackluster. It looked ridiculous that she was so acclaimed and then right after Jennifer Hudson (who I don't particularly care for, either) came out and brought the house DOWN with amazing powerhouse vocals. Adele's voice isn't nearly as great as everyone has been brainwashed to believe and it was SUPER obvious that night. Great personality, I'm sure...it just irritates me how her voice is so revered. Nowhere near as good a singer, writer or producer as Amy Winehouse, even.
ReplyDeleteI have problems with my vocal cords and I have smoked a couple cigarrettes, about five cigars and about ten joints in my life. She is smart for keeping what makes her happy instead of changing it for something not knowing for sure the source of her pain.
ReplyDeleteIt sucks if this is Adele, her voice is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAs for Duffy, I've read rumors of heroin addiction, also on this site.
Adele
ReplyDeleteIf Lorde I think the description would have been one hit wonder not one hit album wonder. Lorde is a one hit wonder with Royals.
ReplyDeletegaga?? her only hit album was the fame. everything else sucks and we all know enty hates her..
ReplyDeleteAlanis. Only hit album was the mega selling Jagged Little Pill. All of her other albums have been flops.
