Adele 'Leaving London To Save Her Voice'

11:59, Saturday, 17 December 2011

It seems that Adele is making her voice her number one priority following the recent operation on her vocal chords, because she's now apparently planning to move out of her beloved London.

The singer, 23, is a proud Londoner, but The Mirror reports that she is already househunting in the countryside in a bid to escape the city's air pollution.

A source told the paper: "The operation went well but she still needs to take good care of herself.

"Adele is a London girl through and through, but shes never been particularly into the showbiz circuit so when it was suggested she move out of the city, she agreed immediately.

"The idea is for her to live in the countryside, away from the capital's smog and pollution."

Boy George recently publicly declared that Adele should pack in the ciggies if she wants to look after her voice, following her surgery in the US on her haemorrhaged vocal chord - but there has been no word on whether she's taking up the Culture Club star's advice.

Adele's first hit was Hometown Glory back in 2007, in which she sang the words: "I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque."

How things change, eh?
