Adele is plotting to assemble a coven of former BRIT School girls for what she says would be “the best band ever”.
The 19-year-old has her sights set on Amy Winehouse, Katie Melua, Lily Allen and Kate Nash for the as-yet-unnamed super-group, according to the Guardian, though as far as DrownedinSound’s aware Allen never studied at the fame camp.
She went on to explain to reporters that the quintet would “represent most women in the world”, the vast majority of the planet’s female population obviously comprised of white, middle-class drama students.
Still, they’re "not afraid to speak our minds… you don't need to be a doll with tanned legs, blonde hair, big boobs and good lips."
No, Adele, but young girls shouldn’t feel they have to resemble a trainee darts wag, either.

'Trainee darts wag' is the funniest thing ever type in a new story.
Properly laughing out loud here. Brilliant.
The standard of the news stories has been really good today.
A few have made me laugh.
Lolling at this
LOL
I would love this to happen...
especially if the first gig was on alpha centauri, and they took a lovely slow shuttle.
this just about sums up
everything I thought when I heard about this. Apart from the vomiting noise i made in my head.
Completely irrelavant to the story
aren't her comments an unfair slur on the other 4?
Katie Melua's obviously heart-crushingly gorgeous-looking whilst Amy Winehouse, Kate Nash and Lily Allen, although not conventionally looking, are all people who I know guys who have a thing for. So I'm not sure they'd be happy with Adele lumping them in with the "proving you don't have to be good-looking" crowd.
Seriously
What the fuck does 'chasing pavements' mean? By pavements does she mean 'the sweet trolley'?
its just because adele has a bum chin
.
winehouse, nash or allen only have "guys having a thing for them" because they're pop singers. all three are borderline ugly but presentable enough when they scrub up enough (possibly no longer applies to winehouse but she looked alright for her first album)
theres no way lily allen is ugly
i think shes really nice looking
Kate Nash
is well buff.
It's real logic at work
Girls! You don't have to look like a Barbie doll made flesh to succeed! No, evidently you have to go to the Brit School. Every piece of self-regard by a Brit School graduate about how they've somehow made it against the odds makes me warm to Amy MacDonald all the more, assuming she doesn't start singing in that gravel register.
Their minds speaking
Is boring.
..
i hope to god that this is an attempt at humour. she sounds so insecure too. sad.
"You don't need...
... to be a doll with tanned legs, blonde hair, big boobs and good lips."
Nor do you need-- particularly in Adele's case-- to possess any talent whatsoever. All you need are the right connections, and an acoustic guitar. ; )
... Also, before about ten minutes ago, I'd never seen Katie Melua. Ain't she purty?
why did i read this ?
all involved at getting this 'story' to DIS news should be hung, drawn and quartered
They should be called...
'The Idiot Coven', Or maybe 'Best Band Ev-Ah!'. Or perhaps 'Set Controls For The Heart Of Topshop'.
It was international Myspace womens day the other day: I know this because my screen went bright pink, and pictures of Allen, Winehouse, et al were accompanied by the tagline 'women rock!'. I sicked a little...
Stop being so bitt-AH!!!!
;)
I like
Best Band Ev-Ah!
