Soul newcomer ADELE wants to form a pop supergroup - with her former schoolmates AMY WINEHOUSE, KATIE MELUA, LILY ALLEN and KATE NASH. The 19-year-old Brit is convinced the quintet, who are all graduates of the U.K.'s BRIT school for performing arts - could conquer the music industry as one. She says, "Amy, Katie, Lily, Kate and me all come from the same school. If we were in a band I think it would be the best band ever. “We’re not afraid to speak out minds. I think everyone is entitled to an opinion whether it is good or horrible.” And the singer insists the all-girl group would win over a multitude of female fans because real women could relate to them: “All of us represent most women in the world. You don’t need to be a doll with tanned legs, blonde hair, big boobs and good lips. I really don’t think you have to be like that any more.”
I saw her saying this yesterday in an interview that she did the day she performed here (march 4th). She also said that she likes both Amy’s albums, that she (Amy) has a good voice, is great live and doesn’t copy anyone else.
While we’re on the subject of people liking Amy: One of the videos on that website is about Laïs and I’ve read that the favourite album of one of those women (I don’t know which one) is Back To Black. They sing like folk music, or medieval songs or something.
