miss more Tesco or sandp well I'd say Tesco simply because
3:41.72 – 3:48.04 (6.3s)
45
that was the only Supermarket that was in my neighborhood when I was growing up but actually it's marks and Spencer all
3:46.48 – 3:53.60 (7.1s)
46
right we're going to go back in time you're making your first album okay 19
3:51.80 – 3:58.12 (6.3s)
47
what surprised you about professionally recording music back then I think how much I really enjoy being in the studio
3:56.84 – 4:03.48 (6.6s)
48
environment actually and who in the crowd made you most nervous during your first TV
4:02.44 – 4:09.88 (7.4s)
49
appearance was it your mom or Sir Paul McCartney without a doubt it was Sir
4:07.40 – 4:13.60 (6.2s)
50
Paul McCartney and um at the end of the show that I did my first ever singing
4:11.76 – 4:18.16 (6.4s)
51
performance on he'd sang Hey Jude so it was incredible what a moment and then
4:15.44 – 4:21.72 (6.3s)
52
there was SNL there was what was the scariest thing about performing live on
4:19.56 – 4:26.44 (6.9s)
53
SNL live TV in America in general but also I knew that a few extra people were
4:23.56 – 4:30.08 (6.5s)
54
tuning in because of Sarah Palin so I definitely shat myself yep that happened
4:27.76 – 4:34.56 (6.8s)
55
and you became a star and how did you handle being recognized in public um I
4:32.64 – 4:39.56 (6.9s)
56
don't love it but ever since 21 sort of came out really I just my hair gets bigger my makeup gets thicker and my
4:36.88 – 4:44.64 (7.8s)
57
dresses get bigger so that I practically look a a bald eagle or something like
4:42.76 – 4:49.36 (6.6s)
58
that in day-to-day life do you mind if I take a gander at your book oh my goodness please do there's some good
4:47.00 – 4:54.68 (7.7s)
59
ones up there okay uh what's the best movie that you've watched recently
4:52.24 – 4:59.44 (7.2s)
60
probably manari and uh do you think it's true that you can learn a lot about a
4:56.40 – 5:02.56 (6.2s)
61
person based on the books that they keep well I would say that but I don't know that many people that have real books in their house anymore they seem to have
5:00.60 – 5:08.16 (7.6s)
62
Kinders or they just don't read it all or on their phone or something like that so I'd say back in the day yeah all
5:06.44 – 5:14.52 (8.1s)
63
right well now we're uh 21 years old you're recording the second album 21 yes
5:12.20 – 5:18.80 (6.6s)
64
what did your Diaries throughout the songwriting process look like then drunk
5:17.32 – 5:25.68 (8.4s)
65
chaotic distressed very very sad um yeah along those lines and what did you do
5:22.16 – 5:29.84 (7.7s)
66
with them after the album was completed are all hidden in a handbag somewhere in
5:27.80 – 5:35.08 (7.3s)
67
my wardrobe room in London and I actually have no idea which one so they
5:32.60 – 5:39.40 (6.8s)
68
could be missing for I know that's good bonus material it is which recording
5:37.80 – 5:44.96 (7.2s)
69
would you say challenged you the most probably don't you remember it was
5:42.24 – 5:49.36 (7.1s)
70
sort of my attempt at a country song um it starts super duper tender and soft
5:47.16 – 5:53.68 (6.5s)
71
which I'm not brilliant at by the end I'm wailing which is way more my comfort zone but um I'd say don't you remember
5:51.92 – 5:58.80 (6.9s)
72
yeah and then there's your throat surgery it was I heard uh John offer some guidance after this procedure what
5:57.48 – 6:05.28 (7.8s)
73
did he share with you he just you know he was just sort of very encouraging to
6:03.24 – 6:09.36 (6.1s)
74
stay silent and be patient and that actually my injury was a very common singer's injury so not to worry too much
6:07.16 – 6:14.24 (7.1s)
75
about it so yeah he was great he's such a sweetheart I like him so much how would you describe the difference in
6:12.68 – 6:19.88 (7.2s)
76
your voice pre and post procedure it was definitely heading towards a Tom weight's sound that I had before my
6:17.20 – 6:25.28 (8.1s)
77
surgery getting very very husky um and afterwards it was a brand new voice it
6:23.04 – 6:29.36 (6.3s)
78
was so clean and pure yeah yeah and would you ever release the alternate
6:27.08 – 6:33.08 (6.0s)
79
version of 21 no because if I wanted to do that I would have done it already so
6:30.88 – 6:38.60 (7.7s)
80
fair point okay so fashion questions
6:34.88 – 6:41.24 (6.4s)
81
okay heels or slides hate slides it's got to be heels Barefoot or heels on
6:38.60 – 6:45.56 (7.0s)
82
stage Barefoot so I don't fall over and what's your most iconic style moment
6:42.96 – 6:49.88 (6.9s)
83
well I would say probably my Armani moment in 2012 at the Grammys and I was
6:48.20 – 6:55.24 (7.0s)
84
pregnant so I just love that dress who's your Fashion Icon Kate Blan who always
6:53.20 – 7:01.92 (8.7s)
85
gets it right on the red carpet Kate Blanchet okay and what do you never
6:58.68 – 7:06.16 (7.5s)
86
leave the house without wearing earrings who makes your favorite
7:04.16 – 7:12.84 (8.7s)
87
eyeliner Pat McGrath and what fashion advice can you offer me right now um
7:09.68 – 7:17.08 (7.4s)
88
just keep on doing what you're doing come for over Style thank you I really
7:15.64 – 7:21.64 (6.0s)
89
that's what I do too I appreciate that and when you're making your third album
7:19.00 – 7:25.28 (6.3s)
90
25 you said that making this album was the hardest thing that you've ever done
7:23.04 – 7:29.88 (6.8s)
91
it was but what was the easiest song on the album to write definitely remedy but I think it's probably because about my
7:27.52 – 7:35.28 (7.8s)
92
son and what was the most valuable thing that you learned from producer Max
7:33.08 – 7:39.72 (6.6s)
93
Martin all about the hooks uh for anyone looking to write a killer pop song
7:36.40 – 7:42.56 (6.2s)
94
what's the most important piece of advice to consider it's all about the hooks about the hooks okay and what was
7:41.36 – 7:49.12 (7.8s)
95
the biggest difference between working on 19 21 and 25 well 19 I hadn't long
7:47.28 – 7:54.44 (7.2s)
96
been signed I only had like four songs that to actually really write an album it felt like uh 21 I couldn't stop
7:52.76 – 8:00.24 (7.5s)
97
writing it it was just Bing out of me I was such a hot mess and then 25 I just
7:58.04 – 8:05.08 (7.0s)
98
didn't have time to write really so I just had a newborn baby so not much let
8:03.00 – 8:09.80 (6.8s)
99
go outside okay let's do it it's lovely out here which venue was most
8:07.52 – 8:13.80 (6.3s)
100
intimidating or terrifying to perform in
8:11.40 – 8:18.04 (6.6s)
101
um after you I would say thez stadium in Sydney it was something silly like
8:13.80 – 8:21.72 (7.9s)
102

109
you cry while singing any of your songs I do to quite a few of my new ones yeah
8:49.00 – 8:55.96 (7.0s)
110

8:53.92 – 9:00.56 (6.6s)
111
love life's going to get a lot worse
8:58.64 – 9:05.84 (7.2s)
112
ooh truth it's truth yeah uh how about any advice for anyone getting started in
9:02.36 – 9:10.12 (7.8s)
113
music well the best advice I ever got was um to keep your heart safe and your
9:07.40 – 9:14.36 (7.0s)
114
music dangerous and I live by that so that would be my piece of advice too
9:12.08 – 9:18.40 (6.3s)
115

9:15.72 – 9:21.92 (6.2s)

117
about parenting to chill out and stop being so regimented with a routine what's your happiest memory with your
9:25.68 – 9:33.68 (8.0s)
118
mom probably when she moved back in with me when I was 21 I was really falling apart and she lovingly put me back
9:31.52 – 9:39.64 (8.1s)
119
together so sweet and I would assume that she's your roommate on the road when you're on tour no because she's
9:37.40 – 9:43.72 (6.3s)
120
still my mother so she still thinks that she can tell me what to do so no she just comes to the shows it's always
9:42.40 – 9:48.92 (6.5s)
121
going to be like that and why was it important for you to support victims of the gfell tower fire just felt like I
9:47.04 – 9:54.16 (7.1s)
122
had to it was right around the corner from where my house in London is and it was you know it was overtook the UK we
9:52.84 – 10:00.04 (7.2s)
123

9:58.68 – 10:05.16 (6.5s)
124
to be a safe and consistent person for them which I hope I was what word would
10:03.28 – 10:09.76 (6.5s)

11:25.16 – 11:31.92 (6.8s)
140
what the fans are I reckon so I reckon someone like you would be number one I
11:30.56 – 11:36.76 (6.2s)
141
think there's a new song on um the new album that would be my number second or
11:34.44 – 11:41.08 (6.6s)
142
be my second one and then when we were young I really love that song I love singing it it means a lot to me great

143
selections and can you do the same for Beyonce's top albums you know that could
11:44.64 – 11:51.16 (6.5s)
144
be controversial uh The Hive might come and kill me I'm okay my personal
11:49.48 – 11:56.88 (7.4s)
145
favorites my first one is Sasha Fierce that Sublime double album the second one
11:54.20 – 12:00.40 (6.2s)
146
one would be lemonade the third one is a bit of a toss-up between two but I'm going to go
11:59.28 – 12:06.52 (7.2s)
147
with my gut and my heart and I'm going to say bday you know she's going to watch
12:04.40 – 12:12.64 (8.2s)

this was breaking your Grammy in half for Beyonce easier or harder than you thought it would be it was actually
12:10.24 – 12:17.16 (6.9s)
149
really easy I was just so uncomfortable and nervous up on the stage trying to give that speech right in front of her
12:15.40 – 12:22.16 (6.8s)
150
and just sort of Twisted off and fell off of me hand it felt like fate on the internet there is David aten

151
bro narrating your hello music video yes there is with his iconic voice yeah uh
12:26.60 – 12:33.96 (7.4s)

12:32.00 – 12:39.48 (7.5s)
153
doing it he just sort of had to watch the video and read the lyrics oh you know read his script and stuff like that
12:37.72 – 12:44.80 (7.1s)
154
but he's like everything in the UK like we love him so much um and he's my mom's

This interview with Adele is an outstanding resource for your English speaking practice. Here’s how to maximize your learning:

  • Master British Pronunciation: Adele's accent is a clear example of modern British English.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.

Comment pratiquer efficacement sur ShadowingEnglish

  1. Choisissez votre vidéo : Choisissez une vidéo YouTube avec un anglais clair et naturel. Les TED Talks, BBC News, scènes de films, podcasts sont parfaits. Collez l'URL dans la barre de recherche.
  2. Écoutez d'abord, comprenez le contexte : La première fois, gardez la vitesse à 1x et écoutez simplement. Ne répétez pas encore. Concentrez-vous sur la compréhension du sens.
  3. Configurez le mode Shadowing :
    • Mode d'attente : Choisissez +3s ou +5s — après chaque phrase, la vidéo se met automatiquement en pause pour que vous puissiez répéter.
    • Sync sous-titres : Les sous-titres YouTube peuvent parfois être décalés. Utilisez ±100ms pour les aligner.
  4. Faites du Shadowing à voix haute (la pratique essentielle) : Dès qu'une phrase est jouée — ou pendant la pause — répétez-la à voix haute, clairement et avec confiance. Imitez le rythme, les accents et l'intonation du locuteur.
  5. Augmentez le défi : Une fois à l'aise avec un passage, augmentez la vitesse à <code>1.25x</code> ou <code>1.5x</code>. Pratiquez 15 à 30 minutes par jour pour des résultats visibles en quelques semaines.
