Music magazine: Inspiration- Adele

When choosing who to base my music magazine on, I wanted someone who was a dominant female figure in the music industry. I wanted them to be successful and well known but also a good role model. I decided on Adele. Adele Adkins (mainly known as Adele) is an English singer-songwriter. After a friend posted her demo's on Myspace she was then offered a recording contract by XL recordings.  Adele has been really successful and in 2007 she won the British Awards 'critics choice' and then the next year won BBC sound of the year. Her album 19, released in 2008 was a success with it certified four times platinum in the UK and her next album 21, released in 2011 and has been certified 14 times platinum in the UK. In the US the album became the longest album to hold its position since 1998. Adele has been nominated for 6 grammy awards.
