As Mike recently pointed out, Adele is a phenomena who popularity exploded this year because… she has a great voice and the songs are great! She’s had a rough time lately however thanks to throat surgery and a silent recovery.
After a polyp was removed Adele was told not to speak for a month. According to an upcoming interview on 60 Minutes, Adele, who loves to talk, found the silence more difficult than the actual surgery. Fortunately for her she lives in the era of smartphone apps. As she explained,
I had an application on my phone that you type the words into it and then it speaks it.
But there’s more. You see, most text-to-speach apps offer G-rated language and Adele is a self-professed potty-mouth. Fortunately, there’s even an app for THAT! As she put,
…I love to swear. Most of [the apps] you can’t swear on, but I found this one app where you can swear, so I’m still really getting my point across.
Ain’t technology grand!?!
Adele’s 60 Minutes interview will air on Feb. 12.
