The British singer took the internet by storm after showing off her weight loss transformation

This week, the British singer Adele took the internet by storm after showing off her drastic transformation on Instagram.

The Grammy-winning artist took to social media on her birthday and flaunted a toned figure in a little black dress and matching heels.

"Thank you for the birthday love," the Hello songstress captioned the much-talked-about picture.

"I hope you’re all staying safe and sane during this crazy time. I’d like to thank all of our first responders and essential workers who are keeping us safe while risking their lives! You are truly our angels. 2020 okay bye thanks x” she captioned the post."

Soon after the picture went viral, many shared their sentiments on her weight loss. Some called it post-breakup revenge glow, others called it stunning.

Either way, here's how the internet reacted:

Others felt she was always successful and brilliant, so her weight loss doesn't change much about her.

Let's just not forget that Adele - before and after her weight loss - has always been incredible. The singer has won 15 Grammy awards and holds several records for most-sold albums.

The weight loss might have been another feather in her cap, but it certainly isn't 'the achievement she's yearned for,' or with her stature - ever really needed.
