Adele Is 'Done with Being a Bitter Witch'

Originally posted 02/14/2012 05:45PM

Adele swept Sunday's Grammy Awards with six gramophones, but her big win isn't inspiring her to rush back into the studio.

"I am f–––––– off for four or five years," she tells Vogue in its March issue.

"If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record and be in love and be happy ... I won't come out with new music until it's better than 21."

The current love Adele, 23, refers to is former investment banker Simon Konecki, 37.

It's the perfect pick-me-up as she recovers from throat surgery.

Adele, the Brit with the powerhouse voice, earned six Grammy Award nominations Wednesday night, including nods in all three of the award show's major categories: album of the year; record of the year; and song of the year.

Kanye West, however, snagged the most recognition, leading with seven nominations, many for his collaboration with Jay-Z, Watch the Throne.

This year, like last, the Grammys spread the wealth across genres, with rockers Foo Fighters and R&B crooner Bruno Mars each picking up six nominations. Not far behind: rapper Lil Wayne and electronic dance jam pioneer Skrillex, who both pulled in five nominations, while indie rocker Bon Iver, Nicki Minaj, Mumford & Sons and Rihanna each earned four nominations.
