British torch singer Adele headed for 'Vogue'

Adele is in vogue, and soon to be in "Vogue."

The British torch singer competes in four categories at Sunday's Grammy Awards, including Record of the Year for the breakup ballad "Chasing Pavements."

Having reached a pinnacle of the music business at just age 20, the plus-sized songstress is moving on to the heights of fashion _ with a "Vogue" spread to be shot this week by celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz.

"I went to go do my final fitting for the shoot," Adele told AP Television in an interview Monday. "Then (American "Vogue" Editor in Chief) Anna Wintour wanted to meet me, so I was waiting in the hallway.

"It was just like 'The Devil Wears Prada,'" Adele continued. "It was amazing. I was really frightened and I went in and she was so nice. She was like, 'What labels do you like?' I was trying to make up these designers that I was quite sure I had read in 'Vogue' or something before."

By the time their meeting was over, Adele was red-carpet ready. Wintour took a liking to Adele, and offered to style her for the Grammies.

"Anna Wintour is sorting out my outfit for me," the singer said, sounding as if in disbelief.

"I got a really nice dress," Adele said of Grammy-night ensemble. "I don't ever wear dresses. I wear dresses with tights and flat shoes and a cardigan. But I am going to get my boobs out and everything. It's going to be quite a big deal."
