Adele's Mother Furious Over Grammy Win

Adele has admitted her mother was not impressed when she picked-up her Grammy awards earlier this year, as she was caught chewing gum.

The singer-songwriter collected two gongs at this year's ceremony in February, taking home Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal.

Adele tells Glamour magazine of her mother's disappointment: "When the award for Best New Artist was announced, I was so convinced that the Jonas Brothers or Duffy were going to win, I wasn't prepared at all."

"I'd undone my belt and I had chewing gum in my mouth. I nearly cried during my speech but I thought, 'No, I can't because of the Kate Winslet Golden Globe moment. One British person doing that is enough for one year.'"

"When I came off stage and rang my mum to tell her, she was like, 'Yeah, I saw... you had gum in your mouth!' I don't think she was impressed!"
