Adele has revealed that the pressure of being in the spotlight often makes her physically ill. 

The 'Someone Like You' superstar, who won a phenomenal 6 awards at last Sunday's (February 12) GRAMMYs, explained to U.S. Vogue magazine that walking the red carpet affects her nerves as much as performing to a large audience and she suffers from stomach pain because of the stress:

"I hate the red carpet. I don't feel insecure, I just feel like, 'Oh, I don't want to do this.' I literally get a stomach cramp. At the VMAs last year I felt really out of my comfort zone because there were so many superstars there. But that's been the case from day one. I never feel like, 'Oh, yeah, I should be here.' And I was missing my best friend's hen night. So I was a bit bitter that I wasn't there, to be perfectly honest."

Despite experiencing anxiety in celebrity-filled situations, Adele added that the positive side to being invited to star-studded events means that she gets to meet her idols and chatting to Beyoncé was such an inspiration to her:

"She's ridiculously talented, and she is one of the kindest people I've ever met. I'm the total opposite. I can moan my ass off; I can be lazy. She makes me want to do things with my life."
