The long-standing debate on body image and beauty is often fueled whenever a celebrity decides to go through a drastic physical transformation. A similar debate on body image and beauty was sparked recently by Billie Eilish when she disclosed that the way media and fans discuss her body does not affect her life. Talking about Adele's transformation, the internet has been divided into two sides as netizens are speaking both in favour and against Adele's weight loss transformation. 

Some Adele fans were quick to share that another person's weight loss journey shouldn't be discussed the way it is being for the Hello singer. While on the other hand, some fans also sparked a debate about 'fatphobia' and how it is relevant in Adele's case. Check out what fans' views below -
