Julia Roberts: 'Adele has a gift'

Julia Roberts has revealed that she is a big fan of Adele.

The actress, who discovered the singer after her hairdresser gave her a copy of 21, jokingly warned future boyfriends not to break her heart.

"Anybody that's going to date her is a brave man," the Pretty Woman star told Entertainment Weekly. "You're going to get a whole lot of love, but you'd better treat her right, or we're all coming after you.

"Adele's music is so personal that you get invested in her life. When Adele had her health scare, I had random people saying to me, 'Oh my God, did you hear about Adele?'

"We feel like Adele's in our book club or she lives in our neighbourhood - that's a gift, to make people feel that way."

The 'Rolling In The Deep' star has admitted that she won't release a new album for another two to three years.

She was recently named as the first British artist in over two decades to top both the single and! album e nd-of-year charts in the US. She also achieved the best-selling album and single on iTunes in 2011 and was nominated for six Grammy Awards.
