Singer Adele says she has body image problems but she never lets it rule her life.

The 27-year-old British superstar, who is a week away from the release of her highly anticipated album 25, says she struggles with her share of insecurities, reports usmagazine.com.

"I do have body image problems, for sure, but I don't let them rule my life at all," the mother of three-year-old baby Angelo told SiriusXM's The Spectrum.

"And there's bigger issues going on in the world than how I might feel about myself," she added.

When it comes to finding her confidence, Adele has a philosophy she lives by.

"There's only one of you, so why would you want to look like everyone else?" she asked. "Why would you want to have the same hairstyle as everyone else and have the same opinions as everybody else?"

The singer, who won an Oscar in 2013 for her James Bond theme song "Skyfall," just released her second single, "When We Were Young," after the smash success of "Hello."
