Adele confesses to Colin Firth crush

Soul singer Adele has confessed that she has a crush on 47-year-old actor Colin Firth.

The popstar, 19, also revealed that she is a fan of Justin Timberlake.

"Colin Firth's my ideal man," Adele told People. "I think it's because he's Darcy in Bridget Jones. He's charming and very British.

"I want a British husband but I would go with Justin [Timberlake] if he wanted me."

Adele also revealed that she wasn't concerned by criticism of her weight in the media. "I'm overweight but I don't care," she said.

"The British press makes slight remarks [about my weight] sometimes. Blogs mainly. But I don't care what some 12-year-old thinks in his bedroom."
