Rihanna found Adele's music 'depressing'

Rihanna has revealed that she stopped listening to Adele's songs because she found them depressing.

The 'Umbrella' hitmaker said that she is a big fan of the British singer and the lyrics struck too much of a chord with her.

"I love her. "I'm a big fan...Her last album, 21, spoke to me so much," Us magazine quoted her as saying on the Jonathan Ross Show.

She had to give herself a break from listening to the album.

"I feel like everyone in the world identified with [21], to the point that I had to stop listening because it was depressing me so much.

"If you identify with it, sometimes you don't want to hear about it," she said.
