Rebel Wilson has been spilling a lot of tea ahead of the release of her memoir ‘Rebel Rising’, which further promises to unveil some intriguing secrets from her life. One of the encounters revealed in the memoir is with Adele, wherein Rebel has claimed that the singer hated her.
In a recent excerpt from Rebel’s memoir published by US Weekly, the actress has shed light on some sour moments with Adele. The 44-year-old actress reveals in the excerpt that there was a time when Adele, like herself, faced confusion due to their similar appearance when both of them were overweight.
“Some actresses would get offended if I called them plus-size in this book, so I have to be careful with what I say. This is why, I think, Adele hates me,” the published excerpt reads. “There was a moment when she was bigger, and some people would confuse us for one another,” the actress added, although she admitted that it was just her assumption and she has never directly addressed the issue with the singer.
Wilson recounted instances of crossing paths with Adele, noting that the singer would often “very quickly” distance herself. “As if my fatness might rub off on her if I were near her for more than thirty seconds. She didn’t like being compared to ‘Fat Amy,’” Wilson added.
Singer Adele and Rebel Wilson have both undergone some significant transitions through their weight loss journeys that have widely been discussed in the public domain. While both these celebrities were once considered obese, they have now gotten into shape after putting some commendable efforts into getting their health back on track.

Rebel Wilson has also in the past admitted that how people treated her changed significantly after she lost weight. She also stated that she has spoken extensively about the inspiration behind her weight loss journey and how it impacted her life in the upcoming memoir. She asserted that she aims to make people aware of the importance of weight loss and a healthy lifestyle through her book.
She has also addressed several other difficult issues in the memoir including her sexuality, virginity as well as sexual assault. The actress admitted to having lost her virginity at the age of 35, reassuring her readers that being a “late bloomer” is okay and something that people should embrace.
One of the sexual assault experiences is with actor Sacha Baron Cohen. Describing him as a “massive a-hole,” Wilson disclosed feeling intimidated while working with him on ‘The Brothers Grimsby’ as Cohen allegedly pressured her to film nude scenes. She also claimed that the actor made inappropriate requests during filming, which she vehemently rejected.
However, Baron Cohen has vehemently denied Wilson’s allegations, labeling them as “demonstrably false.”
‘Rebel Rising‘ is scheduled to be released on April 2, 2024.
