Overview
Adele has clarified her position on her Grammy award nominations, after reports suggested she did "not want to win" one of the prizes.
The London-born singer says that comments she made to BBC 6Music have been misinterpreted, and has reaffirmed her respect for the ceremony.
Earlier this month Adele said: "I imagine it's like winning an Oscar and I don't think on this record I should get one.
"I think it should be with my second or third record that I should get the Oscar, like from your third or fourth film when you're amazing".
Putting the matter to bed on her official blog, Adele said: "That's absurd, of course I want to win one!
"I can't be like 'Yeah I so deserve it', that would make me sound like a p****! I'm over the moon!
"I was trying to say that I think a Grammy is music's Oscars. You win an Oscar when you give a performance of your life, and I find it hard to think of my album like that.
Adele has been nominated for four awards: Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for 'Chasing Pavements', as well as Best New Artist.
