She's bemoaned doctors' orders to ban pizza from her diet during her North American tour.

But Adele didn't even look like she could benefit from the hot Stateside weather on Friday, when she went about town in knitwear and slouchy harem trousers.

The British musician, 28, ignored the heat during an outing in Santa Monica after telling a crowd in the Californian city that cooked tomatoes have been affecting her vocals.

Beat the heat: Adele ignored the sunny weather in Santa Monica, California on Friday when she stepped out wearing a thick knit and slouchy harem trousers

'I can't eat pizza anymore guys,' The Daily Star reports that she told the crowd. 'How bad is that?'

'Because it's got cooked tomatoes on it which are bad for your throat and give you acid reflux. How bad is that, that I can't eat pizza, can you get over that?'

'I'm in America and I can't eat pizza no more. It's worse than Romeo And Juliet! If only Shakespeare was alive, he could write about it!'

Still cool: She added Converse trainers to the image to give it a cool edge

The sad story didn't seem to have dampened Adele's spirits when she stepped out with a friend at the weekend, however.

She carried just a purse as she made a low-key outing in her Converse trainers and slouchy hippie-style trousers.

Adele hid a relaxed, make-up free display beneath chic shades as she enjoyed a day off from performing.

The singer has been no stop during the latest leg of her world tour, so it's understandable that she's taking care to look after her vocals.

Previously, her love of pizza led her to - according to The Sun - request that hotel staff in the Cotswolds take a 140-mile round trip for the cheese-based dish.

The original report claimed that Adele requested pizza from her favourite Kensington takeaway to be delivered to Soho Farmhouse, in July.
