"Rumour Has It" Adele's back in the studio!

Actually, OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder is working with the 25-year-old singer on new music for her upcoming third studio album, and as he told the Herald Sun, Adele "sounds even better than before."

"I love where she's at, " Ryan gushed. "She's still my favourite artist in the world. I would press pause on my entire life if it meant I could go into the studio for a month straight with her. "

Ryan's also working with Beyoncé on new music, and while he wouldn't dish on when we can expect that (or Adele's 21 follow-up), he did say Mrs. Carter's next album "will be mind-blowing."

Clearly, Ryan sees Adele and Queen Bey as great role models, but he's not so sure about Miley Cyrus. "I don't want 12, 13, 14, 15, 16-year-old girls staring at Miley thinking, 'The biggest asset I have is my body, especially if it's naked, and the more naked I get the more successful I can get,'" he said.

"I want teenagers to be motivated to work hard, learn to write songs, practice your instrument," he continued. "Become a phenomenal talent like Adele or Beyoncé. Don't just take your damn clothes off.''
