Adele has turned to hypnoptherapy in an attempt to cure her stage fright, which has crippled the star during her career.
The singer has reportedly been having treatment in LA with a hypnotherapist to help her conquer her stage fright, The Sun reports.
The award-collecting popstar is set to perform her critically acclaimed James Bond theme ‘Skyfall’ at the Oscars ceremony later this month (February 24) but is apparently so nervous about it that she’s suffering from panic attacks and sleepless nights.
Adele’s friends say that her nerves have got worse since she heard that Barbra Streisand will also be performing at the event.
A source told the newspaper: “A friend in LA recommended the hypnotherapist because Adele was getting so nervous about the gig.
“She has been rehearsing for the show with an orchestra, but all the preparation in the world isn’t enough to keep her calm.
“She was so nervous before last year’s Grammys that she was sick before going on stage. She doesn’t want a repeat of that.”

Recently most of the talk surrounding Adele has focused on her son, who we now know is called Angelo James.
Last weekend the singer’s estranged father told how he was yet to meet his grandson and that his efforts to contact Adele had been futile.
