Singer Adele has buried the hatchet and moved on from the incident when Phil Collins called her a "slippery little fish". She says there is no bad blood between them.

Adele denied snubbing Collins for her album "25" after he called her a "slippery little fish". Collins remarks came after Adele apparently dropped their collaboration, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The "Hello" hitmaker worked with Collins last year, before she officially began recording her record-breaking third LP.

Adele now claims that the reason the track didn't make the cut was because she wasn't "ready" and was prioritising looking after her three-year-old son Angelo with husband Simon Konecki.

"I think he interpreted it that I decided I didn't want to work with him, but actually I decided I didn't want to write a record, period, at that point. But yeah, there's no bad blood there, or certainly not on my half," the Rollingstone Magazine quoted the 27-year-old as saying.
