"If I'd carried on smoking, I'd probably have died from a smoking-related illness, and I think that's really bad," she said.
"If I was dying from lung cancer I would have potentially given it to myself and that wouldn't be something I'd be proud of," she added.
According to her interview with 60 Minutes, the "Hello" singer used to smoke 25 cigarettes a day and had been in 2011, when she was forced to cancel shows after she lost her voice during a live radio session in France.

"Like someone put a curtain over my throat...and I could feel it," Adele said of the scary situation during her 2012 interview. "It felt like something popped in my throat."
The 27-year-old singer then underwent laser surgery when doctors discovered that a polyp on her vocal throat had hemorrhaged, ET wrote. In addition, she told Rolling Stone that the part of her overcoming such habit is her son Angelo, 3, who she shares with her boyfriend of four years, Simon Konecki. "I absolutely loved it, but it's not that f**king cool when I'm dying from a smoking-related illness and my kid is, like, devastated," she said.
Adele also told the magazine that not only has she squashed the nicotine vice, she's significantly decreased her drinking. "I used to be able to drink anyone under the table and still be able to put on an all-right show," she says, admitting she only has about one drink a week now. "But with kids, hangovers are torture. They just know. They pick up on it and just go for you."
On another note, the singer is set to hit the road in Europe in February, followed by tour dates stateside in July. That is, if you could even get a ticket to one of her U.S. dates.
