The `Pretty Woman` actress is a huge fan of the `Someone Like You` singer and has threatened to harm her next boyfriend if her treats her badly.

She told Entertainment Weekly: "Anybody that`s going to date her is a brave, brave man. You`re going to get a whole lot of love, but you`d better treat her right, or we`re all coming after you."

Julia says the reason Adele, 23, has become a worldwide star is because people can relate to her and the pain and heartache she`s going through.

She said: "Adele`s music is so personal that you get invested in her life.

"When Adele had her health scare, I had random people saying to me, `Oh my God, did you hear about Adele?`

"We feel like Adele`s in our book club or she lives near us - that`s a gift, to make people feel that way."

Meanwhile, Adele - who recently underwent throat surgery - has revealed she is going to take a couple of years to work on her third album, following the huge success of `19` and `21`.

She said: "I imagine I`ll be 25 or 26 by the time my next record comes out, as I haven`t even thought about my third record yet.

"I`m just going to lay some concrete, set up home and just `be` for a bit. I`ll disappear and come back with a record when it`s good enough."
