Adele gives update on postponed Las Vegas residency: “It has to happen this year”
Adele has given fans an update on her recently postponed Las Vegas residency. During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, the 33-year old revealed that her concert series is still “happening this year.” “We are now working our arses off, but I don’t want to announce a new set of dates until I know everything will definitely be ready,” she revealed. “It is absolutely 100 per cent happening this year.
It has to happen this year because I’ve got plans for next year. Imagine if I have to cancel because I’m having a baby!” The Someone Like You singer also gave further insight into her initial decision to postpone the shows. “It would have been a really half-arsed show, and I can’t do that.
People will see straight through me up on the stage being like ‘she doesn’t want to be doing this,'” she explained. “I’ve never done anything like that in my life, and I’m not going to start now.” The news comes a few weeks after she uploaded an emotional video to social media announcing the show’s indefinite postponement. “I’m so sorry, but my show ain’t ready,” Adele told fans in between tears. “We’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID.
Half my crew, half my team are down with COVID, they still are and it’s been impossible to finish the show.” She went on to say that her team had been working tirelessly to pull a show together, but in the end, it didn’t work out.
