Adele’s Las Vegas residency has been cancelled, the singer revealed in an Instagram post on Thursday.
A visibly disappointed Adele in a post on her official Instagram handle on Thursday, while expressing her disappointment, stated that she tried everything possible, but the show will not go on. She said COVID has forced her to cancel her upcoming Vegas residency.
Adele apologized to fans Thursday for having to cancel at the last minute. She says she tried hard to make sure her show was ready in time, but she says it’s been nearly impossible with delivery delays, and half of her team being down due to COVID-19.
Adele’s Las Vegas residency was set for this weekend as a part of her “Weekends with Adele” residency. She planned to do 24 shows starting this month and running through April. But, now fans who travelled to Sin City will have to find something else to do, because they won’t be hearing from the Grammy-award winning singer not this weekend, anyway.
Adele obviously appeared very remorseful, and distraught about the decision she says she intends to reschedule, and she’s “gonna get [the show] to where it’s supposed to be.”
No word yet on when those new dates will be, but in her own words, she said:
“”tried absolutely everything we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and Covid.”
“I’m so sorry but my show ain’t ready,” she said. “Half my crew, half my team is down with Covid. They still are, and it’s been impossible to finish the show. And I can’t give you what I have right now, and I’m gutted.”
“And I’m sorry it’s so last minute. We’ve been awake for over 30 hours now trying to figure it out, and we’ve run out of time,” she said. “And I’m so upset, and I’m really embarrassed and I’m so sorry to everyone who travelled, again.”
The “Hello” singer said dates would be rescheduled.
“It’s been impossible. We’ve been up against so much, and it just ain’t ready,” she said. “I’m really sorry.”
