I can almost say for certain that Adele’s Las Vegas Residency was canceled over production and personal drama, certainly not covid or supply chain issues as she suggested.

The UK singer cancelled her 3 month residency 24 hours before showtime.

“When she saw the finished design, she refused to take part” according to a source.

Adele may also be having relationship problems with boyfriend Rich Paul, the Klutch Sports Founder and LeBron James associate who serves as the agent of Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons.

Page Six cites “insiders are concerned Adele may end up canceling the concerts.There are rumblings that there are stresses related to Adele’s relationship,” Roeben said. “I’m told that these stresses caused her to be in a place where she was just not confident moving forward. You can’t focus if you’re not where you need to be in your head.”

Variety is also reporting that Keith Urban will take over some of Adele’s dates at Caesars Palace, as her sets are loaded out”.

Insiders are claiming Adele pulled the plug over production disagreements. Performing at Casinos is very alien to the UK singer and Las Vegas is lights and glitz, not the perfect setting for a melancholic newly mum that is focused on hitting the right notes. She isn’t use to performing shows like Bruce Springsteen or Bon Jovi, she was nearly home for 5 years before writing her new album Adele 30. The singer has made no secret of her crippling stage fright, or indeed the fact she hates touring.

She has vomited before going on stage and said she would turn jobs down in case she had an ‘anxiety attack’ and couldn’t go on.

Talking to Q magazine she said: “I will not do festivals. The thought of an audience that big frightens the life out of me. I don’t think the music would work either. It’s all too slow.

“I’d hate to book a festival and have a f***ing anxiety attack and then not go on stage, do you know what I mean?”

She added: “I’d rather do 12 years at the Barfly than one night at the O2.”

Adele has announced the postponement of her Las Vegas residency, just 24 hours before kick off. The UK singer blamed covid for its cancellation.

In a tearful video posted to Instagram, Adele said her team “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.”

The show at Caesars Palace was set to begin Friday and go through April 16.

Adele will earn $700,000.00 a night from her Las Vegas Residency. The singer will also take a cut from all merchandise sales at the venue.

The UK singer is provided a private suite, a butler, executive assistant, chauffeur and security. She’ll also get a food pass allowing her to eat and drink for free at any Caesars resort.

She’ll perform 24 concerts on Fridays and Saturdays at Caesars that will run til April 16.
