Weekends With Adele' Is Canceled: Singer Says They Have 'Tried Absolutely Everything' To Continue Her Las Vegas Residency

It looks like Adele's Sin City performances are no longer happening in the coming months.

In a tearful video shared on Instagram, Adele announced the postponement of her Las Vegas residency.

According to the artist's official website, Adele's Las Vegas residency, "Weekends With Adele", was set to begin on January 21 at the Colosseum at the Caesars Palace hotel and last for 12 weeks, ending on April 16.

The performances were also intended to be her first public appearances since last year.

Taking to Instagram on Thursday night (January 20) to share the news with her followers, Adele posted a video message.

Teary-eyed, the British songstress apologized as her show "ain't ready".

She continued to explain, saying that they have "tried absolutely everything" they can to put the show together in time for it to be good h for fans.

However, the show is put to hold because of "delivery delays" and the uptick of COVID-19 cases across the continent.

Adele revealed on the message that half of her crew and team are down with COVID-19. Due to this, finishing preparations for her show is impossible.

Feeling "gutted", the Someone Like You hitmaker repeatedly apologized again to her fans - revealing that they had been "awake for over 30 hours" trying to figure out the plan.

Adele is "so upset" with the outcome, running out of time, as she is "really embarrased and so sorry" for those fans who have traveled or booked tickets to have "Weekends With Adele" in Las Vegas.

The singer-songwriter has also stated that she and her team are actively working on changing the residency dates and that they are "gonna finish my show and get it to where it's supposed to be".

The success of "30"

Adele's recent number-one album, "30", was intended to serve as a springboard for the residency in Las Vegas.

On January 12, the British pop powerhouse released a black-and-white music video for the song "Oh My God", from her album "30".

"30" was also declared the best-selling album of 2021 in the United Kingdom, where it sold more than 600,000 copies.

As soon as it was released in the United Kingdom, '30' broke ABBA's 'Voyage' album's previous record of 261,000 equivalent chart sales, making it the fastest-selling album of the year in the country.

It also had the best first week of sales in 2021 in the United States, when it sold 839,000 equivalent album copies in its first week of release.

In 2021, it became the first album in the United States to sell more than a million copies.
