Hello, it's me
The singer had to postpone her shows last week in a tearful video to her fans. The announcement was made just 24 hours before her first planned concert of her residency in Caesars Palace.
"Half my team have Covid and it's been impossible to finish the show," said the singer. She also claimed she was awake for 30 hours in order to get the show done but had simply "run out of time."
She added, "I can't give you what I have right now and I'm gutted."
However, despite the major disappointment for fans, especially those who had travelled long distances, the "Easy on Me" singer did leave behind some surprises.
Fans arrived in Caesars Palace Colosseum to a note written in lipstick, situated in the merch store.
"Hi guys! I'm so upset to not be with you tonight," read the note, "But I know some of you are here already so please hang out and look at the outfits, take pics of anything you want. Of yourselves and with each other! There's people in the room I worked with on the store and the merch. There's members of my management in here too to show you around. And any of you in here who were due to come to the shows this weekend can have a gift on me! I'm so sorry again."
Adele even Facetimed some fans while they were at the store, going above and beyond to appease those who travelled to see her live.
Caesars Palace also released a statement following the show's postponement.
"We understand the disappointment surrounding the postponement of WEEKENDS WITH ADELE," it read. "Adele is an incredible artist, supremely dedicated to her music and her fans. Creating a show of this magnitude is incredibly complex. We fully support Adele and are confident the show she unveils at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace will be extraordinary."
