Adele doesn’t know when she’ll perform again after tearful Vegas goodbye

British superstar Adele cried on Saturday night as she played her 100th and final show in Las Vegas.

She has spent the past two years playing a weekend residency at the 4,000-capacity Caesars Palace.

Throughout her residency she often interacted with fans, but has indicated that the experience has been emotionally draining.

Earlier this year, she also said she plans to take a “big break” from music after her current run of concerts.

Videos from inside the venue on Saturday show Adele getting emotional during the concert and crying as she bid farewell to Vegas.

“I’m so sad this residency is over but I am so glad that it happened, I really, really am,” she said.

“I will miss it terribly, I will miss you terribly. I don’t know when I next want to perform again,” she added.

Adele’s Vegas residency was initially set to start in January 2022, but was cancelled just 24 hours before the first show was due to begin following a Covid outbreak among production staff and delays in finishing the set.

It began later that year, and she performed every Friday and Saturday.

There have been plenty of memorable moments over the years, including her bursting into tears after spotting Celine Dion at her concert.

The two singers then shared a hug in the Colosseum Theatre at Caesars Palace, a venue originally built for Dion’s 2003 debut residency.

Adele is known to idolise the Canadian icon, while Dion has also spoken in glowing terms about Adele.

The London-born singer – whose albums 19, 21, 25 and 30 have all been massive worldwide successes – also made headlines when she defended a fan who was told to sit down at one of her Vegas concerts.

The audience member was singing along enthusiastically to Water Under the Bridge when another fan sitting behind him and a security guard told him he was blocking the view.

Adele spotted that and paused the song, telling the guard to “leave him alone”.

The fan used a selfie stick to record the interaction, which he later posted on TikTok.

He also thanked the star for “standing up for me”.

However, not every Vegas concert has gone to plan.

In June, Adele angrily cursed an audience member who allegedly yelled “Pride sucks” during one of her shows.

“Did you come to my… show and just say that Pride sucks?” she scolded. “Don’t be so… ridiculous.

“If you have nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?”

The 36-year-old later admitted she got easily riled up these days, adding that she was “old and grumpy now”.
