Adele revealed she had collapsed backstage ahead of one of her recent residency performances in Las Vegas. 

The 35-year-old hitmaker explained that a sciatica attack had caused her to fall and a member of her production staff had to help her off the ground. 

After taking a month-long break, the star recently returned to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace to continue her run of Weekends With Adele shows, which is planned to carry on until November.

During a gig in Sin City, she told fans about the flare-up of her spinal condition and admitted her crew ‘picked my whole body up off the floor’.

According to The Sun, she was also forced to take time out and step away from the stage during her performance at the weekend and explained: ‘I am going to sit down and rest my sciatica’. 

The Rolling in the Deep singer continued sharing: ‘Early on this year I started bragging about my sciatica, I wasn’t feeling it any more. Then God brought it back.’

She has touched on her condition in the past and has said the pain down one or both legs from the lower back has often caused her to ‘waddle’. 

Adele’s health scare came as she offered her support to fellow singer and artist Miley Cyrus who claimed she used the British musician’s work as inspiration. 

Miley, 30, has said that she thought of Adele ‘often’ whilst she was writing her new song Used To Be Young.

The American singer – who rose to fame in the role of Hannah Montana on the popular children’s TV programme of the same name – released her new single on Friday.

Recently, a video of Adele circulated online captioned ‘Adele praising Miley Cyrus and her song Used To Be Young’ where the singer can be heard saying onstage, during a show: ‘I am obsessed with Miley Cyrus’s new song.’

Miley posted the video to her Instagram story and wrote a message to Adele, which said: ‘I thought of you often while writing this song – always hoped that you would love it.’

She added: ‘This means the world to me. I love you. Mission accomplished.’

Metro.co.uk contacted Adele’s reps for comment.
