Adele postpones 24 shows in Las Vegas Caesars Palace residency – only a few hours before it was to start, citing delivery delays and coronavirus illness in her crew.
Adele had been due to perform 24 shows at Caesars Palace Hotel starting Friday following the release of her fourth album, “30.”
“I’m sorry it’s so last minute. We’ve been awake for over 30 hours now, trying to figure it out and we’ve run out of time. I’m so upset and I’m really embarrassed and I’m so sorry to everyone that’s travelled again.”
The chart-topping British singer said she was “gutted” and promised to reschedule the shows.
