Adele said ahead of the recent start of her Las Vegas concerts, which she postponed at the last minute 10 months ago, that “she has never been so nervous before a performance“, write the American newspapers.
The singer of chart-topping hits ‘Hello’ and ‘Easy On Me’ faced online backlash in January when she tearfully apologized to her fans in an emotional video for not being able to start her permanent show “Weekends with Adele” at Caesars Palace Hotel in the gambling capital. As the reason, she then cited the illness of half of her team from the new coronavirus.
The music star said his team is “tried absolutely everything“but it was”impossible to finish the showThe concerts were scheduled to begin the next day, and some fans were already on their way to Nevada when they heard the news.
Now, just hours before taking the stage in Las Vegas, the singer-songwriter has shared a photo of herself rehearsing against a backdrop of childhood photos on Instagram.
“I’m overwhelmed with emotions, I’m incredibly nervous, I can’t sit still because I’m so excited. I always get scared before concerts and I take that as a good sign because it means I care and just want to do a good jobAdele wrote.
“I’ve never been this nervous before a show in my career, but at the same time I wish today was tomorrow! Can’t wait to see you there“, added the singer.
Adele’s Las Vegas concerts will continue through March.
In an interview in July, the 34-year-old singer addressed the postponement of her January show, stating that “he certainly felt everyone’s disappointment“it made her feel”crushed“.
Adele, known for her ballads steeped in grief and nostalgia, marked her musical comeback last year with her fourth studio album, 30. With it, she topped charts around the world, BTA recalls. A few days ago “30” received a nomination in the top category for the best album of the main “Grammy” music awards.
Today, foreign publications write that although her series of appearances has started successfully, problems are already taking shape behind the scenes of the show. According to them, the laureate of several prestigious awards was not satisfied with the otherwise luxurious apartment that “Caesars Palace” made available to her for the next four months. The hotel management allegedly provided her with an apartment at the Palazzo Suits del Rio Casino, complete with a personal butler to be at her 24-hour service, but she refused to stay there.
Instead, she chose to stick with her partner Rich Paul and son Angelo at rival chain Wynn. There, the three moved into a bungalow-type building occupying 300 square meters of the complex’s golf course, which has its own bar. According to many, he chose to stay there with his loved ones for the privacy the building offers, as it is accessed from a separate private driveway that other guests cannot access.
However, his decision is a serious blow to the prestigious image of “Cesars Palace”, in which “Il Colosseo” hall his exhibition is hosted.
“This is really unusual… She probably thinks that anything that can give her maximum comfort is okay, but it’s not. It is logical that it should be in the place on which stage it goes, otherwise it looks strange from the side, even creepy“says a press source who recounted his unusual choice.
According to another, Adele expected to be offered to live in the Augustus Tower, the most expensive and exclusive part of the property, but as this did not happen, she decided to leave the 5-star complex. For now, her representatives refuse to officially comment on her decision, explaining the reasons.
