Breaking News: Adele announces indefinite ‘break’ after her Las Vegas residency…See More 👇
British singer Adele announced on Saturday that she will be taking a “break” following her Munich residency because she needed to rest after performing for nearly three years.
The Rolling in the Deep singer looked visibly emotional during her headlining show in Germany and said, “I just need a rest. I’ve spent the last seven years building a new life for myself, and I want to live it now”.
Adele thanked the people attending her shows, adding that while she was not a very comfortable performer, she was aware that she was “very f******g good at it”.
The singer continued: “I’ve really enjoyed performing for nearly three years now, which is the longest I’ve ever done and probably the longest I would ever do. I have 10 shows left after this, back in my residency… but after that, I will not see you for an incredibly long time, and I will hold you dear in my heart for that whole length of my break and I will fantasise about these shows and any shows I’ve done for the past three years… I’ll miss you terribly… but I’ll remember these shows for eternity.”
Adele performed at a custom-built area in Munich Messe with a capacity of 80,000 people. The arena was created exclusively for her headlining shows which the singer called “a bit random, but still fabulous!” on her Instagram handle.
According to Pitchfork, the Munich concert was originally planned to be the final show of her tour, but the tour will now end with her Las Vegas residency in November due to rescheduling.
In the US, the Hello singer will perform the final 10 shows of her Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Ceasars Palace from October 25 to November 23, USA Today reported.
Adele’s residency — wherein an artist performs a number of shows at the same location — began in November 2022 and by the time it ends, she will have performed 100 shows.
Earlier this year, the multi-Grammy winner told German publication ZDF that she plans to focus on other creative endeavours, adding that she had no “plans for new music at all”.
