“I love you too, I’m so sorry and I can’t wait to meet you, alright. Get your free bag – and you’re not old enough to drink, are you, so you can’t have that free drink token. Get your freebies and chat to anyone. Ask any of my team anything about the show, ask them anything about me, about the show,” the Grammy winner said.
The ‘Rolling in the Deep’ singer, while talking to the fan, added that she had “bled and fucking sweated and cried” into preparing for the show.

Adele’s ‘Weekends with Adele’ – three-month Vegas resideny was due to begin on January 21 at the Colosseum in the Caesars Palace casino. It was to celebrate her album 30.
On Friday, the singer broke down in an Instagram video, saying, “I’m so sorry, but my show ain’t ready.”
Speaking from her hotel room, she said, “We’ve tried absolutely everything we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and Covid. Half my crew and team are [ill] with Covid and still are, and it’s been impossible to finish the show. I’m gutted — I’m sorry it’s so last minute, we’ve been awake for over 30 hours trying to figure it out and we’ve run out of time. I’m so upset and I’m really embarrassed and so sorry to everyone that traveled to get [to the show]. I’m really, really sorry.”
