Adele Vegas residency: Why the singer was in tears

Adele repeatedly broke down on stage during the opening night of her residency in Las Vegas saying that being on stage scared her, according to a TMZ report. The 34-year-old singer was in front of a packed Ceasar’s Palace Colosseum on Friday night when she told the crowd that she was “so cared and nervous”.

She was crying because the residency was originally planned in January but it had to be cancelled owing to Covid concerns and disputes with the producers. She had taken the blame for it and it seemed then that the residency would not happen anymore.

The fact that it happened, and so many people attended it, made her emotional.

“I should be giving you a standing ovation. Thank you so much for coming back to me,” she told the crowd. “I really appreciate it. You look amazing and it looks just what I imagined it would look like, it’s perfect.”

“I’m so scared and nervous, but I am so happy,” she continued, adding “I don’t know what I was thinking putting piano ballads at the top of the set … hopefully over time my nerves will disappear. I would also really like to thank Caesar’s because there have been a lot of rumors and they never once asked any questions, they’ve been amazing.”
