Isn’t it well known that she hates performing? I was shocked that she even agreed to a televised appearance let along a whole Vegas residency.

It was won’t be ARTPOP because 30 has already broken records for being number 1 and is already a massive success. But the hits to her reputation are coming like Taylors pre reputation era. 

ARTPOP was the second best selling female album of 2013 and birthed Gaga’s biggest radio hit. The hate train was way too strong for y’all to forget that I guess.

Adele will be FINE. She's always been idiosyncratic and I admire her for that... A true artist if there is one. :heart:

She said the show's not ready, it's not ready. It's her show!

No other superstar would have the guts to cancel the ENTIRE 3-month residency the DAY before it started, and not for health reasons.

(Did anyone complain when Celine postponed her residency and canceled her tour due to severe muscle spasms?? No.)

It's not just the backlash... It's tens of MILLIONS in lost income!

And since COVID is not covered by cancellation insurance, who's on the hook for MILLIONS of dollars already spent on sets, set design, etc.?

Caesars Palace and Live Nation are reportedly trying to get her to reschedule ASAP. She'll lay low for a while, and come back with an amazing show!

If this is true, I sincerely hope she's doing okay. The overblown negativity that's been coming her way after being bulletproof in the press for so long must be incredibly jarring.

It’s because of her residency and the mixed news about why it was postponed. Her team says covid but other sources are saying because she wasn’t satisfied with production equipment being used. If that’s the case, thousands of people paid so much in expenses to see her and it’s messed up that IF she were being that much of a diva, the audience have to suffer the loss from it. 

I think it's blown out of proportions by UK TABLOIDS. They're going after the the UK's biggest star because she moved to the U.S. with her family! 🙂

The GP loves Adele! The only people upset with her are a fraction of the 4,000+ fans who had tickets to the first show and traveled to Vegas before they got the email. 

Yes, the UNIONS are not happy. The Service Employees International Union (@ SEIU) tweeted in support of Vegas musicians on Jan 25. So?? She'll work with union musicians from now on!

Postponing and canceling shows is nothing new for Adele. She said she's "terrible" at touring and couldn't get insured until the 2nd leg of her 3rd tour, but she WAS insured when she had to cancel (again) in 2017! 

In fact, a few weeks ago, I used her as an example that it's perfectly fine to cancel shows at the last minute for health reasons. Nobody cares about ancient history. You're only as good as your last tour/residency! 

If Adele can get insurance, ANYONE can. 🙂

For the MONEY?? Tens of millions for 3 months. Same reason everyone else is in Vegas or touring. Either that, or a gig on The Voice! 🙂

Adele has said more than once she has stage fright and throws up before concerts. Some artists love to perform... but they're not doing $25 concerts either.

It's a JOB for them! We shouldn't look down on female artists just because they want to make as much money as possible while they can. 

Ageism is a thing, and the biological clock is a fact of life!

this whole era been a mess compared to her usually perfect and polished routine she does every 5 years. it’s kinda like ARTPOP: universal critical acclaim and then sudden bad press and criticism which you can’t handle because it’s never really happened before. 

she kicked off the promo with snl but the album was delayed so she kinda came and fizzled out for a bit.

then easy on me dropped which wasn’t anywhere as good as her other lead singles imo.

 then the album actually came with huge hype but was met with mixed reactions - i do like it, but it took me many listens to get into it and it’s still kinda boring to me.

then the huge negative press from the hyde park event because of prices and stuff, now the vegas drama. even if your entire team has covid, you have emergency plans to deal with that kinda thing… if it’s because she wasn’t happy with the show - that a whole other mess cancelling last minute when some people were already in vegas to see you. 

nearly everything has been messy from the start and i don’t think she can handle the negativity well. i do hope she’s feeling okay and has the support she needs. it just doesn’t feel like she was in the right headspace to release an album and be back in the spotlight so soon after that huge divorce. 

i don’t speak german but i wish i could.

I mean after her last world tour she said she never wanted to tour again so I’m not surprised that she’s getting cold feet this time around..

In a note to fans in 2017 she said, “Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn’t suit me particularly well,” she continues. “I’m a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things.

Does anyone think all this negative backlash is a product of the time this is happening for her? I doubt her postponing/canceling things would have gotten this big of deal if it was pre Covid. Consumers are very particular about being screwed right now (even if they get refunded) and the media is running with it.
