Adele bids emotional farewell to Las Vegas residency: “I will miss you terribly”
Adele marked the end of her Weekends With Adele residency at Caesars Palace with an emotional farewell during her 100th show on Saturday. The 36-year-old British singer, whose residency began in November 2022, expressed heartfelt gratitude to her fans, saying, “It’s been wonderful, and I will miss it terribly.” The residency, which featured sell-out performances at the 4,000-seat Colosseum, solidified Adele’s iconic status but also left her contemplating a “big break” from music after its conclusion.
The Grammy-winning artist reflected on the impact of her Vegas run, including a touching encounter with her idol, Celine Dion. Adele shared that seeing Dion in the audience provided “closure,” describing the moment as “full circle” since Dion’s performances inspired her to pursue the residency. Footage from the shows captured their emotional embrace, with Adele visibly moved by the legendary singer’s presence.
Adele has long expressed admiration for Dion, famously calling her “Queen Celine” on social media. Dion reciprocated the sentiment, previously sharing her love for Adele in a heartfelt Instagram post. As Adele steps away from the stage for an extended break, her residency will be remembered as a career milestone, blending powerful performances and personal triumphs.
