Adele finally jets to Las Vegas to put finishing touches to cancelled residency shows

Adele has jetted to Las Vegas to check on her cancelled residency shows.

The singer was seen boarding a private jet to Sin City to work on the long delayed residency which was due to take place in January.

The shows have now been rescheduled to November after the mum-of-one cancelled them with less than 24 hours notice.

She announced the new dates in July after thousands of fans had already been in Vegas or travelling there at the time of the announcement back in January.

It's thought the singing sensation was on her way to a private viewing of her stage, after it was rumoured she had been unsatisfied with it last time.

Adele had been set to open her Weekends with Adele show at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace back in January but cancelled at the very last minute which left fans devastated over wasted money on flights and hotels.

In July the 34-year-old took to her Instagram page to say her show will start in November as well as thanking fans for their 'patience' and revealed that priority will be given to existing ticket holders.

Alongside a show poster she said: "Words can’t explain how ecstatic I am to finally be able to announce these rescheduled shows. I truly was heartbroken to have to cancel them.

"But after what feels like an eternity of figuring out logistics for the show that I really want to deliver, and knowing it can happen, I’m more excited than ever!

"Now I know for some of you it was a horrible decision on my part, and I will always be sorry for that, but I promise you it was the right one.

"To be with you in such an intimate space every week has been what I’ve most been looking forward to and I’m going to give you the absolute best of me. Thank you for your patience, I love you Adele."

Adele will still be performing at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

As well as the 24 cancelled shows, eight new shows have been added to the schedule.

In January Adele shared a video to her Instagram to tell her followers she was cancelling the shows.

She said: "'I’m so sorry, but my show ain’t ready. 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."

During a performance at BST Festival in Hyde Park London, Adele said she was 'mortified' at having to cancel the shows, saying that she didn't want to 'let people down'.
