Rumor: Adele Residency Coming to Resorts World
Originally published at Vital Vegas
We shared Celine Dion was doing at residency at Resorts World a full year before it was officially announced, now we’ve got another juicy rumor: Adele is slated for a Resorts World residency, too.
Adele has been circling a Las Vegas residency for some time, having been spotted checking out Park MGM at one point. But we hear Resorts World finally won the prize of working with this award-winning songstress. We understand her residency could start as soon as January 2022. Adele was once in talks with Wynn resort for a residency, and would presumably have made $500,000 a show. We expect Resorts World has struck an even more lucrative deal. Adele has sold more than 120 million albums, a feat made all the more impressive given the fact we didn’t realize albums were still a thing.
The Adele residency at Resorts World, the newest casino megaresort on the Las Vegas Strip, has yet to be confirmed or announced. Back when Resorts World opened, we noted a conspicuous space on a wall promoting the resort’s line-up of headliners. Now, we know who will join Celine, Carrie Underwood, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan.
We trust everyone but us knew Adele’s full name is Adele Laurie Blue Adkins. It appears Adele has overcome her concerns a Las Vegas residency will affect her voice. She was probably comforted by the fact Celine will share the venue, and Celine’s exacting requirements at the Colossuem included an “atmospheric bubble” that kept the humidity at a consistent 55 percent. Details of the Adele residency at Resorts World aren’t available yet, but we’re pretty sure she’s going to be belting out all her biggest hits, including “Hello,” “Rolling in the Deep,” “Skyfall” and “Someone Like You.” Resorts World is swinging for the fences with its residencies, despite the fact the Resorts World theater isn’t finished yet.
