Adele is having a huge 2022 despite being canceled from Las Vegas residency
Adele has found huge success in 2022 despite the postponement of her Las Vegas residency.
The singer was due to play 24 shows from January to April but announced she was postponing them as she felt she wasn’t ready.
Despite calling the moment the “worst moment” of her career, Adele had a hugely successful 2022 following the release 30 last November – their first album in six years.
The album reached #1 in 20 countries and spent five weeks at the top of the UK Official Albums Chart.
In the week of release, the album track “Easy On Me” charted at number 1, while “Oh My God” charted at number two.
The singer also won three Brits for Artist of the Year, Song of the Year (for “Easy On Me”) and Album of the Year earlier this year.
Her success brought her total number of Brits to 12 awards.
Over the summer, Adele headlined Hyde Park, marking her first comeback to live performances in the UK since headlining Glastonbury in 2016.
The singer has also received multiple nominations for the 2023 Grammys, including Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Pop Solo Performance, Song of the Year, Best Music Video, and Record of the Year.
Adele will begin her long-awaited residency on Friday 18th November and it will run over weekends through March 2023.

The singer revealed on Thursday (November 17) that she was nervous ahead of the shows’ opening night.
The 34-year-old posted a picture of herself on Instagram with a lengthy caption.
“As I write this, I feel very different. I’m very emotional, incredibly nervous, but I can’t sit still because I’m so excited,” Adele wrote.

“I’ve always been scared of shows and I take it as a good sign because it means I care and I just want to do a good job,” she said.
“Maybe it’s because I didn’t start when I was supposed to. Maybe it’s because it’s premiere, maybe it’s because Hyde Park did so great, maybe it’s because I love the show, I don’t know.
“It’s safe to say I’ve never been more nervous before a show in my career, but at the same time I wish today was tomorrow! I can’t wait to see you out there,” she added.
Tickets for the performances in the Colosseum at Caesars Palace were in great demand and sold out within minutes.
