Adele is back!
The superstar kicked off her long-awaited Las Vegas residency ‘Weekends with Adele’ last night (November 18) at the Colosseum in Caesars Palace.
And it was a seismically spectacular affair.
Initially set to kick off in January, the concert series was dramatically postponed one day before its original start date. A controversial move that made headlines worldwide. And not headlines of positive persuasion.
However, the British belter has continued to stand strong in her stance that delaying the residency was the right decision and, looking at the end result, it’s hard to disagree with that sentiment.
The diva’s setlist was quite the hit list. Indeed, launching with 2015’s ‘Hello,’ it fused smashes from the length and breadth of her catalog – with cuts such as ‘Rolling In The Deep,’ ‘Someone Like You,’ and ‘When We Were Young.’ New album ’30’ also received ample love by way of live offerings of chart-topper ‘Easy On me,’ ‘Oh My God,’ and ‘I Drink Wine.’
As well as delivering a stunning production (complete with 180-degree screens, fire, and raining polaroids of rare pictures), Adele brought her trademark humor to the stage – randomly remarking how excited she was about the finale of ‘The Walking Dead.’
What’s for sure is that excitement around ‘Weekends With Adele’ is very much alive.
