A problem with her voice forces her to stop for the entire month of March.
“Sadly, I have to take some time and put my Las Vegas residency on pause,” he begins in his note. “I was sick at the end of the last stage [enero y febrero] and throughout the break [en Navidad]. I hadn't had the chance to fully regain my health before the shows resumed, and now I'm sick again, and unfortunately that has taken a toll on my voice,” she explains. “Therefore, by doctors' orders, I have no choice but to rest thoroughly.”
Adele explains that “the remaining five weekends of this part [de la residencia] They will be postponed to a later date.” “We are already working on the details and we will send you the information as soon as possible,” he explains, explaining that the postponed dates are March 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, 23, 29 and 30.

I don't get the notes properly. I haven't slept very well and my chest is burning,” she stated, explaining: “After this show I'm going to take a vocal break… Can you imagine how difficult it is for me not to speak for three days? “I'm going to go to bed coughing and have a complete rest for my voice,” he commented, joking that both his son and his partner were “total talkers” and that he was going to have to lock himself in a cupboard to be able to be in bed. silence.
Residencies in Las Vegas, with concerts scheduled months in advance, are big business for established artists. Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley were among the first to make them. Céline Dion, the queen of the city of casinos and who changed the concept of these concerts, banishing the idea that they were an elephant graveyard, has earned more than 600 million dollars thanks to them. Lady Gaga had one in 2018 and U2 has premiered the famous and immense City Sphere with another.
