Adele residency thrown into doubt as Caesars Palace axe theatre staff despite singer promising 2022 dates
ADELE’s Las Vegas residency has hit fresh delays after the theatre laid off its workers for the summer.
The British pop superstar, 34, said in February that her spectacular “has to happen this year”.
She hinted at plans to have a baby in 2023.
But union officials representing staff at the Colosseum confirmed members of the team had been told to go home until September.
Sir Rod Stewart then begins his residency at the venue within the Caesars Palace hotel and casino complex.
There had been talk of Adele moving her performances to nearby Planet Hollywood — but that has shows until nearly Christmas, inclu- ding gigs by John Legend and Shania Twain.
Adele cancelled her planned series of performances in January just hours before her opening night — sobbing in a video message to fans that the shows were “not ready”.
She later promised to reschedule the dates, and told telly chat host Graham Norton: “It is absolutely 100 per cent happening this year.”

She added: “Imagine if I have to cancel because I am having a baby!”
Fans who bought tickets have been increasingly frustrated by the lack of information about rescheduled dates.
The singer is set to put on two shows at the British Summer Time festival in London’s Hyde Park next month.
