"When it crumbles"
Skyfall theme tune singer Adele has caused a rumble by cancelling her entire 24-date Las Vegas show — less than 24 hours before the opening night.
The 33-year-old was meant to start her residency at Caesar's Palace, having banned unvaccinated fans from attending.
She posted a tearful video on Instagram to apologise to fans who've paid up to $30,000 for a ticket plus airfares and accommodation.
"Listen, I'm so sorry, but my show ain't ready", the North Londoner said. "We've tried everything that we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we've been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID.
"Half my crew and half my team are down with COVID, and it's been impossible to finish the show. I can't give you what I have right now, and I'm gutted.
"I'm sorry this is so last minute. We've been awake for over 30 hours trying to figure it out, and we've run out of time. I'm so upset and I'm really embarrassed".
