Adele takes Vegas

BETTER late than never Adele kicked off her Las Vegas residency last night and told fans they are seeing “the absolute best” of her. Originally due to start last January, Adele wasn’t happy with how the stages looked and now she said: “There was just no soul in it. “The stage setup wasn’t right. It was very disconnected from me and my band, and it lacked intimacy.

“And maybe I tried too hard to give it those things in such a controlled environment. “It was the worst moment in my career by far.” Tickets are going for as much as £32,000 on re-sale sites.
