Adele Scraps 'Brit Awards' Show Gig, Organisers Reportedly Scrambling to Get Her Involved After 5 Year Break
- UK-born singer Adele has reportedly pulled out of her scheduled Brit Music Awards show performance on February 8 after dealing with the backlash from her postponed Las Vegas gigs
- The Sun has gathered information from an alleged source close to the Brit Awards’ organisers and has presented that the event facilitators are in an immense amount of stress as a result
- The publication shared that although Adele cancelled, Brit Awards peeps are desperately looking into having her make a virtual appearance since her presence was highly anticipated
Adele has cancelled yet another show since postponing her Las Vegas residency performances at the last minute. The singer was due to perform at the Brits for the first time since 2017, leaving organisers disappointed after pulling out.
Adele was facing major heat for her final hour US performance cancellations, so reports suggest that singing at the Brits was a move to avoid aggravating the situation further. The singer has been on an impressive press run since releasing her album, 30.
