British superstar Adele cried on Saturday night as she played her 100th and final show in Las Vegas.

She has spent the past two years playing a weekend residency at the 4,000-capacity Caesars Palace.

Throughout her residency she often interacted with fans, but has indicated that the experience has been emotionally draining.

, she also said she plans to take a “big break” from music after her current run of concerts.

Videos from inside the venue on Saturday show Adele getting emotional during the concert and crying as she bid farewell to Vegas.

“I’m so sad this residency is over but I am so glad that it happened, I really, really am,” she said.

“I will miss it terribly, I will miss you terribly. I don’t know when I next want to perform again,” she added.

Adele made a point of meeting fans during her residency at Caesars Palace

Adele’s Vegas residency was initially set to start in January 2022, but was cancelled just 24 hours before the first show was due to begin following a Covid outbreak among production staff and delays in finishing the set.

It began later that year, and she performed every Friday and Saturday.

There have been plenty of memorable moments over the years, including her bursting into tears

The two singers then shared a hug in the Colosseum Theatre at Caesars Palace, a venue originally built for Dion’s 2003 debut residency.

Adele is known to idolise the ********* icon, while Dion has also spoken in glowing terms about Adele.

The London-born singer – whose albums 19, 21, 25 and 30 have all been massive worldwide successes – also made headlines when she defended a fan who was told to sit down at one of her Vegas concerts.

The audience member was singing along enthusiastically to Water Under the Bridge when another fan sitting behind him and a security guard told him he was blocking the view.

Adele spotted that and paused the song, telling the guard to “leave him alone”.

The fan used a selfie stick to record the interaction, which he later

He also thanked the star for “standing up for me”.

However, not every Vegas concert has gone to plan.

In June, Adele angrily cursed an audience member who allegedly yelled “Pride sucks” during one of her shows.

“Did you come to my… show and just say that Pride sucks?” she scolded. “Don’t be so… ridiculous.

“If you have nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?”

The 36-year-old later admitted she got easily riled up these days, adding that she was “old and grumpy now”.

.

“My tank is quite empty at the minute,” the star told ******* broadcaster ZDF.

“I don’t have any plans for new music at all,” she said.

“I want a big break after all this and I think I want to do other creative things just for a little while.

“You know, I don’t even sing at home at all. How strange is that?”

Adele added one of the reasons she wanted to take a break from music is because of a struggle with the limelight.

“I miss everything about before I was famous, I think probably being anonymous the most,” she said.

“I like that I get to make music all the time, whenever I want to, and people are receptive to it and like it. That’s pretty unimaginable. But the fame side of it, I absolutely hate.

“The fact that people are even interested in my songs and my voice is pretty wild. I don’t think it ever gets normal. So it’s worth it, the balance.”

Her career break has been a long time in the making. In 2022, Adele said she wanted to study for an English Literature degree once she left Las Vegas for the last time.

During a Q&A session with fans in Los Angeles she said: “If I hadn’t made it singing, I think I would be an English lit teacher.”

She added: “I definitely think I use my passion for English lit in what I do. I wish I’d gone to university and had that experience, but I will do it online with a tutor.”

She continued: “That’s my plan for 2025, just to get the qualification”.
