Many have cast doubt on her Covid explanation. Vegas journalist Scott Roeben, who broke the story of her residency, claimed she was insisting on tearing out the sound system at Caesar's Colosseum theater and installing her own.
'Apparently, Adele and her team refused to use the house equipment in The Colosseum,' said Roeben.
'The theatre has a massive video screen, very high tech, but Adele's team insisted upon an entirely new system – a larger screen, essentially built a few inches in front of the existing screen.
'Such demands not only drive up production costs but, at a time when supplies are disrupted, it's a recipe for disaster – in this case last-minute delays or cancellations.
'I also hear from a source that Caesars had to replace the cutting edge Meyer sound system and replace it with a different system for her.'
MailOnline has contacted a representative for further comment.

No. Residency term is not used in that way as in resident of nevada.
They could have made some big bucks by suing. Hotel california has raked in mega bucks for the writers.
the most fun concert I ever attended had lots of dancing, good vocals, costumes and was totally enjoyable: Al Yankovich.
Adele’s place in the world has gotten to much for her to cope with. Too much pressure, too great expectations.
Same thing Barbra Streisand has had to endure and why she hardly ever performed live through the years. Tremendous amount of pressure to give the very height of perfect singing. And the thing with Barbra is she could always deliver with her phenomenal voice.
Adele delivered too in the past for her live audiences. But it seems like her stratospheric career is now putting pressure beyond what she can deal with.
My nerves would totally break trying to perform as they do live. Adele might wish she could just go back to the small clubs in London again and sing jazz.
I would go that far, they were on good terms.
Weird Al’s show was definitely one of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
“her team refused to use the house equipment in The Colosseum.”
Jerks. Wishing to replace electronics in Las Vegas is the proof of ignorance and foolishness. Las Vegas has the best of everything: sound systems, food delivery systems, air systems, etc.
Her music never resonated with me but I do respect her vocals. Simplicity would probably be best — she doesn’t need all the effects and frills.
But I understand how stressed out she may be. Probably a major perfectionist in terms of her aesthetic vision. Not fun to be under so much pressure and have anything less than what you see as best to settle for.
“I saw a guy standing at a highway offramp in snowing 15 deg weather begging for money to live on today.”
The guy needs a bus ticket to go to Southern California.
If you are gonna be homeless, no sense to freeze where it is cold!
I like people who can just sing with out all the fuss we read about like these 2 guys and gal.

Weird Al traveled by bus and had semi trailers carting his equipment. He went to the smaller towns as well.
He took the concert to the people. Good Man.
Just think how much better the Rat Pack would have been with flashy pyrotechnics and big screens! (jk)
I’m always surprised by the fireworks and big screens. Hasn’t everybody seen all that many times and tired of it? It gets SO boring.
