Adele begins farewell gigs in Germany ahead of ‘big break’

Must read

Adele had to pause her first show in Munich to take off part of her dress after the arena was hit with heavy rain.

The British singer, 36, is performing a 10-date string of gigs in the German city this month in a bespoke 80,000-capacity arena, before a planned “big break” from music.

Friday night’s show was her first gig in Europe since 2016 after a two-year residency in Las Vegas.

Videos widely circulated online show two women taking the train from Adele’s dark blue floor-length dress while the Someone Like You singer addresses the crowd.

The singer says: “Sadly I have to take this gorgeous floor train off because it’s wet and heavy.”

She adds: “At least it’s not thunder and lightning. I got a weather update so they said it wasn’t going to be raining [at the] top of the show, so I thought, ‘let me wear this dress with this enormous train on it’, like a right fa—.”

The train was visibly dripping as Adele’s two helpers carried the material off stage.
