Adele fans will have to wait a little while longer before seeing her perform in Las Vegas.
The "Easy On Me" singer, 33, was set to launch a residency at the famed Colosseum of Caesars Palace Hotel on Jan. 21, but announced via Twitter on Thursday that the shows would not be taking place just yet.
"Hi. Listen, I'm so sorry, but my show ain't ready," the singer said in a video statement as she became choked up. "We've tried absolutely everything that we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we've been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID."
Furthermore, Adele said that "half" of her team and crew have contracted the virus, making it "impossible to finish the show."
"I can't give you what I have right now," she said, teary-eyed. "And I'm gutted, I'm gutted. I'm sorry it's so last minute," Adele continued. "We've been awake for over 30 hours now, trying to figure it out."
The star noted that she and her team have "run out of time."

The songstress ensured that all dates will be rescheduled, and her team is currently working to do so.
"And I'm going to finish my show, and I'm going to get it to where it's supposed to be," she added. "I'm so sorry, it's been impossible. We've been up against so much and it just ain't ready."

We fully support Adele and are confident the show she unveils at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace will be extraordinary."
