I don't get how a one night performance hurts her relationship. She literally can sit there and sing for three minutes, how much prep does that need tbh.
It's looking to me like that 2 year era comment by the label head or whatever might be wishful thinking. If the whispers are true she's not in the right place to promote.
If it's all lies and the press doing the most then it's still her team's fault for allowing this PR mess storm to start forming.

There's definitely some missing pieces here.
Adele is huge at the moment, and for her Vegas residency to just fall apart like this - it doesn't sound like a disagreement on contract terms. ANYTHING CAN BE NEGOTIATED when you're as rich as her.
And there sure does seem to be a lot of spinning going around on what actually happened.

Glad to see her dispelling the rumors surrounding her relationship and that we’ll be seeing her at the Brits after all. Wonder what this means for the future of the residency—I imagine this adds a bit of weight to the allegations about Ceasar’s Palace/Live Nation/etc. being partly to blame for the literally-last-minute postponement.

What in the Whitney and Bobby hell? I must admit, this drama is more interesting than her album.

Sis was forced to do major damage control. This is publicist 101 really, even down to her shouting out the boyfriend drama rumors.

Really happy to see everything was likely just unfounded rumours/tabloid trash. Can't wait to see her back in the UK for the BRITS and on Graham Norton!

To be fair the UK tabloids are often very scummy and among the worst in the world. For them to openly say she isn't performing at the BRITS/has pulled out when in actuality she was most probably performing all along but it just wasn't announced yet. I don't blame her!

The tabloids have been dragging her name thru the mud for almost two weeks now. I’m glad she spoke up and make the haters look like fools.

I don't know, that response from her was kind of crude and disrespectful, and doesn't really disprove anything other than confirming that she will in fact be performing at the Brit Awards.

Literally what about her post was “crude” and “disrespectful” lmao fuzzy photograph, flashing the card as if to mock her Vegas fans who spent a lot of money to go see her, all of the shade and not responding to each of the rumors and criticisms directly and concisely, etc. like, if you spent hundreds or possibly thousands to go see her the first night, only to find it was cancelled last minute, would you have a positive reaction to that post?

The response was nothing disrespectful to the fans. It was the salacious tabloids and their fake headlines making up lies. I’m sure she will clear the air on Graham's talk show. It's annoying when people get pissed when artists speak up for themselves.

I said in the OMG's thread in the Pop forum that a well-received performance would do more for the song than a music video would (i.e. like how SLY's VMA performance helped it get to #1). Hopefully 1) she performs OMG 2) does a good job and 3) the performance gets uploaded to her youtube channel.

Good for her for speaking out, but where there's smoke there is fire imo. If her performing at the BRITs was crystal clear and set in stone then she also could've showed up and thrown the metaphorical egg on the tabloids face without saying anything. The fact that she made this post makes me think she was forced to do it.

So, wait, she cries on film to apologize, and then she laughs in blurry in our faces.
Work, bi-polar bitch!

What? The ‘flashing the card’ comment here doesn’t make any sense at all. Genuine question, what does that even mean? Also, maybe let’s not joke about bi-polar simply because someone is weeping one week and smiling two weeks later. Emotions can co-exist. While I’m sure there was agreement to post something like that on social with whomever manages her accounts, there’s no way Adele would ever just “show up” to the BRITs. It would be announced beforehand. I know all we can do is speculate and that’s what everyone is doing but some of you are REACHING.

I am not OP and do not agree with them, but I think the flashing the card thing they meant because a playing card is associated with Vegas (gambling, dice, cards, etc).
