Adele set to return for third Las Vegas residency – and could bag £1million a night
SHE is currently midway through her second Las Vegas residency, but I can reveal Adele is in talks for a THIRD stint in Sin City – and is set to bag £1million a night.
The Brit superstar is being wooed by Caesars Palace for round three of their Weekends With Adele concerts, which already net her £900,000 per show.
Her current run ends in November, but bosses want her to return again next year, thanks to huge ticket sales at the 4,000-capacity venue, and they are coming up with an even more lucrative deal.
The set-up suits Adele well, as it allows her to spend the week at her home in Los Angeles with ten-year-old son Angelo.
An industry insider tells me: “Adele has really loved performing in Vegas as it doesn’t take a toll on her family life and she still gets to see fans from all over the world.
“It’s also a lot less physically gruelling than a tour and means she can be a full-time mum from Monday to Friday.
“Bosses at Caesars Palace are desperate to sign her for another spate of gigs in the new year and are coming up with a deal she’ll find very difficult to refuse, closer to £1million a night.
Family first
“She’ll be the highest-paid female music star on the strip.
“It would make plans for a potential world tour even less likely, which would be a shame for many fans.
“But Adele wants to put her wellbeing and family first.”
On stage on Friday night, Adele told her audience she was excited about going to see Beyonce’s Renaissance World Tour in LA on Monday.
She added that she was also relieved her son had gone back to school after the summer holidays.
She told her fans: “Thank God they are back at school. I’m not going to lie, I’m exhausted.
“It’s quite a shock. You don’t want them around for ten f***ing weeks. That’s too much.
“In England it’s like six weeks, which is still a long time. And since I moved to America, it’s ten weeks.
“I have four cold sores. I am very run down.”
I’m sure the pay packet will help to cushion the blow . . .
LIAM LABEL SWAP HINTS AT REUNION
OASIS rocker Liam Gallagher’s solo efforts have been pretty impressive with a hattrick of chart-topping albums.
But despite his stellar back catalogue, I can reveal the Mancunian singer is moving record label, from Warner to Parlophone, home to his old rivals Blur and The Beatles.
The company also does the marketing for his brother Noel’s solo material.
I’m told the move could pave the way for rock’s most talked about reunion, after I previously revealed Liam’s agents Wasserman were masterminding a potential Knebworth reunion gig, which could coincide with next year’s 30th anniversary of debut album Definitely Maybe.
An insider tells me: “Having the brothers linked to the same record label would make it easier to release any new Oasis music.”
Meanwhile, Noel has publicly admitted he is dreaming about the band getting back together.
Speaking last month he said: “Me, Liam and a load of fit f***ing birds.
“It’s funny – we are all at a certain age now, my hair was a bit thicker in Oasis.
“We’d have to see what everyone’s hair was looking like.
“If you didn’t see Oasis live right up until the end, you haven’t really seen a band live.
“The thing that started on a council estate in a tiny bedroom went around the world. The songs speak for themselves.
“There is a new generation now that have taken ownership of it. Crack on, have a great time.”
The stars are aligning . . .
SHE rose to fame on Neighbours before becoming one of Hollywood’s biggest names.
Now Margot Robbie has revealed her delight that the Aussie soap is returning – and will be steamier than ever.
It comes as bosses have called in an intimacy coordinator for the first time in the soap’s 38-year history as it returns on Amazon Freevee this month.
She said: “If the plan is to make Neighbours a little racier and a little sexier, then I am behind that.
“What is important is to secure the long-term future of the show and to engage with a new audience.
“I am sure it will still be the Ramsay Street we all love – but if it’s a naughtier Ramsay Street, then that’s all good.”
RAPPERS Bbno$ and Yung Gravy would love an unlikely collaboration with a couple of crooners.
The duo, also known as Alexander and Matthew, said: “Dream collab for us would be with someone weird like Mac Demarco or Michael Buble!”
The pair, who released new album Baby Gravy 3 on Friday, have very strict riders to stay in shape on tour.
Alex said: “I have hydration tablets, ginger shots, digestive enzyme shots, low sugar green juice and a cookbook.”
And the pair revealed they would love to play Glastonbury next year after Alex smashed Reading and Leeds Festival in 2022.
Let’s hope they pack plenty of hydration tablets for Glasto.
JUSTIN Bieber loves testing fashion limits, but I fear he’s gone too far with his £280 pink Loewe sunglasses.
The Sorry hitmaker wore the crazy cat-eye shades at the US Open tennis in New York.
He and wife Hailey were celebrating after her skincare brand Rhode teamed up with Krispy Kreme donuts.
Hailey took a bite out of a limited edition pink glazed donut to seal the launch of her lip treatment.
The Biebers look tickled pink.
HARRY’S KEEN AS MUSTARD
IT looks like Harry Styles is going strong with Taylor Russell.
I revealed in July he was growing close to the actress and here he was loud and proud in an eye-catching mustard cardigan as the pair strolled hand in hand in Mayfair.
Last month Harry was seen supporting Canadian Taylor in her new stage play, The Effect, at the National Theatre.
It came after Taylor – who also starred last year in romance-horror flick Bones And All with Timothee Chalamet – was spotted in the audience for one of Harry’s Love On Tour concerts in Italy.
It seems there is a new power couple in town.
STONES FLASH THEIR DIAMONDS
ROLLING Stones fans believe the tracklist for new album Hackney Diamonds has already been leaked.
Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood will meet the press this week to tell all about the LP, their first big studio release since A Bigger Bang in 2005.
But 12 new tracks, written by Mick and Keith, have been registered on the website of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, which organises music royalties in the US.
And fans have spotted how US producer Andrew Watt – who has worked with Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber – is linked to three new songs on the album, which features cameos from Elton John and Paul McCartney.
Rumoured new song titles are said to include potential lead single Angry, Bite My Head Off, Dreamy Skies, Driving Me Too Hard and Sweet Sounds Of Heaven –- a potential tribute to the band’s late drummer Charlie Watts, who died in 2021 aged 80.
My music insider said: “There is huge buzz around the Stones’ new release, and this week full details of the album will be released.
“Mick, Keith and Ronnie recorded it in the Bahamas and New York, with Mick and Keith spending lots of time writing together.
“Mick wanted to make sure it’s one of the finest they have ever released.”
I’m hoping they tour the new music next year . . .
SISTERS FEELING RIGHT AT HAIM
CAUGHT LIVE: Haim @ All Points East Festival
HAIM capped off a cracking festival with a show-stopping headline performance at All Points East in Victoria Park, Hackney.
Sisters Este, Danielle and Alana Haim announced their arrival by belting out Fergie’s 2006 banger London Bridge, before hitting the stage in matching leather outfits.
In front of 40,000 fans last week, Haim rose to the occasion – effortlessly combining elements of soft rock, synth pop and RnB.
The siblings set the tone for a fun and chaotic show, with opening song Now I’m In It, a dance-floor friendly pop track with a powerful bassline.
Highlights included their impressive vocal harmonies on catchy girl power anthem Don’t Save Me, and the irresistible hook on hit The Wire, which had the whole crowd clapping along.
After seeing the size of the crowd, Alana said: “Don’t make me cry already guys.”
She went on to describe London as “the first place to ever embrace us, so we actually call this home”.
From the deafening applause that followed their encore song The Steps, it was clear that the whole crowd were more than happy to welcome the talented trio home.

SHEER CHEEK, LOTTIE
LOTTIE MOSS flaunted her shapely rear in these see-through trousers – and showed off quite an eyeful at the front too.
The younger half-sister of Kate Moss left little to the imagination on a night out at celebrity haunt Chiltern Firehouse, in London’s Marylebone, with Liam Payne’s girlfriend Katie Cassidy.
OnlyFans model Lottie added a crop top – and a jacket with the words: “Who cares what other people think?”
She recently said of a stint on Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating. “I had my fun, went on a few dates, kissed a few frogs.”
Let’s hope she caught the eye of her Prince Charming in this outfit.
