What Happened to Adele? Break From Music Explained

Adele’s recent announcement about her upcoming plans has left fans buzzing with speculation. The Grammy-winning artist hinted at taking a significant break after her current commitments, sparking questions about what’s next for her career.

Many are wondering what led to this decision and how long she might be away. Here’s what to know about Adele’s plans, her past breaks, and her future in music.

Why is Adele taking a hiatus from music?

Adele is preparing for a significant hiatus from her music career following the end of her Las Vegas residency. During a recent performance in Munich, the singer revealed her plans to step away from the spotlight after completing her remaining shows in Las Vegas. “I have 10 shows to do, but after that I will not see you for an incredibly long time, and I will hold you dear in my heart,” the singer said (via Sky News).

Her Las Vegas residency began in November 2022 at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Initially announced in 2021, it faced delays when Adele postponed it due to quality concerns. After rescheduling, she extended the dates through much of 2024. Her final performances are set from October 25 to November 23.

Earlier this year, Adele expressed a desire for a break from music, stating in an interview with Germany’s ZDF that she intends to explore other creative avenues and does not plan to release new music for the time being. “I want a big break after this and I think I want to do other creative things, just for a little while,” she said (via Variety). Adele has also been candid about her struggles with fame, mentioning in a February concert how unwanted attention and filming have affected her.

Is Adele quitting?

Adele is not quitting music entirely but is going on a hiatus.

This decision aligns with the pop star’s history of taking long breaks between major projects. For instance, she had a six-year gap between her albums 25 and 30. Fans are speculating about her return, recalling her dramatic comebacks after extended absences from the spotlight.
