HER Las Vegas residency may have got off to a shoddy start after she pulled the plug at the last minute.

But Adele is making sure her shows at Caesars Colosseum in Las Vegas will end with a bang — after confirming she was extending the run until November.

During an emotional final performance on Saturday, before she will return to perform in June, Adele said she felt the residency was a highlight of her career and admitted the shows — which have seen her sell more than 100million records worldwide — had given her back a purpose.

She explained: “I feel so safe in here. My life is tiny.

“I don’t really leave my house and that’s by choice.

“My life used to be massive when I was younger.

“But it is like the bigger my career has got, the more scared and ­anxious I have become.

“I hang out with my dogs, my son and my boyfriend, and chat away with my housekeeper.

“On Friday and Saturdays, I really look forward to coming [to Vegas] and it feels like having a night out and seeing my friends.

“It’s brought me back to life.

“I usually get butterflies and get nervous and I say a little stage prayer and cross my fingers.

“But I don’t get anxious with these shows.

“It has been the best four months of my career.”

She added: “This show has brought me so much joy. I have loved doing it.

“It has been such a wonderful surprise how much I have loved it, because I am such an anxious performer.”

Adele became emotional as she opened up about her cancellation at the start of last year, adding: “It was the worst thing I’d ever felt in my career.

“And the f***ing s**t people were saying about me. Jesus Christ.

“People are mean. “They wanted me to f***ing die.”

Defiant Adele, who comes from Tottenham, then continued: “I came back and, as usual, I smashed it.

“That was definitely the London woman. You definitely cannot take that out of me ever.”

The Someone Like You singer also opened up about her decision to put on a residency, and revealed her relationship with American sports agent Rich Paul was a major driving factor.

Adele said: “I could not have gone on tour.

“I ­cannot leave this life that I am trying to build.

“The convenience of this, as selfish as it might sound, has been wonderful, because for me it’s the best of both worlds.”

To counter this, Adele has revealed she will film a special one-off show in June for fans worldwide — a move to help those who cannot afford to fly to Sin City and fork out thousands for a seat.

Sipping a glass of wine, Adele said that after her second run of gigs finishes in November, she will be stepping out of the spotlight.

She added: “I am going have a break and you won’t really hear from me.

“Because you know what, I am like — I am an absolute recluse.”
