but we are working our asses off, literally 24 hours a day.

lol gimme a break, there's no way in hell the tax hating sis is working that much. Learn how to use literally, Adele.

[marzipanism]

I believe it was 24 hrs of hard work

I just don't believe the "we"

[erin805]

Exactly, someone was working it just wasn’t her

I feel like it's really stupid to wear a rock that size on *that* finger and then be all "oh no, I'm not engaged!"

[maidenhell]

It's definitely a way to distract from the conversation about her being a mess. PR tactic, imo.

[gloeden2]

ONTD acting like this woman reached in their pockets and took their coins and cheated them. LMAO.
"She's lying! Grrr! The nerve!"
The brokeness of it all.

What? She literally did that tho, there were ppl here that bought tix.

[nigelwitthebrie]

Not only that but non-refundable plane tickets and uncancellable hotel reservations:/

[mahgie]

which ain't cheap

[cbluechicken]

I mean, sure but I feel like she had an idea it was not going to work well before the night before. I still feel bad for people who got there the day of.

[trendsnational]

How did they not even have dress reheasals????

[melancolour]

they did. adele didnt go.

[trendsnational]

Seriously?????

[vibeology_e]

All of this could be true but it should have been apparent that they needed to cancel much sooner than the day before the first show. If the set pieces aren’t there, how do you set up the lighting? Other reports said they hadn’t decided to use a choir or not so how do you set up a soundboard? If you’re not running rehearsals with these elements in place a week before the first show at the very latest how can you not cancel right away?

So either she’s unprofessional or lying. Or I guess so lazy that she didn’t plan to rehearse at all. None of those are good options.

[blazingeternity]

This. Cancelling on the day of or one day before makes sense when something urgent and unexpected happened, but "Oops, we haven't set up anything or decided on a choir yet!" on literally the day before opening is not an unexpected event...

[maidenhell]

There was a really great exhibit at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London a few years ago (not sure if it's permanent). Walking through, it allowed the visitor to see every facet of thought and consideration that goes into a production from initial concepting to costumes to sound to stage set-up to lighting. There is NO WAY IN HELL this was all done last minute. None.

The thing I most remember from this exhibit was a replica of Kylie Minogue's dressing room for one of her tours. It was so interesting.

[aprilonestt]

It's not exactly a replica. She donated the dressing room in full to them after the tour, the V&A photographed every inch and keeps it exactly as she left on the last day of the tour. I love seeing it, every time I go there you got something new to look at... You can still see it at the Theatre and performance section
