The British tabloid DailyMail recently published that Adele, the famous British singer, has rejected an offer 200 million dollars (approximately R$ 1.1 billion) to establish a residency in Macau.
The city, located on the southern coast of China, has become a popular destination for big stars in recent years. The offer was intended to secure Adele a series of exclusive shows, which would constitute one of the most expensive contracts of her career. However, the artist chose to decline the offer.
Adele, who is currently touring across Europe, performing in Munich, Germany, reportedly justified her refusal by saying she wanted to spend more time with her family.
This decision reflects a phase in her life in which the singer gives priority to her personal life over her professional commitments, even if this means giving up large sums of money. DailyMail He stressed that, for Adele, the amount offered by the Chinese businessmen was not enough to overcome her desire to be close to her son and her boyfriend.
Adele’s decision to turn down a billion-dollar offer clearly reflects her priority: her family. According to information from the DailyMailThe singer is focused on spending more time with her son, 10-year-old Angelo, and her boyfriend, Rich Paul.
Some sources claim that in recent months, Adele has received several offers of residencies and shows, especially from Asian businessmen, but that she has turned them all down. “She put her son, her boyfriend – and herself – first.“, the tabloid reports.
The singer, who has already spent a season in Las Vegas in 2022, could have earned the highest amount of her career, but it seems that family commitments have taken their toll. In several interviews, Adele has expressed her dedication to creating a healthy work-life balance.
Despite the resounding success of her Las Vegas shows, the singer has repeatedly stated that she does not want to sacrifice her presence with her family for more lucrative contracts. At the moment, Adele’s attention is focused on her personal well-being and the growth of her son, a position admired by her fans and the public.
Adele takes a break from the stage and future projects
Although the Macau residency was rejected, Adele’s future in performing also remains uncertain. She is currently performing a series of stadium shows in Europe, and rumors suggest that other locations, such as Asia and South America, are also on managers’ radars. However, nothing has been confirmed and the singer herself appears to be taking a cautious approach.
In a recent interview, Adele said she wants to take a long break after completing her current tour. “I want a big break after this and I think I want to do some other creative things, just for a little while,“, declared the singer.
This desire to slow down and focus on other creative areas seems to be a reflection of the phase Adele is going through, where the focus is not on releasing new music or embarking on major tours, but rather exploring other forms of artistic expression and, of course, spending more time with her family.
In short, the singer’s refusal of the billion-dollar offer of a residence in Macau makes it clear that, at this point in her life, no amount of money can buy her the time she wants to spend with the people she loves. This, combined with her desire to step back from the music world, indicates that the public will have to wait a little longer to see her return to the stage with a new tour or new songs.
