Adele may be dropping the mic, literally.
In a tweet Friday night, the singer canceled the final two shows of her tour, a tour she had hinted might be her last, because of damaged vocal cords.
“On medical advice I simply am unable to perform over the weekend. To say I’ m heart broken would be a complete understatement, ” she wrote.
Adele had already told fans her current ‘Live” tour could be her last.
“Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn’ t suit me particularly well. I’ m a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things, ” Adele wrote in a letter posted to Instagram this week. “Plus I’ m dramatic and have a terrible history of touring… I only ever did this tour for you and to hopefully have an impact on you the way that some of my favourite artists have had on me live. And I wanted my final shows to be in London because I don’ t know if I’ ll ever tour again and so I want my last time to be at home.”
This isn’ t the first time the Grammy winner, who has talked about her struggles with stage fright, has suggested she’s done touring.
“I don’ t know if I will ever tour again, ” Adele said during a show in New Zealand in March. “The only reason I tour is you.”
Adele also took time off after becoming a mother in 2012.
“My main thing is Mum, then it’s me, then it’s work, ” Adele told Vogue last year. “I think I had to take the right amount of time off to let people miss me. I didn’ t miss being in the spotlight.”
Adele may be leaving the spotlight for the foreseeable future, but she left the door open for another hello.
“I will always come back, and I will always write music, ” the star reportedly said as she left a packed stadium following her Wembley show on Wednesday night.
