ADELE has revealed she is planning to tour Australia next year. But there’s a catch.
During a show in Minnesota the British singer learned there were Australians who had travelled to see her.
“I’m planning an Australian tour now,” Adele said on stage. “Why don’t we get your info and when the Sydney show happens you can come, on us.”
She then backtracked by noting “Well, if the tour happens, I always announce things when I’m not supposed to.”
However there’s one small problem — she wants to be in London when her son Angelo starts school — which will delay her availability.
“My son will be starting school then. Can you imagine me dropping my kid off at school? Crying?”
The British singer’s tour is currently scheduled to end in Mexico on November 16 with no dates for 2017 scheduled.
Australian promoters have been locked in a fierce bidding war with the singer expected to extending her tour into next year.
There was already one glitch — Adele is expected to dominate next year’s Grammy Awards, which take place on February 12, meaning she will need to be in Los Angeles for the awards.
Her album 25 was released after the eligibility period for this year’s Grammys.
There are still key markets — including Australia — where Adele has never toured.
Sources say the Australian leg is highly likely next year and she is expected to play stadiums to cope with the expected demand.
Adele has sold over 1.7 million copies of her three albums in Australia alone.
The singer suggested this tour for her 25 album will be her last for a long time.
Her previous tour was cut short due to vocal problems which resulted in surgery.
