Adele has been on an extensive world tour since releasing her latest album 25 back in 2015, but it seems that the Grammy-winning powerhouse singer may not be gracing the live stage too often in the years to come.
While performing in Auckland, New Zealand, last night (March 26), Adele hinted that her touring days may be coming to an end sooner than expected. According to the New Zealand Herald, she admitted to the crowd that "touring isn't something I'm good at," claiming that "applause makes me feel a bit vulnerable."
"I don't know if I will ever tour again," she continued. "The only reason I've toured is you. I'm not sure if touring is my bag."
According to the Herald's report, Adele battled both rain and her own emotions throughout the show. At one point she borrowed a spare poncho from someone in the crowd, while "When We Were Young" and "Someone Like You" both had the singer in tears.
The Auckland show marked the end the current leg of her world tour. The only remaining dates on Adele's live schedule are four upcoming shows at London, UK's Wembley Arena that will mark the end of the tour cycle for 25. She'll take the stage on June 28 and 29, and July 1 and 2.
