Singer: The news comes after Perry added 16 more concert dates to her popular Play Las Vegas residency in January and, again, last week for additional dates in June

The singer, Katy Perry, has recently announced the addition of 16 more concert dates to her highly popular Play Las Vegas residency. This news comes after she had previously expanded the residency in January and again last week for additional dates in June. According to a tweet from Perry, these additional shows were added due to popular demand. This increase in performance dates is set to result in significant earnings for the singer, who was already projected to make $168 million from the initial 32 shows. In addition to the extended schedule, Katy and her team have invested heavily in creating an extravagant Perry Playland set and fantastical costumes. Throughout the show, Katy showcases a total of eight different looks, including a striking white mini dress, a pink PVC dress paired with a hat inspired by a toadstool, and a pink Cleopatra-style gown that she emerges from a keyhole wearing.

Moving forward, June 8 will be Katy Perry Day in Clark County

Starting from June 8, Clark County will officially celebrate Katy Perry Day. In light of the recent global pandemic, Katy cleverly incorporated symbols related to the virus into her performance. She included oversized props such as a giant mask and toilet rolls, symbolizing the panic-induced hoarding of essentials that occurred at the onset of the crisis last year.

Katy’s performances were nothing short of extraordinary, with captivating elements like a keyhole, ducks, a life-size face mask, and even an eye-catching neon toilet, from which the singer boldly emerged. As Katy Perry’s presence continues to thrive in the bustling city of Las Vegas, it seems that Adele’s anticipated arrival is losing its momentum even before it began.

Experts have praised the show for its touching moments and its blend of whimsy and mind-expanding visuals, as depicted in a photograph from December 2021.

Mega bucks: The added dates will mean huge earnings for the California Gurls singer who was already set to pocket $168million for the initial 32 performance run

Big money: The expanded schedule will result in massive profits for the singer of “California Gurls,” who was already expected to earn $168 million for the first 32 shows.

In an emotional announcement back in January, the 33-year-old singer revealed that her show in Las Vegas was not ready to go on, disappointing her fans who had been eagerly anticipating the performances. Speculation arose that the cancellation was a result of a heated dispute with esteemed set designer Esmerelda Devlin, revolving around a daring swimming pool stunt. Although she blamed the sudden cancellation on the ongoing Covid situation, it now appears uncertain whether her ‘Weekends with’ residency will ever come to fruition, as the sets for her shows were seen being dismantled at the venue. Despite promising to reschedule the dates for later in the year, it has been four months since the cancellation, and there has been no update from the star’s team regarding the postponed shows, leaving ticket-holders in limbo.

They felt left in the dark after the songstress’s recent absence, with many labeling the prolonged delay of her highly anticipated Las Vegas residency as “bogus” and “diva-like.” Originally planned to commence on January 21 at Caesar’s Palace, the 12-week extravaganza titled “Weekends with Adele” faced a sudden diversion. Just a day prior to its grand opening, Adele made the unexpected announcement of its postponement, attributing the decision to the ongoing impact of the relentless COVID-19 pandemic.

What a mess: Perry's expanded residency comes as Adele fans are growing increasingly concerned that the British songbird may never kick off her own highly anticipated residency after she pulled the plug on the shows hours before it was slated to debut in January

What a chaotic situation it is when we consider Perry’s recent extended residency. Meanwhile, Adele fans have started expressing growing worries over the possibility that the talented British singer may never embark on her own highly anticipated residency. This concern emerged after Adele unexpectedly canceled her shows just a few hours before they were scheduled to premiere in January.

Numerous fans were left in a frustrating situation when Adele’s performance was unexpectedly canceled, resulting in financial losses due to the expenses they had incurred on tickets and travel arrangements. Seeking clarity and seeking refunds, disappointed fans have taken to various platforms such as Adele’s official Twitter, her fan page Adele Access, and Ticketmaster to voice their concerns. On Twitter, one disgruntled fan expressed their decision to request a refund for the Adele Vegas show, highlighting the lack of information on rescheduled dates even after four months. The fan also lamented the current exorbitant flight prices, indicating that the overall investment is no longer justifiable. Another tweet urged the prompt rescheduling of the residency shows to facilitate the process of obtaining refunds for purchased tickets.
