Rolling in the dollars! Now Adele is set to double her £130million fortune with a residency in Las Vegas and commute by private jet from her LA home
Her bank balance is an eye-watering £130 million, but Adele is now set to double her fortune in Las Vegas.
The Mail on Sunday can reveal that the Rolling In The Deep singer is currently in discussions to join the long list of superstars – including Elvis Presley and Mariah Carey – to achieve a richly rewarded concert residency in Sin City.
Sources close to the 33-year-old say she has been attempting to recruit band members who are willing to make the long-term commitment.
If she manages to strike a deal, it would allow her to remain living full-time in Los Angeles and do the 40-minute commute by private jet to the gambling capital.

One source said: 'Adele has very recently been talking to musicians that she has worked with before to gauge their availability, to see whether they could be in Vegas for the gigs.
'It is all very exciting. It would make her a lot of money but it would also mean she could have a routine. It would be hugely lucrative for her but also really fun.
'She loves performing live and there would be no shortage of people travelling to see her once the Covid restrictions are dropped.'
The singer hasn't been on the road since 2017, when her 120-date world tour grossed £127 million.
