Adele Reveals She’s Taking a “Big Break” From Music; Is the GRAMMY Winner Headed to ‘American Idol’?

While only releasing four studio albums throughout her years in the music industry, Adele made every song count as she sold over 120 million albums worldwide. That success was followed by numerous awards including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and several Grammy Awards. Considered one of the best-selling music artists in the world, it appears that Adele might want to take a break from the spotlight in the near future.

Having held a residency in Las Vegas, Adele entertained millions of fans who traveled to Sin City to see her perform in person. While loving her time with fans, the singer recently explained on the German Broadcast ZDF that it would be a long time before she released any new music. Instead, she insisted, “I don’t have any plans for new music at all. I want a big break after all this and I think I want to do other creative things just for a little while.” She added, “You know, I don’t even sing at home at all. How strange is that?”

With fame seeming to follow Adele wherever she went, the singer also discussed the joys of being anonymous. As her fame grows, it appears almost impossible for Adele to go anywhere without being noticed. “I don’t like being famous. I love making music and that people are receptive to it and like it…but the fame side of it, I absolutely hate and I miss everything about who I was [before becoming a celebrity].”

Adele Heads To Munich For Special Concerts And Maybe ‘American Idol’

Outside of wanting to take some time off, Adele currently looks to Munich, where she will helm a handful of concerts. With Munich needing to build a temporary stadium to house the concerts, the star shared her excitement about her performance, writing on Instagram, “I was too curious to not follow up and indulge in this idea — a one off, bespoke pop-up stadium designed around whatever show I want to put on? Ohh!? Pretty much slap bang in the middle of Europe? In Munich? That’s a bit random, but still fabulous!”

While Adele suggested she wanted to take some time off, the singer might be confusing fans as she shared a love for American Idol. With Katy Perry leaving the show to get back to the recording studio, fans wondered who would take her spot. Although the producers remain silent on the matter, it seems Adele might want an opportunity as a source told Heat World, “Her team was still shocked when she said she was interested in doing TV work and that she had her eye on Katy’s spot on ‘American Idol.’”

With Adele looking to take a break, that break might only focus on music as she could take the stage again, but this time on American Idol. Still, as of now, any interest between Adele and American Idol—or vice versa—is just buzz.
