A powerhouse voice and profound lyrics have skyrocketed Adele to superstar status – since her debut album “19,” she’s continued to surpass milestones in the music industry, and it doesn’t look like she’s stopping anytime soon. The week “25” dropped, she made a whopping 3,378,000 sales, making her the artist with the highest first-week album sales of all time in the US. Hits like “Rolling in the Deep” and “Someone Like You” have made Adele a very wealthy woman over the years.
As of 2021, Adele’s net worth was approximately $190 million. That was before she started earning money from her Las Vegas residency with over 100 dates. She reportedly made $2 million for each show during that residency.
After spending so much of her life under the public eye, she revealed that she would plan a hiatus. While we wait for the next hit, let’s take a look at just how lavish Adele’s life really is.
Adele is known for throwing expensive, elaborate parties
Adele’s parties are epic – in 2019, she hosted a memorable Christmas Party for her loved ones and friends, and her 30th birthday had a “Titanic” theme. The venue had a replica of the 90s movie’s iconic grand staircase. As lavish as that party was, she somehow topped it when she threw a 31st birthday party with a “Great Gatsby” theme. The venue? The mansion that “The Godfather” was filmed at.
She bought Sylvester Stallone’s house for $58 million
Adele didn’t grow up rich – she was raised in a simple flat in London, but she’s come a long way. In 2022, the songstress bought a stunning LA mansion that once belonged to Sylvester Stallone. It came with a $58 million price tag. Stallone revealed that Adele only wanted the house if it came as a package deal with a Rocky statue that stood near the property’s gigantic home. The home had 12 bathrooms, eight bedrooms, a library, office, gourmet kitchen, full bar, cigar room, and a dining room with painstakingly hand-painted walls that made it look like a castle.
She has an impressive collection of luxury cars
With fame comes many product endorsement offers, and while companies may have wanted her to be the face of a car, she turned them down. Instead, she became a personal collector of a fleet that includes a Range Rover Vogue, Mercedes Maybach, and Bentley Continental GT. That eight-car garage certainly isn’t going to waste! Her Bentley even has a jaw-dropping £5,445 sound system.
For a Munich performance, Adele had a stadium built just for her
When Adele was invited to be part of a residency in Munich, Germany, she agreed, but only if she could design a stadium from scratch that was built specifically for her wants and needs. She described it as a “bespoke pop-up stadium,” and it cost £100,000 to build. It featured a gigantic wraparound screens with an 80,000 person capacity.
She jets off to holiday destinations with famous friends
If you make hundreds of millions of dollars, why not go on as many luxury vacations as you can? In 2019 and early 2020, she traveled around the Caribbean with James Corden and Harry Styles. A bartender on social media revealed that Adele left a $2,020 tip. Two years later, Adele had a luxurious yacht vacation in Sardinia. She was photographed in a $1,500 outfit.
You can catch Adele courtside
The UK isn’t exactly known for its basketball culture, but you can often catch Adele courtside alongside celebrities like Mary J. Blige and her boyfriend, Rich Paul, who reps many famous players. Paparazzi snapped a shot of Adele wearing a huge cheetah-print coat and looking a bit bored, but the singer says she hates having the spotlight on her when she’s in such a visible front row spot. She claims she was keeping an eye out for Michael Jourdan and admitted to Billboard that her face is “just very meme-able.”
Adele often gets custom looks from high-end designers
If there’s one thing Adele knows besides making music, it’s rocking a fabulous outfit. You could catch some of her high-end looks at her residency in Las Vegas, where she wore custom looks from designers like Prada, Zuhair Murad Haute Couture, and Dolce & Gabbana. At her 2022 performance in London’s Hyde Park, she wore a breathtaking black custom Schiaparelli dress that Daniel Roseberry designed. And finally, for the 2023 Grammys, she left her usual preference of black outfits for a red velvet Louis Vuitton gown designed by Nicolas Ghesquiere.
Adele’s engagement ring cost a fortune
Adele has been with sports agent Rich Paul since 2021. The two started dating only months after the singer’s high-profile divorce. Ever since then, they’ve been spotted out and about everywhere. When a fan held up a “Will You Marry Me?” sign, Adele said she couldn’t since she was already getting married and showed off her pear-shaped diamond ring. The ring was first spotted in 2022 at the Brit Awards. National Jeweler spoke to jeweler Stephanie Gottlieb, who explained that the ring was most likely worth $500,000.
