Hello Daydreamers… It's Me, Adele!!!

 

Relive Adele's highly anticipated return to the stage performing LIVE in Las Vegas! Her Las Vegas residency, “Weekends with Adele”, has been a triumphant success by selling out multiple shows and being one of the most sought-after tickets in Vegas history. This recreation of the Weekends with Adele Las Vegas stage depicts Adele performing Set Fire to the Rain showcasing her vocal prowess. This center stage perspective depicts the viewpoint at Adele’s residency as though she was performing just for that special “Daydreamer”. Adele's music is multigenerational and attracts fans from near and far. Her hometown appeal as a simple girl from Tottenham, England touches the hearts of fans and resonates so completely with her “Daydreamers” and music fans alike. Adele's songs and lyrics embody feelings that every human has experienced at one time or another while making memories and transcending music.

 

As a Lego builder, I wanted to challenge myself to accurately portray the different elements of Adele's residency in Las Vegas. The stage is done in her classic black look, the backdrop features her “A” with her magnificent wine glass chandelier while also paying attention to details such as the gold wheels of the piano and the tilt of it as it burns. It also presents the visually stunning spectacle of one of Adele’s most notable hits, “Set Fire to the Rain”, where the flames from the pyrotechnics illuminates the stage and The Colosseum as the piano is set ablaze.

 

Creating this build allowed me to display my memory of Weekends with Adele. It also facilitated my creativity and allowed me to share one of the greatest musical performances I have ever personally experienced.

 

This build includes 3 minifigure variations of Adele. However, a Lego builder and Adele fan would have the opportunity to design and build outfits from a weekend of their choice as well as other members of Adele's band and support staff. 

The minifigures presented here are:

This is my first attempt at a custom build and while it turned out to be quite challenging, I was so inspired by Adele’s live performances that it manifested into a passion project. Having been lucky enough to see Adele perform live on several occasions, I was overwhelmed by the impact of her show- the raw emotion that She expresses through Her signing which reaches deep into your soul. 

 

Being able to recreate “Weekend with Adele” into Lego was simply mind-blowing. This has been a rewarding creative experience. I am grateful to have a platform like Lego Ideas that allows me to share my creation with fellow Lego enthusiasts, Adele fans, “Daydreamers” from around the world, and anyone who has an appreciation for music and imagination. 

 

As a proud AFOL and super fan of Adele, I was inspired by her voice and performances. The drop of the piano chords, the cheers and applause of the crowd, the walk to center stage revealing the dress, the pause, then the exclamation of one of the most memorable phrases in music history… “Hello, it’s me”. I wanted a set commemorating my experience at the Weekends with Adele Las Vegas residency and here it is!

 

 

This Lego set would be a great addition to the proud tradition of recognizing musicians from various genres of music such as the Beatles, Elvis, and most recently BTS. Adele would also be celebrated like her idols the Spice Girls who she loves and credits with being influential on her career. It would be particularly special for any of Adele's fans, especially the Daydreamers, as it would mark another milestone for the singer to be immortalized in Lego, adding to her credentials of being an icon of pop and music culture. It would also serve as a memorable keepsake for anyone who attended Weekends with Adele or may have wanted to attend, but never got the chance to. Lego fans could also customize their Lego Adele minifigure to coincide with a specific week that they attended making the set truly one of a kind.
