British singer, Adele Laurie Blue Adkins, better known as Adele has announced that she will take a break from music after her Las Vegas residency to pursue a degree in English Literature.
The songwriter, who released the music video for her new song, ‘I Drink Wine’ on Wednesday, October 26, expressed regret that she did not attend university after graduating from high school.
Adele stated in a fan Q&A in Los Angeles seen by The Sun, that she will complete an online course to obtain the degree.
She stated, “After Vegas, I really want to get a degree in English Literature. If I hadn’t made it in my singing, I think I would definitely be a teacher. I think I’d be an English Lit teacher.
“‘I definitely feel like I use my passion for English Lit in what I do. But even though it’s not like I’d go on to get a job from my degree, I wish I had gone to university, I wish I’d had that experience.
“I won’t go to a university, I’ll do it online and with a tutor, but that’s my plan for 2025. It’s just to get the qualifications.”
Adele’s Las Vegas residency will begin in November, after a last-minute cancellation in January.
