Along with a promotional image the mother-of-one also posted a picture of her head superimposed over the body of singer and pianist Liberace, sporting one of his signature flamboyant costumes.

Tickets for the shows will go on general sale on 7 December, and there will also be a presale for registered fans.

Ticketmaster have said they expect the demand for tickets to be “overwhelming” and have encouraged fans to sign up as a ‘Verified Fan’.

Their website states: “Due to the limited quantity of tickets available, if demand from Verified Fans exceeds supply there will not be a Public Onsale. Registering for Verified Fan is the best way to ensure you have a chance to purchase tickets.”

The Easy On Me hitmaker joins a long list of stars who have had residencies in the famous city, including Britney Spears, Sir Elton John and Christina Aguilera.

Earlier this month the star released her long-awaited fourth album, 30. The album chronicles Adele’s divorce from husband Simon Konecki, touching upon themes of motherhood and heartbreak.

To mark the release of her first album in six years she featured in two television specials with one filmed in the US at the Griffith Observatory in California and the second in the UK at the London Palladium.
