It was revealed earlier this week that the 'Turning Tables' superstar planned to return to the stage with a special live show on the finale of the talent contest next month, but a representative for the singer has now outed the rumour as false. 

The spokeswoman insisted a performance is "not going to happen" and Adele recently told fans that she is "doing really well, on the mend, super happy, relaxed and very positive with it all" following her throat surgery.
