Months after postponing several dates on his Justice World Tour following a surprise medical diagnosis, called Ramsay Hunt syndrome, Justin Bieber has canceled all the remaining shows on the tour.
The “Peaches” singer, shared a post on his Instagram on Tuesday that he’s no longer continuing with the tour in order to prioritize his health. “Earlier this year, I went public about my battle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, where my face was partly paralyzed,” he wrote in a statement. “As the result of this illness, I was not able to complete the North America leg of the Justice Tour.”
“After resting and consulting with my doctors, family, and team, I went to Europe to continue with the tour but it took a real toll on me.” the singer continued. “This past weekend I performed at Rock in Rio and I gave everything I have to the people in Brazil. After getting off stage, the exhaustion overtook me, and realized that I need to make my health the priority right now.”
The statement continues to read, “so I’m going to take a break from touring for the time being. I’m going to be ok but I need to rest and get better. I’ve been so proud to bring this show and our message of justice to the world. Thank you for your prayers and support throughout all of this! I love you all passionately!”
