Supportive: When the news of the tour’s cancellation broke, many fans took to Twitter to offer their words of support and ensure that health comes first.
And despite travel and ticketing agencies confirming the news, the hitmaker has yet to comment on the news.
The cancellation is believed to be due to Justin’s health issues, after he postponed shows in late 2022 due to illness.
MailOnline has contacted Justin’s representatives to discuss the reason for the cancellation.
He has been suffering with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, and shared a three-minute video on social media last summer explaining his diagnosis, which is a complication of shingles that can lead to facial paralysis.
According to the mayo clinicThe hearing loss and facial paralysis associated with Ramsay Hunt syndrome is temporary, however it can become permanent.
Justin’s right eye was unable to blink and the right side of his face didn’t move as he started the video saying, ‘Hello everyone Justin here, wanted to update you on what’s been going on.
‘Obviously, as you can probably tell from my face. I have this syndrome called Ramsay Hunt syndrome and it’s because of this virus that attacks the nerves in my ear and my facial nerves and has caused my face to be paralyzed.’
Justin later posted a sad update on his Instagram Story when he wrote: “It has gotten progressively harder to eat which has been extremely frustrating, please pray for me.” [tearing up emoji]’.

‘I’m very proud of him for putting his health first. He is an amazing artist,’ wrote one.

‘I just saw that Justin Bieber canceled the rest of his tour dates. I honestly wish him nothing more than the healing he’s been through so much and while I’ll probably never see him live, I’d rather he do his best,” added a third.
But many were heartbroken by the cancellation, as they were furious that Justin himself has yet to speak out.
Justin canceled his entire Justice World Tour in September of last year due to physical and mental health concerns, just weeks after resuming it while recovering from facial paralysis.
