Justin Bieber's India tour gets cancelled due to singer's health issues

Singer Justin Bieber, who was supposed to perform in India in October 2022, has called off his concert due to his health issues.

BookMyShow, on Thursday, confirmed the update by issuing an official statement.


"We are extremely disappointed to share that the 'Justin Bieber Justice World Tour - India' scheduled for October 18th, 2022 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, New Delhi has been cancelled owing to the singer's health condition. We have just been informed that due to health concerns, he will unfortunately not be able to make it next month. Along with New Delhi in India, the artist has also cancelled other stops in the tour's run-up to the India show including Chile, Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, Bahrain, UAE and Israel," BookMyShow's spokesperson said.

The gig would have marked Bieber's second visit to India. In 2017, Bieber performed in Mumbai as part of his Purpose World Tour. This time he was set to perform live at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi on October 18.

BookMyShow which sold tickets for the concert, also informed that the company would refund the ticket amount to people.

"BookMyShow has already initiated a full and complete refund of the ticket amount for all consumers who had purchased tickets for the show. The complete refund will be reflected within 10 working days in the customer's source account of the original transaction. We deeply regret the inconvenience caused but we promise, there is a lot more music and live entertainment coming your way, soon," the statement read.

Speaking of Bieber's health, he was diagnosed with the Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, which caused partial paralysis to his face, earlier this year. Following this, he had taken a break for performing on stage.

The 78th Cannes Film Festival, which began on 13 May and runs until 24 May, has introduced new guidelines for red carpet attire, prohibiting "full nudity" and "excessively voluminous" outfits.

The updated dress code, now officially part of the festival’s charter, aims to maintain a respectful atmosphere while adhering to French law and the event's established framework. The organisers explained that the intention is not to regulate fashion choices directly, but to prohibit full nudity on the red carpet in line with French law. They stated, “The aim is not to regulate attire per se, but to prohibit full nudity on the red carpet, in accordance with the institutional framework of the event and French law.”
