Justin Bieber has gone and done it again by shocking his fandom with the news that he is officially done with the Purpose Tour. After traveling the world for the past 18 months, Justin performed 154 shows. He had 15 shows left to go before he put a stop to the whole thing. The rest of the dates included stops across Asia and North America. It's a super sad day for Beliebers especially because there's not a clear answer why this happened.
Justin was just seen out and about hiking with a new lady friend, Audreyana Michelle, in Los Angeles and he looked fit and well. An insider told Variety, "It wasn’t a decision made overnight. He’s had some time off and was able to consider his commitments." Justin himself has yet to comment on the whole situation but another source told TMZ that the "Sorry" singer was "just over it." Oh gahd.
A rep for Justin said, "Due to unforeseen circumstances, Justin Bieber will cancel the remainder of the Purpose World Tour concerts. Justin loves his fans and hates to disappoint them. He thanks his fans for the incredible experience of the Purpose World Tour over last 18 months. He is grateful and honored to have shared that experience with his cast and crew for over 150 successful shows across 6 continents during this run. However, after careful consideration, he has decided he will not be performing any further dates. Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase."
So there you have it. He's done. He's over it. The Purpose Tour has officially ended. It was a good run as it reportedly grossed $93.2 million. Variety is reporting that Bieber could face a penalty for cancelling without a medical reason or a reason that could put the artist in danger. There's no word on what that penalty could be. As of right now, we hope that Justin is okay and was just completely exhausted.
If he finished out the tour, the Biebs would have been on the road for close to 2 years. That's a long freaking time.
