Justin Bieber remains 'upbeat' despite postponing remaining US Justice tour dates


  • English
  • Arabic

Justin Bieber has postponed his remaining US Justice World Tour dates amid his ongoing recovery from Ramsay Hunt syndrome.

A post from the tour's official Instagram account said the singer was "upbeat" and receiving "the best medical care possible", while looking forward to returning to performing later this summer.

Scroll through the gallery above to see Justin Bieber's style evolution

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is caused by viral reactivation and is one of 60 causes of facial palsy, or facial paralysis as it is known in the US.

It is a complication of shingles that occurs when an outbreak affects the facial nerve near one ear. It can cause hearing loss in addition to facial paralysis.

News of the postponement comes after his wife, Hailey Bieber, told US news show Good Morning America he was "getting better every single day".

"In light of Justin's ongoing recovery, the remaining US Justice tour shows scheduled for June and early July will be postponed," the post read.

"Justin continues to receive the best medical care possible, is upbeat about his recovery, and is looking forward to getting back out on the road and performing for his fans overseas later this summer."

It added that details on the rescheduled US dates would be announced shortly.

Bieber told fans in a video posted to Instagram earlier this month about his diagnosis.

“As you can see, this eye is not blinking. I can't smile on this side of my face, this nostril will not move,” Bieber explained.

“So, there's full paralysis on this side of my face. So, for those who are frustrated by my cancellations of the next shows, I'm just physically, obviously, not capable of doing them. This is pretty serious, as you can see.”

The singer, 28, previously said that he had been doing facial exercises to regain movement, but it would still take time to recover.

The Africa Institute 101

Housed on the same site as the original Africa Hall, which first hosted an Arab-African Symposium in 1976, the newly renovated building will be home to a think tank and postgraduate studies hub (it will offer master’s and PhD programmes). The centre will focus on both the historical and contemporary links between Africa and the Gulf, and will serve as a meeting place for conferences, symposia, lectures, film screenings, plays, musical performances and more. In fact, today it is hosting a symposium – 5-plus-1: Rethinking Abstraction that will look at the six decades of Frank Bowling’s career, as well as those of his contemporaries that invested social, cultural and personal meaning into abstraction.

Nepotism is the name of the game

Salman Khan’s father, Salim Khan, is one of Bollywood’s most legendary screenwriters. Through his partnership with co-writer Javed Akhtar, Salim is credited with having paved the path for the Indian film industry’s blockbuster format in the 1970s. Something his son now rules the roost of. More importantly, the Salim-Javed duo also created the persona of the “angry young man” for Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the 1970s, reflecting the angst of the average Indian. In choosing to be the ordinary man’s “hero” as opposed to a thespian in new Bollywood, Salman Khan remains tightly linked to his father’s oeuvre. Thanks dad.
