Justin Bieber has postponed his world tour for a second time amid his ongoing recovery from Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
The Canadian singer, 28, said his recent Justice World Tour shows in Europe had “taken a real toll on me” and he needs more time to “rest and get better.” It comes just over a month after Bieber announced his return to touring, having previously postponed several US dates.
Announcing the news on Instagram, Justin said he had given “everything I have” during a recent show in Brazil. He said: “After getting offstage the exhaustion overtook me and I realised I need to make my health the priority right now.

Justin suffers from Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS), which is caused by viral reactivation and is one of 60 causes of facial palsy, or facial paralysis as it is known in the US. He told fans he had been doing facial exercises to regain movement but it would still take time to recover.
His world tour is scheduled to come to the UK in February 2023, with 12 shows planned for cities including London, Manchester and Birmingham. It is not yet clear if these dates will be affected.
