Justin Bieber is the latest famous face to announce that he has tested positive for COVID-19. As a result of his positive diagnosis – which he reportedly received on Saturday, February 19th – the 27-year-old “Yummy” singer was unable to perform his “Justice World Tour” show at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, February 20th. However, the rescheduled date has already been confirmed, and it is currently scheduled to go ahead on Tuesday, June 28th if all goes to plan!
“Due to positive Covid results within the Justice Tour family, we will, unfortunately, have to postpone Sunday’s show in Las Vegas,” read an official statement. “Justin is, of course, hugely disappointed, but the health and safety of his crew and fans is always his number one priority.”
"The tour launch in San Diego was a massive success, and Justin is excited to bring this spectacular show to his Las Vegas fans as soon as possible," the statement continued, in reference to the opening show at the Pechanga Arena in San Diego on Friday, February 18th.
Bieber's "Justice World Tour" is his first tour since his "Purpose" tour way back in 2017. It was originally meant to kick off in May 2020, but had to be rescheduled due to the pandemic. "We’ve been working hard to create the best show we’ve ever done, and we can’t wait to share it with fans around the world. I’ll see you soon," the "Peaches" singer previously teased. We don’t know if the Canadian singer's wife, 25-year-old model Hailey Bieber, has also tested positive for the virus, but it's been reported that his symptoms are currently very mild. We wish him a speedy recovery!
