Justin Bieber Denies Religion Drove Him to Cancel Purpose Tour
Justin Bieber is publicly denying religion played a role in him abruptly pulling the plug on his Purpose tour with just 14 shows to go. Biebs was grabbing lunch Tuesday in Bev Hills when a pap asked about the sudden decision to quit. Justin…
Justin Bieber Cancels Tour Because of Religious Beliefs, Screws Over Crew Members
If you’re a true Belieber, then by now, you’ve no doubt heard the disheartening news.
Justin Bieber has canceled the remaining dates on his “Purpose” tour, leaving tens of thousands of fans gravely disappointed.
Reps for the Biebs claim he was simply too tired to carry on, and that excuse shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.
Bieber has cited exhaustion for canceling numerous events in the past, usually letting a whole lot of fans down in the process.
Many on social media have been quite vocal in their curiosity over just what the hell is making a seemingly healthy 23-year-old so damn tired all the time.
But now, it looks as though JB called off the tour not for reasons having to do with his body … but rather due to a crisis of the soul, girl.
Yes, TMZ is reporting that Justin has found Jesus, and Jesus … doesn’t like arena shows?
We’re not really sure, but sources close to Justin say his involvement with the Hillsong Church led the singer to decision that he should cancel the remaining 14 stops on his tour.
It’s important to note that those same sources insist Hillsong leader Carl Lentz did not encourage Justin to cancel the dates.
Unfortunately, it seems Bieber is getting his signals crossed, as canceling the tour is probably no what J.C. would’ve done.
You see, it’s not just the fans Bieber is letting down, but his dozens of crew members who now find themselves unexpectedly out of a job.
TMZ says the crew is “incredibly pissed off at him,” as many were living paycheck-to-paycheck and now have to worry about their immediate financial futures.
According to the site, anonymous crew members are scoffing at the idea that this is part of some spiritual awakening for Justin.
Instead, that say it’s just more of the bratty behavior that he’s been known for for years.
Bieber has yet to speak out on the matter directly.
He’s probably too tired.
Or he’s in church.
Whatever his excuse for being lame is these days, that’s what’s going on.
Justin Bieber"s Crew Pissed, Say He Didn"t Care About Tour and Left Them High and Dry
It is too late for Justin Bieber to say he’s sorry to members of his tour crew … who feel he totally let them down without the slightest hint of a warning … according to sources close to the Purpose tour team. We’re told Biebs’ crew…

Twitter Offers #PrayersForBieber in Wake of Tour Cancelation
Justin Bieber has canceled the remainder of his world tour.
Sources close to the singer say he"s just "super exhausted" and simply unable to continue to perform for his very loyal fans.
In response to this stunning turn of events, Twitter is wondering whether Bieber is okay and whether he"ll survive without some help from Above.
That"s right, the hashtag "#PrayersForBieber" is now trending, with users torn on whether it"s sarcastic or deadly serious. See what we mean below…
1. We Need a Miracle, Folks
This is NOT a laughing matter. Take it seriously, everyone.
2. Eff You, TMZ
Focus a little more on having some heart instead of having a big bank account, you selfish website!
3. You Deserve It, Biebs
You’ve acted in such a selfless, non-spoiled manner for so long.
4. Third Graders Can Barely Function Right Now
We really wish we were joking.
5. Not Bronchitis!!!!!
Please, God. Please help him.
6. Parents Are Getting Involved
We need EVERYone to team up on this one, folks.

Justin Bieber Cancels World Tour Because He"s Very Tired
Justin Bieber has canceled the remainder of his “Purpose” world tour because he’s a self-centered, whiny little brat.
Or, to use the words of someone close to the spoiled singer, Bieber canceled the remainder of his world tour because he’s really tired these days.
Having performed 154 times so far on the tour, and with just 14 dates remaining, Bieber released the following statement through his reps late on Monday:
“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 six 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.”
This announcement comes on the heels of China saying Bieber has been banned from entertaining fans in that country due to an influx of bad behavior.
The first show that will be affected by this decision was scheduled for Saturday in Dallas.
Bieber was also slated to play the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles this summer, along with concerts in New York, Minneapolis, Boston and Toronto prior to heading to Asia for a handful of shows in Japan, the Philippines and Singapore.
Through the first half of 2017, Bieber’s tour grossed $ 93.2 million; with average per date ticket sales of $ 38,297, according to concert industry trade Pollstar.
“He’s been going to church and has been hanging out with his church crew. He’s super exhausted, though,” an insider tells People Magazine of Justin, adding:
“He actually does like being on tour, but he’s been touring for 18 months straight and it takes a toll.”
Oh, you’re super exhausted, Biebs? We’re so sorry to hear that.
You know who else is probably super exhausted? The fans who pulled double shifts and worked extra hard to afford a ticket to go watch you sing live.
What an insensitive A-Hole.
Bieber has been acting like a jerk to his fans for years.
He often yells at them in concert when they cheer for him too loudly and his actions do not reflect someone who actually appreciates the people that have propelled his career to where it is now.
A source, for example, has told TMZ that Bieber is “just over” the tour at this point.
And when a reporter caught up with the artist on the beach in Santa Monica, California yesterday afternoon. Bieber responded to questions by saying:
“Everything’s fine … I’ve been on tour for two years, [I’m going to spend time] resting, relaxation gonna ride some bikes.”
Does he have a message for his fans?
“I love you guys, you’re awesome, I’m sorry for anyone who feels disappointed or betrayed.”
In light of this news and the criticism that has come along with it, John Mayer has stuck up for Bieber.
“When someone pulls remaining dates of a tour, it means they would have done real damage to themselves if they kept going,” Mayer Tweeted lat night, adding:
“We’ve lost so many great artists lately. I give Justin for realizing it was time to call it. You should too.”

Jeremy Roloff Takes Fans on Tour of New Home
Jeremy Roloff provides an update on one new thing in the video below, and one soon-to-be-new thing.
That is, the reality star"s recently-purchased house… and the baby that is growing bigger and bigger everyday inside wife Audrey"s belly.
In a newly-released video for TLC, the expecting father takes fans on a tour of the home he and Audrey bought this spring in Oregon, as the couple looks to live closer to their family"s famous farm for the foreseeable future.
“We are officially homeowners!!!! What a day, week, and month it"s been,” the Audrey wrote on Instagram in May, adding at the time:
"C-R-A-Z-Y. But today was move-in day, and we are thankful and excited for new beginnings… in more ways that one."
Well, it wasn"t literally move-in day, however. As Jeremy makes clear in the following footage.
The Little People, Big World couple is basically tearing the new home up, getting many renovations done and really hoping they"re finished in time for the arrival of their first child.
She"s due to enter the world in September.
And just how is the mother-to-be handling her pregnancy?
Very well, Jeremy assures fans in this video.
He says Audrey has been blessed with a relatively easy pregnancy, all things considered, and that the couple simply can"t wait to meet their bundle of joy.
There"s just one thing: he has to rub his wife"s right shoulder on a nightly basis.
For what reason?
Watch and find out!

Adele Cancels Remainder of Tour: Is She Done Performing Forever?!
Adele is, if we’re being honest, a beautiful gift that we’ve never deserved.
But still, even though we know we don’t deserve her and all her glory, that doesn’t mean we’re ready for her to leave us anytime soon.
Unfortunately, it seems like we don’t have much of a choice, and thanks to a few new updates from the woman herself, we’re starting to prepare ourselves for the worst.
For our first piece of evidence, we have a note that Adele wrote and included in her tour program for her series of concerts at Wembley Stadium.
For the big finale of her current tour, she’s doing four shows at Wembley — or she was. More on that in a moment.
In the note, she wrote that “Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn’t suit me particularly well.”
“I’m a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things. Plus I’m dramatic and have a terrible history of touring. Until now that is!”
She wrote that she’d done 119 shows in the tour, plus the four at Wembley, and “I only ever did this tour for you and to hopefully have an impact on you the way that some of my favorite artists have had on me live.”
“And I wanted my final shows to be in London because I don’t know if I’ll ever tour again and so I want my last time to be at home.”
And there it is. Cuts like a knife, doesn’t it?
So according to that note, the fans that managed to get tickets to the finale of her tour are super, super lucky.
Or they were if they caught the first two shows.
Yesterday, after playing her second show, she made a heartfelt announcement on Twitter that she’d be canceling the remaining two shows.
Meaning that the tour is over, and there’s a good chance that we’ll never get another chance to see her tour again.
In the post she wrote on Twitter, Adele explained that “The last two nights at Wembley have been the biggest and best shows of my life.”
She said she never thought she could pull off a show that big — classic Adele adorableness.
“However,” she continued, “I’ve struggled vocally both nights. I had to push a lot harder than I normally do.”
She said that, after going to see her doctor, she learned that her vocal cords have been damaged, and “on medical advice I am unable to perform over the weekend.”
It’s not the first time she’s experienced trouble from her vocal cords — after experiencing some similar issues, she had to take a good deal of time off for surgery to repair the problem in 2011.
This time around, she told her fans that “To say I’m heartbroken would be a complete understatement.”
She’s been trying steroids and other various treatments, and she said that she’s considered pushing on with the show anyway, but if she did, she likely couldn’t even finish the set.
“I’m so desperate to do them that I’ve even considered miming, just to be in front of you and be with you,” she added.
That would be a whole new kind of precious, but she’s decided against that route.
“I’m sorry,” she wrote to her fans. “I’m sorry for your disappointment. I’m sorry for the nights you would have had with your loved ones and the memories you would have made together.”
“I’m sorry for the time and money you’ve spent organizing your trips. You know I would not make this decision lightly.”
Poor, sweet Adele also said that she’s really struggling with coming to terms that she won’t get to do those last two shows, but that she’ll figure out a way to make it right.
For the time being, she said that returns will be offered if the shows can’t be rescheduled, and she’ll have more information soon.
“I’m devastated,” she wrote at the end of her note. “I’m sorry. I love you I’m so sorry, please forgive me.”
How is this woman so perfect? And how can we go on if she never performs again?

Kanye West: Doing Better, Going on Tour Soon?!
So just in case you missed it, Kanye West hasn’t been having the best time lately.
He’s actually been having a truly terrible time for months and months and months.
It all started … well, it’s hard to actually pinpoint an exact moment when things started taking a turn for the worse, since he’s been wacky for years.
But after his wife, Kim Kardashian, was robbed at gunpoint in Paris, he seemed to begin on a downward spiral.
He was in the middle of a concert when he heard the news, and he immediately left the show to tend to the situation, which was sweet.
But when he started his tour up again, he began going on bizarre, troubling rants.
He slammed Jay Z, claiming that his once close friend hadn’t called him to check on his family after the robbery, and a few weeks later he slammed Beyonce, too.
He started showing support for Donald Trump, which didn’t seem quite like him.
Then, in late November, Kanye had a mental breakdown.
He was hospitalized for over a week, and when he went home, rumors began circulating that he and Kim were on the brink of a divorce.
Those rumors continue to this day — even though they’re reportedly expecting a new baby or two through a surrogate.
A few months ago, he deleted his social media accounts, and he even allegedly left Kim for a time.
These days, he’s back with her, but he’s still more silent than he’s ever been. We haven’t heard a peep directly from Kanye in a long, long time.
But thankfully, according to a new report from TMZ, that doesn’t necessarily mean things aren’t going well for him.
In fact, things are looking up in a big way.
Sources say that Kanye is back and better than ever, that he’s “focused, engaged, and has overcome the issues that landed him in the hospital last year.”
Things are going so well that he’s even looking to go back on tour as early as the beginning of next year!
It’s great news, considering that he canceled his Saint Pablo tour in November after repeatedly showing up hours late and failing to really perform his songs.
To be fair, he canceled it literally the day before his breakdown, so it was probably for the best.
The report says that for the new tour, Kanye will update the set list, and he’ll improve on the already impressive set that accompanied the Saint Pablo tour.
Finally, TMZ’s sources claim that while he doesn’t have “a specific timeline,” there’s a good chance a new album will drop early next year, too.
Can’t wait to have you back, ‘Ye!
