Bieber asked all his fans to hold on to their tickets as the dates of the tour will soon be rescheduled.

According to the World Health Organisation, COVID-19 has affected over 8,27,419 people globally and has spread to almost 206 countries.

On a related note, the pop sensation has become the youngest musician of all time to score seven Number 1 albums on the Billboard Hot 200 list.

According to USA Today, Beiber broke the long-standing record of the pop legend Elvis Presley by earning this honour at a young age of 25, thanks to his latest album Changes.

This is one year less than Presley who achieved this feat with his 1961 album Blue Hawaii at the age of 26.
