Justin Bieber stated on Friday that he has been diagnosed with a rare condition that has left part of his face paralyzed and that he will be canceling the rest of his world tour dates.
According to the Mayo Clinic, Bieber has Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which occurs when a shingles epidemic damages the facial nerve near one of your ears, resulting in paralysis. The virus that causes chickenpox and shingles also causes this condition.

He pointed to his face and stated, As you can see, this eye is not blinking. On this side of my face, I can't grin. This nostril is immovable.
This nostril is immovable. So this side of my face is completely paralyzed.
Bieber stated that he intends to rest and unwind during his time off from performing. He's been doing facial workouts to help him get his face back to normal, according to him.
"I need to get some rest so that I can get my face back to where it belongs," he explained. "I adore you guys, and I appreciate your patience with me. I'm going to improve."
