Justin was in the middle of his Justice World Tour when he received his Ramsay Hunt diagnosis. He was forced to cancel several US tour dates throughout June and early July. Explaining the situation on Instagram, Justin revealed: “It is this virus that is attacking my auricular nerve, my facial nerves and has caused my face to become paralysed. As you can see, this eye doesn’t blink. I can’t smile on this side of my face. This nostril will not move. There is total paralysis on this side of my face.

Before being forced to “slow down” and rest his body, Justin toured the US throughout March, April and May of 2022. He then returned to the stage in late July for a series of shows in Europe, followed by a show on September 4 in Brazil. After that show, Justin announced that he would be postponing upcoming tour dates to focus on his mental health.

“After leaving the stage [in Brazil], fatigue took over me and I realized that right now I have to prioritize my health,” explained Justin. “So I’m taking a break from touring for now. I’ll be fine, but I need some time to rest and improve.”

In early October 2022, it was announced that Justin’s entire tour would be postponed. The tour was set for March 2023 and the announcement explained that ALL dates would be pushed “to next year”, with more information to come at a later date. However, in late February, it was confirmed that the tour had officially been canceled for good.
