Justin Bieber’s all new album, “Purpose,” gets released on Friday. Bieber has announced an expansive tour behind his upcoming album. Spanning major markets across the U.S. and Canada, the singer’s 58-date North American trek kicks off March 9th, 2016 in Seattle and concludes July 18th at New York’s iconic Madison Square Garden.
After storming the music industry in 2008 with some hit YouTube videos, Bieber went from teen phenom to alleged delinquent. The claims against him included a DUI in Miami Beach and the vandalism of a neighbour’s house with eggs (he agreed to a plea deal the DUI case and reportedly paid restitution for the egg-throwing incident).
Appearing on “Ellen” to announce the news, Mr. Bieber was asked by the host when the arena shows would begin. “Oh, gosh,” he said. “This is the only thing I had to remember. Do you know? You can go to my website to find out.”
