In a short video on his Instagram page, Bieber explained more about a series of concerts he recently had to cancel “due to illness”. The Canadian says that he suffers from the so-called Ramsay Hunt syndrome. This is a rare infectious disease that, in addition to partial facial paralysis, also causes earaches, dizziness and skin rashes.
“It’s a virus that affects the nerves in my ear and face, leaving it paralyzed,” the singer explains in the video. He shows that he can only blink on one side and smile on one side of his mouth. “I am physically unable to perform. It is – as you can see – quite serious. My body tells me to take it slow.”
He promises his fans that everything will be fine. “I don’t know how long it will take, but everything will be fine,” he says.
