Well, we cover him when he gets in trouble. We cover him when he corrects a Spanish TV audience for clapping incorrectly. And we cover him when he rides shotgun in a Lyft. So we might as well go all in and cover Justin Bieber when he announces a “world tour.”
Two days before the release of his new album Purpose, which people seem to be pretty into, we have to admit, the Biebs today announced a fairly massive 58-date North American tour that kicks off March 9 in Seattle and wraps July 18 at Madison Square Garden in New York.
The local date? A May 10 romp at the TD Garden in Boston.
As Entertainment Weekly notes, tickets go on sale Friday, November 20, but pre-sale begins today via EllenTV.com. The password is “ellenjob” — click it for ticket.
Here’s his announcement for the tour, which is being billed as a “world tour” even though only North American dates are being hyped at the moment…
