The Justin Bieber concert scheduled for this Saturday at Mohegan Sun Arena has been postponed as the singer recovers from an ongoing medical issue.
All of Bieber's performances scheduled for June and early July have been postponed, including his Connecticut appearance this weekend.
On June 10, the Grammy winner appeared in an Instagram video where he explained why he decided to cancel several upcoming shows. Bieber said he has been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunts syndrome.
"It is from this virus that attacks the nerve in my ear and my facial nerves and has caused my face to have paralysis," he previously said. "As you can see, this eye is not blinking. I can't smile on this side of my face. This nostril will not move."
