THE message to his almost 48 million Twitter followers was typical in its brevity.
“My beloved beliebers I’m officially retiring.”
Posted at 2.20pm (AEST), the message was certainly a strange Christmas present to fans, although not entirely unexpected: he had floated the idea of his retirement last week.
On December 19, the Canadian pop star told a Los Angeles radio station he’s planning to take a break from music after his new album Journals was released.
“After the new album, I’m actually retiring man,” he said. “I’m retiring.”
In follow-up tweets today, the Baby, Baby singer told his fans that the media “make up a lot of lies and want me to fail but I’m never leaving you, being a belieber is a lifestyle.”
A couple of minutes after that he tweeted again, advising his 47,932,323 followers – his following is second only to Katy Perry’s – that he was “HERE FOREVER”.
“Be kind loving to each other, forgive each other as god forgave us through Christ Merry Christmas.”
