GLOBAL superstar and multi-award winning singer Justin Bieber has added South Africa to his Purpose World Tour and is expected to return in May next year for only two shows.
The 22-year-old is set to perform two shows in Johannesburg’s FNB Stadium on Sunday (May 14) before taking to Cape Town’s Satdium on Wednesday (May 17).

This will not be a first South African visit for the Sorry singer after he first sneaked into SA on a private visit in 2010. He was said to have gone on a game drive before jetting to Cape Town and also reportedly bumped into local Afrikaans singer Kurt Darren back then.

Bieber then returned in 2013 for his sold out concerts which saw teens across the country bunking school just for a chance to see Bieber. Schools at the time didn’t support this move but parents were adamant they would give their children a time of their lives watching the Baby singer performing live.

In a statement from Big Concerts, parents were warned that: “All fans attending the concerts that are younger than 14 years must be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian. There is also an age restriction on field standing tickets (Front Zone Standing East/West and General Admission East/West) – no one under 12 years and shorter than 1.2 metres will be permitted onto the field”.

He’s made worldwide sales in excess of 100 million units dominating pop culture and social media.  With 3.1 million sales worldwide for his latest album Purpose, Justin Bieber’s current global tour has smashed box office records with hit singles including What Do you Mean, Sorry and Love Yourself which all peaked at number one on the Billboard Top 200 making Bieber the first male artist in almost a decade to have three number ones from an album.

 Tickets are expected to go on sale Thursday 15th December at 9am while Discovery cardholders get exclusive access to tickets from Tuesday 13th December. Tickets for the Joburg leg will charge between R410 and R1540 while Cape Town tickets will cost between R350 and R1260. - additional information from Big Concerts.

Joost tape is out for all to see...

THE Joost van der Westhuizen sex tape saga descended into a tabloid frenzy last month as Heat magazine screened a grainy video purporting to show the former Springbok captain in compromising positions.  The 29-minute tape, which was shown to journalists, showed a man who bore some resemblance to Van der Westhuizen frolicking with what heat magazine described as a “vindictive young lady” wearing two G-strings “in the stripper tradition”.  It claimed that the video proved conclusively that Van der Westhuizen had cheated on his wife, singer Amore Vittone. But the magazine did not identify the woman and provided little corroborating evidence in the accompanying story. Twelve print, radio and television journalists watched the man, whom Van der Westhuizen strongly denies is him, arousing himself, running his hands over the woman’s body, and using a sex toy. Now HEAT has place the video up on their site.  Click HERE to see all this drama.
