    Having been friends for years and sharing the same manager, the ‘Yummy’ singer and the ‘7 Rings’ hitmaker claim that their big surprise will unravel at 10 A.M. on Friday, May 1.
    May 1, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Fans of Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande are in for a sleepless night – the pop stars have teased a major announcement for Friday morning (May 01).
    Bieber, who shares a manager with the “Side to Side” singer, took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon to reveal that a “special announcement” would be coming “tomorrow at 10am pst.”
    Grande replied by making it clear to her followers that she would be a part of the big surprise, leading fans to believe the pair have recorded a track together or Justin and Ariana will be part of a big charity gig, like the one Grande staged in Manchester, England a month after fans died in a terrorist attack outside her concert in the city in May 2017.

    Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande tease a ‘special announcement.’
    Ariana and Justin have been friends for years and she joined him onstage in 2016 during his “Purpose World Tour”. Bieber then hit the headlines when he stepped up to be part of Grande’s Coachella festival set in 2019, claiming the appearance had given him the incentive to perform live again.

    Justin Bieber Excited to Release 'Really Special' New Music: 'Be Ready'

    WENN

    The Canadian star jumps on Instagram Live during which he teases about an upcoming ‘special’ new song and tour, though he’s going to wait until ‘this all calms down a little bit’ before releasing anything.
    Apr 23, 2020
    AceShowbiz – It seems that Justin Bieber is spending time during Coronavirus lockdown by working on new music. The Canadian star jumped on Instagram Live on Tuesday, April 21 during which he teased about an upcoming “special” new song.
    “We are working on something really special now. Be ready,” the 26-year-old “Despacito” hitmaker told his fans during the broadcast from his home in Canada. “Hopefully when this all calms down a little bit we will be able to release some new stuff. And go on tour eventually, so I’m excited for that.”
    Fans were supposed to be enjoying his “Changes Tour”, a 45-date stadium and arena tour which was initially set to start on May 14. That would mark his first live tour in nearly three years. However, the husband of Hailey Baldwin was forced to postpone the much-anticipated tour due to Coronavirus pandemic.
    “The health and safety of my fans, team, cast and crew is the most important thing for me. The world is a scary place but we will all figure this out together. We held on to these dates as long as we could and I cannot wait to see all of you in person as soon as I can. Be safe,” so he announced earlier this month.
    More than anyone else, Justin was reportedly disappointed by the delay. He “has mentally prepared himself for several weeks that it would be necessary to postpone the tour,” said a source of the “Yummy” singer. “It obviously didn’t come as a shock to him. Yet, he is — of course — very disappointed. He has been rehearsing and preparing for months.”
    “Justin wants to do a safe tour so everyone, including his fans, can feel comfortable being in a large crowd again,” the source added. “If this isn’t possible until next year, Justin will accept that.”

    Jenna Dewan Dances Passionately to Justin Bieber's 'Intentions' One Month After Giving Birth

    WENN

    Accepting Sara Foster’s TikTok dance challenge, the ‘Step Up’ actress flaunts a flat stomach as she shows off her skills just weeks after welcoming her first son with fiance Steve Kazee.
    Apr 21, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Jenna Dewan has just given birth to her second child but it did not stop her from showing off her incredible dancing skills. A little over a month after welcoming a baby boy with fiance Steve Kazee, the “Step Up” star danced passionately to Justin Bieber’s “Intentions” in a TikTok video.
    Accepting Sara Foster’s challenge, the 39-year-old shared the clip on Instagram with a caption that read, “Okay okay okay…I’m here @tiktok!” Wearing a pink loungewear while letting her medium-length brunette hair down, she offered glimpses at her post-pregnancy tummy as she jammed to the beat.
    Upon seeing how well Jenna executed the dance moves in the Monday, April 20 video, Sara could not help but praise the ex-wife of Channing Tatum. “I need to understand how a body can move like this. Especially a body that had a baby 4 weeks ago. I will delete myself doing this dance, burn all traces of it and never dance again,” she commented. “You are perfection.”

    Apparently, Sara wasn’t the only one left impressed by how well Jenna danced after giving birth. Actress Kate Hudson wrote, “Wait…what?! U had a baby five seconds ago! Amazing.” Odette Yustman, in the meantime, chimed in, “Ummmm….. you are a superhuman!!!!” Fellow actress Emmanuelle Chriqui simply exclaimed, “YES!!!! She is back!”
    This was not the first time the “Flirty Dancing” host showed off her dancing skills on social media. In late March, she let out a clip of her and Steve doing a Just Dance battle. Over a close-up photo of her looking disappointed, she admitted defeat by writing, “I can’t win Just Dance to save my life.”

    Starting her career in Hollywood as professional dancer, Jenna recently expressed her yearning to dance again. In an Instagram post that saw her dancing in black attire, she wrote, “Missing this today! Dance has always been my emotional release, where i connect the strongest, feel my most sensual, powerful and free. Might have to start tik tok after all.”
