On Friday (Mar. 6), it was announced that Justin Bieber's arena tour in support of his new album, Changes, would be downsizing to smaller venues. Coronavirus was cited as a factor leading to these adjustments, as it has been impacting everything else in the world. The pandemic-approaching virus was reported to have had a negative effect on ticket sales for Bieber's tour in select markets. His upcoming performances in eight arenas in different cities across the United States are being moved to the cities' respective stadiums. The venues were bestowed with the responsibility of informing ticketholders of this news, as Biebs himself refrained from offering any comment on his personal social media accounts.
Joe Budden stumbled upon this announcement and, unsurprisingly, made zero effort to bite his tongue regarding his take on the situation. "This is a bold faced lie," Budden asserted upon seeing a headline that attributed the downsizing to Coronavirus. While the podcast host didn't elaborate on what exactly he believed the lie to be, we can speculate that he thinks Bieber is using Corona as a scapegoat to cover up already-poor ticket sales. Changes was widely panned by critics and after Bieber took several years off from his music career, there's a chance that the majority of his audience outgrew his brand of pop.
Azriel Clary Claims To Have Footage Of R. Kelly "Coercing" Her To Lie About Alleged Abuse
Azriel Clary pondered whether these videos of R. Kelly telling her exactly what to say about him would put an end to the hate she’s received.
After purporting to stand by his side amidst countless sexual abuse allegations for quite some time, Azriel Clary recently came out against R. Kelly and confessed to the abuse she faced at the hands of the scorned R&B singer. The “ex-girlfriend” of R. Kelly recently sat down for a tell-all interview, where she detailed the extent of his allegedly manipulative and disturbing tactics that have allowed him to gain the support of so many women, including her. Azriel also recently indicated that her cooperation with investigators against R. Kelly “depends on his fans” and how they treat her.

Now, Azriel has taken to Twitter once again to ask her followers a very loaded question about the case.
“What if I had a video of Robert coercing me on what to say, and exactly how to say it…” Azriel asked. “I wonder if the hate would stop then. #whatif .. ?.” A Twitter user replied to the tweet, writing, “Nah.. they will just say you edited it or set him up. Kellz supporters don’t gaf if there’s 1000 videos. They don’t run on facts. ?.” Azriel emphasized just how telling this footage is, replying, “Even if there’s 4 or 5 different ones? Even if he was talking in second person like me? Hmm. I doubt it. But it’s just a what if. ??♀️?.” Time will tell if Azriel ever decides to release these videos, but if she really does have them in her possession, they would likely serve as some pretty incriminating evidence.
