Justin Bieber cancels Thanksgiving Day performance at the last minute

Following a spellbinding performance at the American Music Awards on Sunday, Justin Bieber has cancelled his New York City Thanksgiving Day Parade headlining gig without any explanation. He also nixed his Tuesday appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

The singer took to Twitter late Monday night to announce he was pulling out of the CBS late-night show, on which he was scheduled to promote his new album “Purpose.”

He then tweeted directly at Colbert:

Bieber cancelled his performance in the parade after cancelling on Colbert, reports Entertainment Tonight. The parade performance was supposed to tape on Tuesday in New York after his appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
