The REAL reason Justin Bieber turned down the Super Bowl: Insiders reveal why the 'homebody' REJECTED Usher's invite to play the halftime show in favor of watching Kansas City Chiefs victory with his wife Hailey Baldwin


The singer, 29, disappointed fans when he failed to show up during Usher's record-breaking performance last Sunday - despite widespread speculation that he might feature.

Comparing Justin to former One Direction singer Zayn, the insider continued: 'He likes to be in the shadows and occasionally put out music but a full-on world tour or big performances on an awards show or the Super Bowl just doesn't fit him right now. Justin went public with his temporary facial paralysis - a symptom of Ramsay Hunt syndrome - just days after being forced to cancel dates on his Justice World Tour back in June 2022. At the time, Usher signed him to his new joint venture, along with talent manager Scooter Braun, and the pair collaborated on Somebody to Love - the second single from Justin's first studio album, My World 2.0.
