Justin Bieber has claimed he is retiring.
In an announcement that no doubt caused rivers of teenage girls' tears across the world, the 19-year-old star has revealed he is taking a step back from the music industry when his new album, Journals, is released next week, and it could be permanent.
The Heartbreaker hitmaker told radio station Power 106 in Los Angeles, California, on Tuesday: "After the new album, I'm actually retiring, man. I'm retiring."
