It's official! This piece of news is bound to send Beliebers into a tizzy -Justin Bieber will have his first full-fledged concert in the city on May 10. The 22-year-old Canadian pop sensation will perform for the first time in India at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The visit will be a part of his Purpose tour (his fourth studio album) in Asia. Apart from India, he will also perform in Tel Aviv and Dubai.

Other than performing, the singer is also likely to indulge in some Mumbai darshan. A source closely associated with Bieber's maiden India tour revealed, “Bieber loves Indian food and has it every time he's in the UK. So, the organisers will chalk out a special desi menu comprising his favourite Indian dishes -chicken tikka and tandoori. He'll also be given a tour of the Gandhi museum in Mumbai and gifted a specially compiled coffee table book that will have some of the Bollywood A-listers expressing their love for him.“

Arjun Jain, the man behind the tour, confirmed the news, adding, “Justin has been wanting to come to India for a long time.

He will be travelling to Mumbai from Dubai and is expected to be here for at least two days. All those rumours about the tour being cancelled owing to his `hefty fees' are not true. India is yet to witness a stadium tour of this stature. We chose DY Patil as the venue as it gives a better view of the artiste.

Security arrangements are in place, too.

Justin will stage an extraordinary show pro pelled by state-of-the-art production; it will be of a magnitude that the country has not wit nessed in a long time.“

For those curious, tickets will go on sale online from February 22. The audience can expect Justin to perform for at least one hour and forty five minutes to his smash hits like Where Are Ü Now, Boyfriend, Love Yourself, Company , As Long As You Love Me, What Do You Mean?, Baby , Purpose and Encore: Sorry , to name a few.

Interestingly , Bollywood celebs will be roped in and are most likely to open the concert before Justin's solo performance. Our source performance.

While accepting the award for Best Album, Adele said it belonged to Beyonce for her album 'Lemonade'.

After the 2017 Grammy Award ceremony ended on February 13, photos of Adele holding two broken pieces of her award went viral. Soon articles started doing the rounds, claiming the singer had split her final award in two, the one she won for Best Album, to share it with Beyonce.

But did she, really?

Adele, emerged as a big winner at the 59th annual Grammys taking home major prizes. However, when she won Best Album, she declared that it truly belongs to Beyonce.

While accepting the honour, the 28-year-old star paid tribute to Beyonce, whose album 'Lemonade' was also nominated in the same category, saying the latter was a more deserving winner than her. "I can't possibly accept this award. The 'Lemonade' album was just so monumental, Beyonce. It was so monumental and well thought-out and beautiful and soul-baring... We appreciate that. All of us artists here adore you. You are our light," Adele said.

While photos show Adele holding a broken Grammy on stage, extending one half to Beyonce, a backstage video shows her exchanging it to get a new one.

The '25' songstress, who also won Grammys for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, said backstage that when she heard her name called instead of Queen Bey "a piece of me died inside", reported People magazine. "I felt like it was her time to win. What the f** does she have to do to win Album of the Year?"

Beyonce, 35, who was the front-runner in the race with nine nods for 'Lemonade', could only win in the two categories, including Best Urban Contemporary Album and Best Music Video.
