Justin Bieber has admitted to intentionally delaying the start of his concerts so he and his team could finish playing ping pong. For many fans, the most exciting moment is when the lights go down and the show is about to begin. Some performers even turn this moment into part of the act, teasing audiences with false starts and intro videos. However, delays at concerts are not always planned; technical problems or unexpected breaks can cause them.
In Bieber's case, the concert delays sometimes happened because he was deeply engaged in intense ping pong matches. The Canadian star, who has recently started streaming on Twitch, has openly shared various personal insights during his live streams, including his passion for ping pong.
“A lot of late nights in the studio with a ping pong table. We had one, also, on tour. We’d literally push back the show to keep playing ping pong at times because we just got so into it.”
Bieber often walks around his streaming setup, showing the ping pong table after matches. He has become more transparent about his personal life and music through Twitch, despite feeling “vulnerable” due to negative feedback at times.
“I’ve felt vulnerable going live because of the hate I’ve received at times.”
Justin Bieber’s shared tendency to delay concerts for ping pong highlights his playful side and growing openness in streaming, even amid challenges with criticism.
