Selena Gomez cancelled tour because of Justin Bieber

A source close to the star says Gomez will be relying heavily on her family and closest friends during this time, reported Showbizspy. "Dealing with her breakup from Justin has still been affecting her and she's been in a bit of a bad place recently. Her family stepped in and basically advised her to either go to therapy or stay with them so they could watch over her.

Her team agreed that family time would be best," an insider said. Gomez was slated to kick off a 13-concert tour leg on February 1 in Perth, Australia, but issued a statement on December 20 announcing she was cancelling it.

"My fans are so important to me and I would never want to disappoint them. But it has become clear to me and those close to me that after many years of putting my work first, I need to spend some time on myself in order to be the best person I can be. To my fans, I sincerely apologise and I hope you guys know how much each and every one of you mean to me," the statement said.u00a0
