It appears to have all got too much for Justin Bieber. Taking some time out from his no doubt frantic schedule, the 22-year-old Canadian singer has been spotted wandering around Boston with no shoes.

As with most things Bieber does, the barefoot expedition has garnered a fair deal of attention, with local Bostonian’s shocked at his decision to leave his shoes at home.

“I love Justin Bieber's new aesthetic of 'walking barefoot and feeding squirrels after getting a face tattoo',” wrote one Twitter user.

While another said, “If we're being real Justin Bieber is going to need a tetanus shot after walking around the commons barefoot”.

On his casual stroll around town, Bieber was also pictured sitting on a park bench listening to music looking pensively into the distance.

This follows Bieber’s impassioned display of emotion at his Purpose tour on Saturday night and reports the singer was fighting back tears. Bieber sat down on stage surrounded by his adoring crowds of “Beliebers” – devoted fans who devoutly worship the singer – with his eyes closed while he performed.

A representative for Bieber did not immediately respond to request for comment.
