'Super daunting': Justin Bieber makes shock admission about the future of his tours during live stream

If you're a fan of Justin Bieber and hoping to catch him on his next album tour; you may be waiting a while.

The pop star got candid about the reality and pressures of touring during a recent Twitch stream last Friday, and what he shared may leave fans of his latest album disappointed.

Bieber, 31, revealed that at this stage in his career, the thought of touring again just feels "daunting".

"I think just because I've been touring for so long, just even the idea of touring at this point in my life sounds super daunting," Bieber said on the stream.

"I always start out really loving it, and then it always gets to a point where I'm just super burned out."

The father-of-one, who welcomed son Jack Blues in August last year with wife Hailey Bieber, adds that he's looking to be more selective of the commitments he makes in future.

"I think at this point in my life, I really want to do spot dates, where I just pick maybe a city and do a couple shows, and not commit to a whole two-year run; That's usually what it is, is like, for a year and a half, two years," he explained.

The news that he's not planning huge tours will no doubt come as a blow for fans of his latest releases SWAG and SWAG II, which include the viral hits YUKON and DAISIES.

But while he's not planning on huge tours, fans can at least enjoy the fact that he will be headlining at Coachella Music Festival in April next year.

"Right now, I'm just focusing on Coachella," he added during the stream.

"I got one show next year, in April, which is a long time away, and I'm just gonna focus on that for now and give my all to it. And so that doesn't feel super overwhelming."

The singer has been vocal about burnout and his struggles with mental health in the past.

He took to Instagram back in June to discuss the pressure he faces to "heal" and "fix" himself.

"People keep telling me to heal. Don't you think if I could have fixed myself I would have already?" he wrote.

"I tried to do the work my whole life to be like the people who told me I needed to be fixed like them. And it just keeps making me more tired and more angry. The harder I try to grow, the more focused on myself I am."

Bieber is currently focussed on documenting himself and his team in the leadup to Coachella, using Twitch to give fans a behind-the-scenes look into his preparation for the titular festival.And he'll be in good company in the Coachella Valley; he's set to be joined by the likes of Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G, who are headlining the festival alongside him.

The Baby hitmaker is reportedly "excited and working hard" in the leadup to Coachella, which will be his first performance since a surprise appearance at SZA's concert in May.

Despite things not looking so great for a SWAG album tour in the near future, there's hope, because he hasn't entirely ruled out the idea of touring altogether.

He says he believes he'll find a way to tour that works for him in future.
