Why Selena Gomez cancelled her tour

The latest Hollywood updates.

Pop star Selena Gomez has decided to cancel the remaining dates of her Revival tour as she plans to take a break.

The announcement comes after the 24-year-old singer-actress got into an online spat with her ex Justin Bieber, but she cited depression stemming from Lupus as the reason of her hiatus, reported People magazine.

'As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways. I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges,' Gomez said in a statement.

'I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off. Thank you to all my fans for your support. You know how special you are to me, but I need to face this head on to ensure I am doing everything possible to be my best. I know I am not alone by sharing this, I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues.'

The talented singer-actress was diagnosed with lupus in 2014.

Chris Brown arrested for assault with a deadly weapon

Singer Chris Brown has been arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.

The Loyal hitmaker was taken to custody after an all-day police standoff at his Tarzana, California home on August 30, reported Radar online.

Police arrived in the early hours of Tuesday after obtaining a search warrant from a report filed by a former pageant queen named Baylee Curran, who alleged Brown pointed a gun at her during a party at the estate.

'We are currently conducting an investigation at the residence of Mr Chris Brown,' LAPD spokesperson Chris Ramirez had said prior to the arrest.

'Detectives are currently serving the search warrant and trying to get the occupants and Mr Chris Brown to cooperate with our investigation to find out if there's any type of relation to what occurred this morning.'

Earlier in the day, Brown launched an Instagram rant to defend his innocence.

The singer denied any wrongdoings, saying he woke up after sleeping the whole night to find police surrounding his house.

'So I'm asleep half the night. I just wake up and all these helicopter choppers are around, the police are at the gate. C'mon, what else do y'all want from me? I stay out of the way, take care of my daughter, do work...

'At the same time, when I call the police for stalker people that are endangering my life, they don't come until the next day. When somebody makes up allegation about me and, oh yeah, the whole swat team... I'm innocent. I'm tired of hearing this,' he added.
