Justin Bieber will play in 2021 with a New Year’s Eve concert at the Beverly Hilton hotel, sources exclusively told Page Six. But some Beverly Hills residents said the show already had its ears ringing on Wednesday during a sound check.
The singer “Yummy” is making his first live appearance on stage since 2017 with the show “NYE Live” which will be broadcast digitally at 10:15 pm before airing twice on New Year’s Day. The venue was kept strictly secret – with a press release saying only that it will be held in an “iconic” venue. But we hear it will be outdoors at the famous Beverly Hilton, where giant scaffolding, sound and lighting equipment were erected this week before the event, the spies said.
Bieber was also photographed rehearsing on the mystery scene on Wednesday.
But an angry local told us that Bieber’s sound check was not music to his ears. “It was like a car was parked outside my house playing music at a million decibels,” said the source. “A lot of people in the neighborhood called the hotel [to complain], and the hotel referred them to the Beverly Hills police and the licensing department. ”
A Beverly Hills police spokesman told Page Six when we asked about Bieber’s show and any noise complaints: “There were no resident calls to the Beverly Hills Police Department. Any noise complaints are being referred to the film / license office. This is an independent production that has obtained the necessary licenses. It is not sponsored by the city, so we have no additional details to provide. “
Bieber, hotel and Beverly Hills representatives did not respond.
Beverly Hilton recently underwent a $ 35 million renovation. Sources speculated that Bieber could perform at his iconic outdoor pool.
Ironically, Bieber and his wife, Hailey, recently moved out of the neighborhood: they put their Beverly Hills mansion on the market in October for $ 9 million, Variety reported, 19 months after buying the spread next to the complex. Jeff Bezos. The star couple moved to a larger mansion above Beverly Hills in a gated community.
Bieber previously said about the “NYE Live” show, sponsored by T-Mobile, in a statement: “We are working on more surprises to watch during this special night. I can’t wait to partner with them on this epic New Year’s show and give everyone a safe way to launch 2020 together. ”
It seems that some neighbors just want to end the year in a more relaxed way.
Bieber is one of several great musical artists who perform on New Year’s Eve, including BTS, Post Malone, Kiss and Kylie Minogue. He’s provoking rehearsals for his show on social media, showing his dance moves. Reports have said that the show will practice strict COVID security guidelines.
