Shawn Mendes shows off fit physique as he goes shirtless for beach day in Brazil ahead of Rock In Rio concert

by

As a dedicated follower of Shawn Mendes‘ career, I must say that his journey has been nothing short of inspiring. From his humble beginnings on Vine to becoming a global superstar, he has shown resilience and determination that is truly commendable.

Shawn Mendes made heads turn while flaunting his ripped physique at a beach in Brazil on Friday.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but share that the artist behind the chart-topping song “Mercy,” at 26 years old, has been creating quite a stir lately with adoring fans. Just yesterday, he was spotted soaking up the sun and catching some waves without a shirt on, showcasing his toned abs honed through surfing.

He was seen dripping in water wearing just a pair of black trunks as he gave fans a glimpse of some of his 17 tattoos. 

The Canadian singer’s sun-kissed skin glistened as he made a splash in the waves and cooled off.

Shawn will appear on stage at the Rock in Rio festival this coming Sunday, and his recent appearance has been reported only a few days prior.

Every year for two years, the extensive Brazilian music festival held over multiple days begins on the 13th of September and concludes on the 22nd at the Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro.

Notable artists gracing the stage at the high-profile event are Ed Sheeran, Katy Perry, Imagine Dragons, Travis Scott, One Republic, Mariah Carey, 21 Savage, Ne-Yo, and Akon.

The event signifies his official comeback to the stage following the cancellation of his Wonder World Tour, which was scheduled for July 2022.

Shawn shocked fans in an Instagram post announcing the abrupt end at the time.

He mentioned that due to his lack of full readiness for the impact of resuming touring would have on him, he was forced to delay the last couple of performances.

Initially, I embarked on this tour filled with eagerness, looking forward to resuming live performances following an extended hiatus due to the pandemic. However, the truth is that I found myself utterly unprepared for the challenging aspects of touring post my break.

Following extended discussions with my team and collaboration with a remarkable team of healthcare experts, it’s now apparent that I require some personal time for self-reflection, with the aim of returning refreshed and more resilient.

The GRAMMY nominee stated: ‘Unfortunately, I must cancel the remaining tour dates in North America, the UK, and Europe. Initially, we had hoped that I could resume the rest of the performances after a necessary break, but currently, my health requires me to place top priority on it.’

He explained to fans that he was stepping away due to mental health concerns and that his heart went out to fans looking forward to the concert. 

He said, “You’ve been eagerly anticipating these shows, and it pains me deeply to share this news with you. But rest assured, I will return when I’ve had the necessary time to recover. I appreciate each and every one of you, and I can’t thank you enough for your unwavering support and companionship during this journey.

In about a month, Shawn will be returning to perform on the American stage, following his appearance at the MTV VMAs on September 11th.

On October 14, he’s set to start a series of concerts at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Following this, he will perform in Brooklyn on October 18, then move on to Los Angeles on October 22, and finally, Seattle on October 24.

Besides his performance in Japan, the singer from “Lost in Japan” has concert dates scheduled for March of the coming year in India and South America as well.
