Justin Bieber looked back and looked forward during an appearance on Ellen this week.

The singer and the host talked about how the interview – which has already been taped and which will air across the country on December 5 – marked Justin’s 26th time as a guest on the program, with DeGeneres remaining Bieber of all they’ve been through.

They celebrated his 18th birthday on air.

In this case, meanwhile, Bieber had another exciting announcement to make, but not before Ellen asked the obligatory question about his love life:

Who is Justin dating?

"I’m not dating anybody, I’m single,” Bieber replied immediately, adding: “I’m not really looking either."

So much for that Selena Gomez marriage rumor we guess, huh?

Coming across far more subdued than usual, Bieber gave pretty short answers to Ellen’s questions, which included whether he’s ever been on Tinder and whether he gets lonely on the road.

(Yes, Justin admitted, which may explain why he used an ad to lure women to a hotel room in Prague.)

But enough about Bieber’s personal life. What about his professional life?

The artist and the comedian surprised the audience with a major announcement about what fans can expect from Justin Bieber in 2017.

What prompted all in attendance to stand up and and cheer wildly? FIND OUT NOW:
