Michael Buble has apparently officially retired from music, effective… immediately.
According to what he claimed is his “last interview” ever with Daily Mail’s Weekend magazine, Buble got real about fighting his son’ cancer diagnosis several years ago, and how that has changed him as a person and a performer.

Speaking to the mag, Buble recounted how Noah, now 5, battled liver cancer in a life-changing way for their entire family (below):
“You just want to die. I don’t even know how I was breathing. My wife was the same and even though I was the stronger of the two of us, I wasn’t strong. My wife was… I’m sorry, I can’t make it to the end of that sentence.”
A very emotional Buble also spoke to the mag about how fleeting and useless social media networks have become, and how now that his new album Love was on the way, he felt it was time to walk away from the music industry for good.
Buble said (below):
“I don’t have the stomach for it any more. The celebrity narcissism. This is my last interview. I’m retiring. I decided I’ll never read my name again in print, never read a review, and I never have. I decided I’d never use social media again, and I never have. Why are we here? Is this all there is? Because if this is all there is, there has to be something bigger. My whole being’s changed. My perception of life.”
Wow!
And he confirmed that, at least as of right now, he will retire from music following the release of his upcoming album.
So sad — but given his reasoning, understandable!!!
Thoughts, Perezcious readers??
