Shawn Mendes Is Taking A Break From TikTok - Find Out Why!

Shawn Mendes shows off his pearly whites while arriving for the 2021 “We Can Survive” Concert hosted by Audacy held at Hollywood Bowl on Saturday night (October 23) in Los Angeles.

The 23-year-old musician stepped out for the event, which benefitted the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The organization gives those affected by suicide a nationwide community empowered by research, education and advocacy to take action against this leading cause of death.

Ahead of his performance, Shawn opened up about why he was taking a break from TikTok right now.

“TikTok is great. I have extreme social media addiction, so I have to really balance myself out,” he explained to Audacy. “I have to delete those apps every now and again.”

Shawn added that he’s “on a TikTok break right now. But when I have it, it’s everything…I am a child of Vine. They’re different, TikTok is much more advanced.”
