Tomlinson said although he can sympathise with the Canadian pop superstar, he believes he owed it to his legion of fans to complete the dates.
The Sorry singer made headlines when he announced last week that he had
decided to cancel the remaining dates on his Purpose World Tour after "two
years on the road".
While the majority of musical stars have praised Justin for putting his mental
and physical health first, former One Direction star Louis had a different view
on the situation.
"Obviously, you have to be in a good position mentally, but I also
think, to a certain degree, when you're signing up to something, you should see
it through," Louis said during an interview on 92.3 AMP Radio.
Justin kicked off his tour in March, 2016, and pulled the plug with just
15 dates to go. When it comes to finding success in the music industry, Louis
is well aware of how vital support is from fans.
"There's never enough that I can say or do for the fans," he
said. "At the end of the day, it's the people who are buying the records
that are putting you where you are."
Louis comments are in contrast to those made by John Mayer, who was one
of the first stars to support Justin following news of his tour's cancellation.
In an interview with Variety, John opened up once again about why he is
supporting Justin, and why his fans should too.
"With touring dates, you hope you do them all, and I don't know his
situation, but I appreciated the transparency," John told the magazine.
"There are a hundred different reasons you can give for cancelling a tour.
I think the one that goes; 'I think I'm done' is the bravest and healthiest
one."
