The `Suit & Tie` singer - who released his first new single in six years earlier this month - has confirmed he will perform live for the first time in more than five years a pre-Super Bowl party next month.
The `Friends with Benefits` actor - who married his girlfriend of four years Jessica Biel in Italy in October - will appear at an invite-only charity bash, which will benefit the Shriners Hospitals For Children - hosted by cable company DirectTV, at the DTV Superfan Stadium in New Orleans on February 2.
The concert comes just weeks after the six-time Grammy Award winner - who took a break to focus on his acting career - released his new collaboration featuring Jay-Z and confirmed he plans to release his third album `The 20/20 Experience` later this year.
Justin, 31, wrote an open letter to his fans announcing `Suit and Tie` and talking about his inspiration and the making of the album.
He wrote: "So, here goes: This year is an exciting one for me. As you probably have heard through the `grapevine,` I`m gearing up for a big 2013. Back in June of last year, I quietly started working on what is now, my next journey with that thing I love called MUSIC (sic).
"The inspiration for this really came out of the blue and to be honest, I didn`t expect anything out of it. I just went into the studio and started playing around with some sounds and songs. It was probably the best time I`ve had in my career... Just creating with no rules and/or end goal in mind and really enjoying the process (sic)."
The `SexyBack` hitmaker previously hit the headlines at the Super Bowl in 2004, when he ripped off part of Janet Jackson`s corset while performing the high profile half time show and exposed her breast.
He was later forced to apologise at the Grammy Awards for the controversial "wardrobe malfunction".
