Over the weekend reports emerged that Michael Bublé would be quitting music, after he said in a recent interview with Daily Mail's Weekend Magazine, "I'm retiring from the business. I've made the perfect record and now I can leave at the very top."

However, after Bublé fans around the world were left devastated, it turns out that everything was not as it seems, as the singer's publicist has now released a statement saying that he WON'T be slowing down any time soon!

Liz Rosenberg told the press via Metro.co.uk, "Michael Bublé has absolutely no plans to retire. Perhaps as he discussed the different emotions he’s been through these last few years, that thought might have gone through his mind."

She continued, "I assure you with a new album coming out, TV appearances, and a possible tour, he is not retiring."

After taking a break from music following his young son's cancer diagnosis in 2016, Michael then returned to making music again about a year ago, and his new album 'Love' is set to be released next month.

He has also been working with James Corden on a Carpool Karaoke special edition for the Stand Up To Cancer fundraising campaign.

Check out some of the most memorable Carpool Karaoke episodes:

Chris Martin

James gave Chris a lift to the 2016 Superbowl and on route performed hits like 'Paradise' and 'Hymm For The Weekend', with Chris even bringing along a keyboard!

Adele

Filmed when James returned back to the UK for Christmas, the pair belt out some of Adele's classics including 'Hello' and 'Someone Like You'.


Whilst having a chat about Adele's fellow celebrities, the pair burst out into Spice Girls song 'Wannabe' and even rap to Nicki Minaj!

Ed Sheeran

Perhaps the most anticipated Carpool ever! After his year long break from music Ed Sheeran returned with a bang!


Bringing his guitar into the car, Ed and James performed the likes of 'Shape Of You', 'Castle On The Hill' and 'Sing' and then Ed tried to fit A LOT of Malteasers into his mouth!

One Direction

Harry, Niall, Liam and Louis joined James before they started their hiatus and to date it's one of our favourites!


The boys discussed life in the band and had perfect harmonies with James to some of their biggest songs.

James also asked Katy about her ever-changing appearance before having a sing-a-long to her catchy hits.

Bruno Mars

Bruno Mars dressed to impress for his episode of Carpool!


The 'Uptown Funk' singer showed he's still got the moves even when he's sitting down when himself and James belted out some of his biggest hits.

Lady Gaga

It wouldn't be Lady Gaga if she didn't show up wearing a totally unique outfit and that's exactly what happened during her Carpool episode!


With James dressing up in some of Lady Gaga's most iconic outfits, the pair belted out hits such as 'Bad Romance' and 'Just Dance'.

Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas

Best friends Demi and Nick joined James back in June 2016 and they certainly didn't disappoint.


As well as singing hits such as 'Jealous', 'Close' and 'Heart Attack', the pair discussed who's dating who and even got out of the car to make a couple of dollars busking.

Michelle Obama and Missy Elliott

In perhaps the funniest Carpool ever, James visited the White House to pick up Michelle Obama for a special Carpool.

King of cool Usher certainly had a busy time during his episode of Carpool.


As well as singing and dancing, the pair went for a walk on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and even had to push a broken down car at one point!

Jennifer Lopez

When 'Jenny From The Block' joined James it was always going to be something special!


In between singing J.Lo's biggest hits, Jennifer spilled the beans on how many times she's been proposed to, and James sent THAT text to Leonardo DiCaprio.

Ariana Grande

Pop princess Ariana Grande joined James on the show in August 2018, with the pair belting out hits such as 'No Tears Left To Cry', 'Side To Side' and even a Celine Dion classic!

In the interview published at the weekend, Michael revealed, "My whole being's changed. My perception of life. I don't know if I can even get through this conversation without crying. And I've never lost control of my emotions in public."

Earlier this year, Michael opened up about the tough time he and his family went through when Noah was diagnosed with cancer. Speaking to an Australian publication, Herald Sun, he revealed he's "been to hell".

Going on to say, "You know what? Hell seems like a really nice place to vacation compared to where we've been...I don't talk about the whole story, not even to my friends because it hurts too much."

Along with Noah, Michael and his wife Luisana are parents to two other children, including their most recent addition, a little girl called Vida Amber Betty, which had a beautiful meaning behind it.

Vida means 'life' in Spanish, Luisana's first language. Amber is the name of Michael Bublé's mum and Betty is Luisana's mum's name.
