Even pressure on all sides makes an object even on all sides! A sphere has no sides therefore it is completely even everywhere.
A baloon isnt a sphere because of the way it was made..stronger rubber at the bottom which makes means that the pressure needs to find an easier way to expand (at the top) thats why it has that squashed look.

Because.......... they just are, that's why! LOL. LOL.
Scientists refer to them as "minimal surface structures". This means they always hold the gas or liquid inside with the least possible surface area.
The geometric form with the least surface area for any given volume is always a sphere, not a pyramid, or a cube, or any other form.
An exception (not really) to the rule is when a bubble is surrounded by other bubbles, it can be made to take on a seemingly odd shape. For instance, If a bubble is surrounded by six other bubbles, it appears to be a bubble cube! But if the surrounding bubbles are popped, the center bubble reverts to it's natural "round" shape. Always!

because the soaps are so that the bubbles are round.

very solid question! It comes from 2 forces performing against one yet another: the tension of the air interior the bubble and the outdoors rigidity of the outdoors. The air needs to unfolded in as super a volume as achievable. meanwhile, the soapy layer around the bubbles needs to contract to as little floor as achievable. the form with maximal volume for minimum floor is an ideal sphere. it is why bubbles tend to be around.

because a circular shape is the one who occupies less space and even if it was a rather big bubble it would still tend to be round...
plus dont you think it would look ridiculous as a square?

Well, I think it's because a sphere has the biggest possible content for the smallest possible eh... outer area. Wow, my English is leaving me fast now.
Surface, that's it, biggest content for the smallest surface.

because of pressure forces and tension extered on the bubble
