Bieber was launched into stardom at a young age. At just 13, he was discovered by talent manager Scooter Braun and then signed by Usher.
The singer’s debut album ‘My World’ established him as a teen idol with his first hit song on Billboard Hot 100 at 15, ‘One Less Lonely Girl.’
Throughout the years, gossip and speculation have surrounded Bieber’s life, and he has been at the center of tabloid news.
Recently, a number of the singer’s public appearances have left fans troubled.
Taking to social media to share their thoughts, one person says: “Honestly, he’s been through a lot, and with the recent stuff that came out, old memories probably put him in a bad head space. I don’t blame him for not looking happy all the time.”
Another concerned fan writes: “Justin Bieber’s post is really concerning. It’s so important to remember that even celebrities go through tough times. Hoping he gets the support he needs.”
“He is so talented! I hope everything‘s okay. I feel like he was forced to grow up super fast and this happens to a lot of young stars. Hopefully, he can get the help he needs,” a third follower shares.
Bieber’s recent demeanor seemingly coincides with the downfall of his former mentor, Diddy.
The music producer, whose real name is Sean Combs, has been accused of kidnapping, drugging, and coercing women into s**ual activities.
Diddy has vehemently denied all accusations made against him.
Sources indicate Bieber is deeply troubled by the allegations against Diddy – he is yet to speak out or comment on the situation.
The ‘Boyfriend’ singer has recently been spotted looking exhausted with deep, dark circles under his eyes, leading many on social media to speculate the artist is using hard drugs.
A representative for Bieber told TMZ that the recurring narrative that he is on hard drugs is not true.
The rep added that the past year had been: “Very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.”
They also touched on the persistent narrative surrounding the singer’s mental and physical health, which they said was: “Exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
Bieber’s rep shared that he’s focusing on his wife, Hailey, and their son, Jack Blues.
Despite his recent statement, fans continue to express concern for the singer’s well-being.
In the latest chapter of Justin Bieber’s journey, a recent Instagram post has sparked fresh worry among his followers.
The ‘One Time’ artist shared a deeply personal message:
“I was always told as a kid not to hate. But that made me feel like I wasn’t allowed to, so I kept it inside. It left me feeling like I was drowning—afraid to even acknowledge it. I think the only way to release hate is by first admitting it’s there.
How could we not feel hate after all the pain we’ve been through?”
Bieber also opened up about his struggles with self-perception, admitting that he often feels like a “fraud,” describing himself as “sneaky,” and saying he feels “unequipped and unqualified most days.”
