Justin Bieber has been more reclusive in the past year between becoming a first-time dad and the unfortunate and unwarranted links to the P. Diddy sexual abuse scandal.
The “Baby” singer had decided to escape the spotlight and anything that could cause drama and trauma. However, since the new year began, Justin Bieber has decided to listen to Beyoncé‘s words and be outside!
The artist has been seen all over California and New York and vacationing in Aspen, Colorado, where he gave fans an eyeful in his Calvin Klein boxers.
Fans were delighted to see that Justin Bieber was doing better and that his old self was indulging in the fruits of his labor.
However, things have taken a dark turn in the past few weeks, and a disturbing behavior thread has emerged.
Justin Bieber was seen out and about in LA with no shirt on, looking like he was carrying the world’s weight on his shoulders. The Daily Mail writes: “Justin Bieber appears frail and unrecognizable, sparking concerns for his health.”
Additionally, he sadly returned to social media, where he shared videos where he is smoking. In a series of Instagram posts, Justin Bieber appeared to be smoking out of a bong — something that irked supporters because he has a baby boy.
Aware of the optics, the artist’s spokesperson told TMZ that looks can be deceiving. The rep explained that Justin Bieber looks drained and tired because he is.
He does not sleep much because he has a baby and spends long and dragging hours recording his upcoming album in the studio.
Bieber’s rep released a statement to TMZ to put an end to or at least quiet the speculation over the singer’s mental and physical condition and alleged drug use.
The rep said the following: “The narrative is exhausting and pitiful. Despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
The spokesperson added: “Contrary to public opinion, Bieber—who welcomed his first child, Jack Blues, with his wife Hailey Bieber in August—has significantly improved his life. The past year has transformed him, as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that were no longer beneficial. His current priorities are Hailey, their son, his health, and his art.”
However, Justin Bieber’s wife, Hailey Bieber, sings a more worrying tune. A source close to the model told Page Six she is concerned.
The insider stated that Hailey‘s love for Justin is unconditional and honest, but she is not immune to their challenges as human beings fighting many demons.
The outlet reported: “It is a reality he’s been open about, so it’s not a secret, that sometimes he is hit by the heavy and dark waves of life.”
A source told Page Six: “[She] isn’t sure how to manage things now. Justin is going through a hard time, and Hailey is doing her best to be there for him, but there’s only so much she can do. Hailey loves Justin with all her heart, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she’s happy. [Friends] have also been worried for Justin. They’ve seen him endure ups and downs throughout his relationship with Hailey. It’s something he’s been open about, so it’s not a secret.”
Bieber is still determined to move forward with his career.
