Justin Bieber's recent public appearances have left fans concerned about his health due to his behavior.
However, the pop star’s team has dismissed certain rumors, calling them “negative” and “harmful.” They deny the allegations and provide an explanation for his troubling appearance.
Justin Bieber Rep Dismisses Harmful Drug Use Rumors
Justin Bieber's thin and worn-out appearance in public has worried fans, with some linking it to drug use.
These speculations intensified after images of him looking disheveled and a video of him displaying odd behavior went viral online.
However, a representative for the chart-topping artist told TMZ that these accusations about his health are “exhausting and pitiful” and show that “despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
Bieber’s rep firmly denied the claims, stating that he is “in one of the best places in his life” as he embraces fatherhood. He and his wife, Hailey Bieber, recently welcomed their six-month-old son, Jack Blues Bieber, while he also focuses on his music career.
“The last year was very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him,” the rep further explained.
Another source told Us Weekly that the Canadian singer is “happier than he’s been in a long time” and added that he simply does not care what others think.
Justin Bieber’s Change in Appearance Worries Fans
The rumors about Bieber going on a downward spiral started in February when he was seen during an outing in New York looking tired, with dark circles under his eyes.
However, according to TMZ, sources say that the Yummy artist had been up all night recording while also caring for his son, who was having trouble sleeping.
Last week, a video clip of the singer at Hailey Bieber’s Rhode Skin pop-up event in Los Angeles surfaced online.
Bieber was all smiles while talking to Sara Tan, Refinery29’s Beauty Director, but fans found his overly giddy demeanor, as he swayed from side to side, concerning.
At the same time that rumors about his mental health surfaced, his marriage also became a topic of speculation. In January, the singer-songwriter unfollowed his wife on Instagram, sparking divorce rumors.
Before Bieber’s reps addressed the speculation, fans also believed that the arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs, Bieber’s former associate, may have contributed to the noticeable changes in his appearance.
Some worry that with news about the disgraced music mogul resurfacing, Bieber might be reliving childhood trauma, which could be affecting his physical and mental health.
The Grammy-winning artist previously opened up to GQ in 2021 about his past struggles with drug addiction. Despite his success, he said he had felt overwhelming sadness and pain, turning to hard drugs as a way to numb himself.
According to TMZ, Bieber has been sober from drugs since 2014 and only drinks alcohol socially.
