Justin Bieber snaps at fan inquiring about his wellbeing in shock comment
Justin Bieber had a barbed response to a fan inquiring about his wellbeing in a shock social media comment.
The hitmaker, 31 - whose wife Hailey said she would be in 'therapy all summer long' on social media - publicly hit back after a fan said they were 'worried' for him.
On May 21, a meme account on Instagram shared a screenshot of a text message from somebody dubbed Grandpa, who wrote, 'I'm worried about Justin Beber [sic],' later adding, 'There is so much heartbreak in Justin's life.'
The person who posted on Instagram under the hashtag Grandpa added, 'We all are.'
The Grammy winner appeared somewhat taken aback by the concern and responded on Monday with a snarky, 'Worry about yourself gramps.'
'I find myself often saying, "I feel sad for Justin Bieber." It's a regular thing for me,' wrote one commenter.
'He's just being vulnerable and living his best life,' wrote a defender, who added, 'But about heartbreak, mine too grandpa. Concerned.'
Bieber has taken a break from performing since being diagnosed with Ramsey Hunt syndrome in 2023, which resulted in facial paralysis and affected his ability to sing, but his recent, seemingly erratic behavior has created headlines and concern.
The angry artist shared a quick moving video clip that included the original post, his response and fan response to the controversy including comments that the Yummy singer is 'pissssed' and 'so over yalls bs.'
The Love Me artist shared another religious post on Tuesday, putting up a screengrab of a text message.
'Jesus is for freedom. Jesus is for forgiveness,' the message read.
'Forgiveness if for freedom. Freedom is for everyone. Forgiveness is for everyone. Jesus is for everyone. Amen Amen. Jesus is with us.'
'This is giving Kanye West,' replied a fan in response to the post, referencing the troubled rapper.
'If Jesus is King Justin, why do you alter your brain with substances?' referring to rumors of Bieber's alleged drug use.
The hitmaker made this shocking reply on Monday
On Tuesday, the Yummy singer posted this religious text thread to his Instagram page, resulting in concern and praise from his fans
Some compared the post to those shared by trouble rapper Kanye West in the past. Omg this is taking me back to Kayne West screenshots of his messages on X' wrote a follower
The singer's reps have staunchly denied he abuses drugs, but he has hinted about smoking marijuana.
'I'm worried about Hailey,' was the response of another concerned onlooker.
The Rhode Skin founder has worked hard to put to rest rumors that her nearly six-year marriage to the hitmaker is in trouble.
My real life is that I get to wake up to my beautiful family and my son and my friends and I have people that know me and love me and I love them,' she said in the May issue of Vogue.
In the interview, Hailey also shared some details about giving birth, revealing it did not go as planned.
Doctors had to induce labor after she began leaking amniotic fluid and she experienced dangerous bleeding after the birth of son Jack, now nine months old.
Amid pushback against the rumors and concerns for his health, Justin shared a sweet snap on Tuesday of the little one touching his leg while relaxing at home.
'Button for worry about yourself gramps,' responded a fan.

Heston Blumenthal: Mood swings fuelled the chef's genius. But the highs got higher and the lows got darker
"We just wanted a relaxing conversation with our dad and we weren't able to have one," says Jack Blumenthal. "It was horrible. And it was constant."Raw pain is etched on Jack's father's face as he finally realises how his undiagnosed mental illness - and erratic manic behaviour - hurt the ones he loves the a new BBC documentary, celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal is talking to his son for the first time about how he became impossible to live with."We'd plan it three weeks in advance, getting prepared just to see you for half an hour," says Jack, who now runs a restaurant himself. "And there was nothing I could do to help you."Heston wipes a tear away. "I'm sorry," he says. 'Wired differently' At the height of his fame in the 2000s, Heston Blumenthal was a culinary icon. Known for bacon-and-egg ice cream, snail porridge, and theatrical dining, he was a big brand worth big bucks. But behind the molecular gastronomy and Michelin stars, his mind was increasingly in years, he thought he was simply "wired differently".Heston had long believed his emotional highs and lows were just part of who he was - part of the creative chaos that fuelled his culinary genius. In the early years, his imagination ran riot in a positive way, he gradually, the depression worsened. The highs became higher and the lows much recalls having to "lie on the floor to cope" during the filming of a cooking programme several years ago. At one point, he felt as though his new ideas were like thousands of sweets falling from the sky - and he could only catch a in late 2023, a manic episode escalated into psychosis. Heston was hallucinating guns and had become obsessed with was admitted to hospital for the first time - and finally diagnosed with bipolar disorder. "How did I get to 57 years-old before I was diagnosed?" he asks. I recently sat down with world-renowned psychiatrist Prof John Geddes to watch a new BBC new documentary I'd been collaborating on - "Heston: My Life with Bipolar".In the programme there's a clip of Heston being interviewed by the BBC in 2020 about using robots in the kitchen. He uses surreal, nonsensical metaphors: "I want to put the shadow back into the sunlight, I want to put the inside out back into the outside in… I want to put the being back into the human."Watching the interview, Prof Geddes says it's clear Heston was "in the midst of mania" at the time. "If I'd seen that then I would have immediately thought, 'That is a sick man'," he high-octane celebrity chef's environment allowed his erratic behaviour to thrive. His eccentricity wasn't only accepted, but celebrated. His brand flourished, nurturing the capricious genius, and he was supported by a team that kept him functioning. But at home there was no such infrastructure - no such from Bipolar UK suggests that for every person with bipolar disorder, a further five family members - like Heston's son Jack - are profoundly affected."Families fall apart because of the mania more than the depression," says Prof Geddes. Lithium lifeline During six months of filming, Heston's psychiatrists wean him off the cocktail of pills prescribed to him after his hospital visit, and he is moved onto the mood-stabilising medicine, isn't an easy process. Changing medications can offer trigger extreme reactions, so to do it on camera is Heston is subdued. He says the antipsychotics and antidepressants make him feel "zombified" and his memories are as time passes his mood lifts, his energy returns, and he regains some of his old swagger. Lithium is working for him - and you start to recognise the Heston of years gone the end of filming the documentary, Heston is keen to ask me about my own research into bipolar care in the man I speak to is definitely still Heston - obsessing over the perfect peppercorn ratio - but now he's calm, focused, and Geddes isn't surprised."Lithium is the gold standard of care, but in the UK we don't use it enough," he says. "It requires careful management from GPs and psychiatrists. In the NHS, the system simply can't keep up - that's probably one of the reasons why lithium use is falling in the UK, when it should be rising."The UK has a stark shortage of psychiatrists and mental health professionals so patients face waits that often stretch over years. On average it takes someone more than nine years to be diagnosed with bipolar disorder from first contact with a my many interviews about the disorder, I heard psychiatrists describe bipolar patients as "ghosts in the system", "the ones that fell through the cracks" and simply as "forgotten" or "let down".Lithium use, and timely access to psychiatrists are both directly linked to a reduction in suicidal thoughts in people with bipolar disorder. In the UK, death by suicide is rising for people living with the illness. This bucks all other downward trends for suicide. Learning to live with the fire Heston's diagnosis came only after he became a danger to himself - hallucinations, paranoia, and eventually a call from his wife to emergency weeks spent in a mental health clinic, and a year of medication and rebuilding his mind, given the choice Heston says he wouldn't turn off his bipolar disorder if he could. It is a part of him. This answer captures the essence of his journey - of learning to live with the fire, not extinguish it."Someone living with bipolar cannot be separated from it - their personality is entirely and intrinsically connected to the condition," says Prof Geddes. "Treatment doesn't erase it, but it does make the mood changes manageable and helps a person function within their ecosystem - with their family, friends and job."Heston's journey mirrors that of many: misunderstood mood swings, delayed diagnosis, and the long road to balance. But it's also a story of identity, resilience, and the power of clarity after culinary world once masked his illness. Now, it gives him a platform to speak out - and he's using it.
