Justin Bieber Shares Troubling Posts About Getting 'Exposed' And Asking 'God For Help' As Fans Worry
Justin Bieber recently opened up on Instagram about his emotional struggles, insecurities, and reliance on faith during a difficult period.
The singer described himself as flawed and vulnerable, sharing thoughts on love, personal growth, and daily emotional battles.
Justin Bieber's candid posts sparked concern among fans, especially amid rumors about his marriage to Hailey Bieber.
Bieber took to Instagram to offer fans a raw glimpse into his emotional state.
The 31-year-old artist shared multiple candid messages, revealing he's been leaning on faith during a challenging period.
In one particularly vulnerable post, Bieber described himself as "just an average flawed guy," acknowledging to his 294 million followers that he "continues to do and say things that hurt others unintentionally."
He continued, "Yet I woke up this morning with another opportunity to grow and not be so selfish today."
Reflecting on the power of love and how it has shaped his journey, the "Baby" hitmaker concluded with an emotional message.
"LOVE DRAWS US IN. LOVE DOESN'T CONDEMN. LOVE BELIEVES THE BEST," he wrote. "LOVE HOPES ALL THINGS. AND ENDURES ALL THINGS. IT DOESN'T KEEP RECORD OF WRONG. LOVE HELPS [YOU] TO FORGIVE AND LOVE EVEN YOUR ENEMIES."
In a follow-up post, Bieber got even more personal and touched on deeper struggles, including lingering insecurities and feeling like he's been taken advantage of.
"I sometimes think I'm gonna get exposed if I tell people how selfish I am," he confessed. "Like if I admitted that, maybe people wouldn't like me or trust me."
The Grammy winner noted: "I thought if I was honest about the selfish things I was feeling that I was gonna be disqualified from the dreams I had of being included."
"But the more honest I am about where I really am, the more freedom I actually have," Bieber added.
Bieber also reshared a heartfelt message originally posted in one of his photo captions, reflecting on the emotional rollercoaster he has been on.
"The truth is, I wake up every morning. Some days I'm optimistic. Sometimes I wake up pessimistic," Bieber admitted. "I can't control how I'm gonna feel."
Bieber revealed that in the past, he sometimes found himself unknowingly blaming God for waking up in a low mood instead of reaching out in prayer for a shift in mindset.
"I can't control how I'm gonna feel," he wrote. "I would find myself even subconsciously blaming god for the bad feeling I woke up with rather than communicate with him and ask him to help me have a change of perspective."
He added: "I've been really asking god to help me see the best in people even after being used in the way I have."
Bieber's latest post comes after a source revealed that he has left his former close circle worried about him.
According to People Magazine, the source noted that the star has been plagued by a lot of "demons," which seem to include his past ties to embattled rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs, who is currently in jail awaiting trial, and his fractured relationship with his former manager, Scooter Braun.
"He is facing a lot of different demons right now," the source told the news outlet. "He is making some really poor decisions lately, further impacting friendships, money, and business."
"People are worried about him," the insider added.
Meanwhile, concerns about Bieber's mental well-being continue to mount, with former collaborators speaking out in a recent piece by The Hollywood Reporter.
Longtime musical partner Poo Bear, the hitmaker behind songs like "Despacito," "What Do You Mean?" and "Where Are Ü Now," expressed his hope for Bieber to be okay, stating "Whatever he's going through, I pray for him and hope he's OK."
One former team member didn't hold back, describing a troubling decline: "Seeing him disintegrate like this… It's watching the embodiment of someone not living their purpose. He's lost. There's no one protecting him because there's no one there willing to say no to him. You say no, you get blown out."
Despite growing public concern, someone from the singer's inner circle downplayed the speculation, telling the publication, "Artists are artists — they don't look at the world the way you and I do. He's healthier than all of us — physically and mentally."

‘Star Wars: Starfighter' Adds ‘Frankenstein' Star Mia Goth
As much as we'd love to see a Star Wars movie that just stars Ryan Gosling, Star Wars: Starfighter was never going to be that. He needs co-stars, aliens, droids, and now the very first of those may have come into view. The InSneider reports, and io9 has confirmed, that Mia Goth, the actress best known for her roles in Pearl, X, and MaXXXine, who'll soon appear Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, has been cast in the film. No word on what the role is, but reporter Jeff Sneider writes it is the same one Anora-star and Oscar-winner Mikey Madison was circling before moving along. This story is developing…

Patti LuPone's drama is dividing the Broadway community ahead of the Tony Awards
Patti LuPone may have apologized for some recent controversial remarks, but that doesn't mean the curtain has dropped on the drama. The actress sparked a major backlash after disparaging comments she made about fellow Broadway stars Kecia Lewis and Audra McDonald in a recent interview with the New Yorker. LuPone referred to Lewis as a 'b**ch' and said McDonald was 'not a friend.' Hundreds of performers from Broadway and other theater communities then wrote a letter in which they characterized LuPone's comments as 'degrading and misogynistic—it is a blatant act of racialized disrespect.' 'It constitutes bullying. It constitutes harassment,' they wrote. 'It is emblematic of the microaggressions and abuse that people in this industry have endured for far too long, too often without consequence.' The group called for LuPone to be disinvited from industry events, including Sunday's Tony Awards. LuPone apologized last weekend on social media, posting a statement in which she said she hoped to be able to speak with the pair to make 'sincere apologies.' 'I am deeply sorry for the words I used during The New Yorker interview, particularly about Kecia Lewis, which were demeaning and disrespectful,' Lupone wrote. 'I regret my flippant and emotional responses during this interview, which were inappropriate, and I am devastated that my behavior has offended others and has run counter to what we hold dear in this community.' The controversy ahead of the Tony Awards has raised interest in the event, sparking conversation about whether LuPone, who has long reigned as Broadway star, will make an appearance. But not everyone feels harshly towards her. Actress Mia Farrow has garned a Tony nomination for the Broadway play 'The Roommate' in which she costars with LuPone. In a recently published interview with Deadline, Farrow talked about her 30-year friendship with the woman she dubbed the 'goddess of Broadway.' 'We live near each other. Always have. Two of our kids were in the same class at school, at the same school, her son and my son, and I met her on New Year's Eve, actually,' Farrow told the publication. 'She and her husband gave a New Year's Eve party, and Steve Sondheim, who was one of my oldest friends, 50 years, he invited me to come to the party at Patti's 30 years ago, and that's how I met Patti.' Farrow, who mentioned the New Yorker interview in her conversation with Deadline without addressing the controversy, said working with her neighbor and friend was a positive experience. 'Patti and I never had a negative moment, by the way,' Farrow said. 'Working together didn't change our friendship. I think our friendship is deeper now.' 'Abbott Elementary' star Sheryl Lee Ralph, who is also a decorated Broadway performer, most notably playing the role of Deena Jones in the original 1981 production of 'Dreamgirls,' weighed in as well. 'Why not be nice?' Ralph said of LuPone. And while Ralph said she was 'not going to judge' LuPone, she did have some words of wisdom for the 'Evita' star. 'It was a moment where maybe you want to zip it,' she said. 'Inner thoughts don't always have to be outer thoughts, that might have been one of those moments.' British weekly conservative magazine writer Ella Whelan penned a piece with the headline, 'Patti LuPone is a diva – not a racist.' 'LuPone is notorious for putting the broad in Broadway – her loud mouth is infamous,' Whelan wrote, noting some of her other outspoken comments. 'Forget white privilege, this is diva privilege – when you're that good an entertainer, you can pretty much say what you want,' Whelan added. The 78th Annual Tony Awards, hosted by 'Wicked' film star and Tony, Grammy and Emmy award-winner Cynthia Erivo, will be broadcast live on Sunday, June 8 at 8 p.m. ET on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+ in the US.

Chicago's Boom2Funny talks inspiration behind comedy, teaching kids on content creation
Chicago native Johnta Richmond, also known online as Boom2Funny, has over one million social media followers and is a TikTok sensation. The West Side turned South Sider credits his real-life experience for the success of his videos. "It kinda came from a real-life ex who's always popping up everywhere I go after we broke up, and then she knew everything about me, she knew my whole family, she knew everything, so I'm like I'm going to put in my kinda portrayal," he said. He said he didn't think that the postings would explode the way it has. "The very first time I did it, I did not, but the numbers went up. I got a million in one day, and I was like 'oh, okay,' and then I did one at a graduation with a boy who never met me before, he didn't know what was going on, walked up and di the video, and that video did 14 million," he said. Richmond is not just making content but also teaching kids how to make content safely through a program called Social Impact. "It's here to teach the kids how to use the internet in a safe way. We have so many kids posting with each other and getting into it, fights and killing, so I decided to come in and teach them content creation," he said. He sees the art of teaching content creation as a benefit to young people in the city, as "the internet is the new TV." "Chicago is so creative," he said. I teach from first grade all the way to 12th grade, so I get so many personalities." As for his videos, being accurate is key. "If you get a chance, check out any of the videos. I try to make it as accurate as possible, relative. Everybody has some kind of boom in them," he said. His videos can be found on YouTube and TikTok.
