Justin Bieber could be placed in conservatorship by Hailey if she can prove 3 points to court amid his bizarre behavior
JUSTIN Bieber could be placed in a conservatorship by wife Hailey if she can prove three key points to the courts amid his concerning behavior, a legal expert has told The U.S. Sun.
In recent weeks, the pop star has gone on bizarre rants and appeared incoherent in photographs and videos - leading many fans to believe it's time for Justin, 31, to seek help.

If Justin's behavior continues to be as dangerous as many believe, it's not out of the question that he could be placed in a conservatorship for his well-being.
"As a seasoned attorney, I'll say this bluntly: If Justin Bieber's recent behavior is as troubling as reported amidst erratic social media posts, visible signs of impairment, and statements hinting at isolation and emotional instability, then YES, a conservatorship could be considered,' powerhouse legal expert Jamie Wright exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
However, the decision would not be made lightly, as the acclaimed lawyer made it clear that conservatorships are 'legal nuclear options.'
'In California, a conservatorship is a court-ordered plan where a designated person (conservator) is appointed to manage the affairs, personal care, or finances of an adult deemed unable to manage these on their own.
'This isn't just about being 'out of it' on Instagram. Courts require substantial medical evidence, and the bar is high.
'Especially post-Britney, with the public and legal community rightfully wary of abuses in the system,' Counselor Wright said of Britney Spears' unprecedented, and historic, conservatorship case.
She went on to explain that in most conservatorship cases, the spouse or parent would have legal standing to file.
However, in order for Hailey, 28, or Justin's mom, Pattie Mallette, to have a case, they would need to 'demonstrate that Justin is incapable of making rational decisions, poses a risk to himself or others — including his infant son, or is unable to manage his financial empire,' she claimed.

'If a conservatorship were granted, it could have profound implications. Legally, Justin could lose control over decisions about his health, money, and even parental rights.
'Custody of his child could be questioned if there's evidence he's an unfit parent.
'It would certainly put pressure on his marriage with Hailey and would raise serious reputational questions that could derail future endorsements, brand partnerships, and touring plans.
"He's young, powerful, and high-profile, so any conservatorship move would face intense public scrutiny and likely pushback," the attorney added.
Justin Bieber sparks concern with series of worrying selfies as he refers to drugs in shock post

'But when safety, especially of a child, is on the line, no one is untouchable. If this situation escalates, the law will step in.
'Bottom line, no one wants to see another celebrity conservatorship saga play out — but if the signs are as serious as they seem, it's not out of the question," Counselor Wright stated.
'HE NEEDS HELP'
Recently, Justin sparked concern with a series of comments he's made online - including openly discussing drug use and being "done with transactional relationships."
Things escalated further when the Sorry singer took to his Instagram Stories, posting close-up selfies where many said he looked "unwell."
One slide he shared this week featured a screenshot from an AI chat interface asking: 'Has ketamine been used to control people's emotions?'
The AI chatbot allegedly answered: 'There is clear evidence that ketamine has been misused in certain law enforcement scenarios, particularly in ways that amount to chemical restraint or social control."
In another slide, Justin superimposed text over a photo of himself looking defeated: 'This is how I feel after people keep telling me theres more work to do after the ive given everything I have to give.'
Welcome Baby Bieber!
Singer Justin Bieber and his wife, model Hailey Bieber, welcomed their first child in August 2024.
The celebrity couple revealed that they were expecting in May when Hailey was already six months pregnant.
The pair announced the birth on August 24, sharing their son's name, Jack Blues Bieber, for the first time.
Justin shared a photo of Hailey's hand touching their newborn's foot, which was wrapped in a blanket.
Fans immediately congratulated Hailey and Justin while pointing out the family connection of the name Jack.
Justin's great-grandfather was Jack Arnold, and his father, Jeremy Bieber, has Jack as a middle name.
He followed up with: 'I don't think any of us can handle hearing 'You just gotta try a little harder and you will be like me.' It's not true.
"I listened to those fools who told me to work harder. And there's no end to trying to earn ur spot in this life because I tried. U have everything u need right now.'
On another snap, he admitted: 'We wanna make our life about work so bad. But this life is about God. Loving us so we can love each other. Quit making ur life about work smh. God will always inspire u to wait to work hard.
'U think if you don't tell people to work hard that they won't. Stop playing God please.'
Justin went on: 'Conditioning. Will make u feel i didn't know what the f*** u knew.'
This cryptic post was followed by another black-and-white selfie with the caption: 'But I f***in always knew in my gut Jesus was always the answer to pain we are all facing.
'People still keep making me think If I work hard on myself I'll be better like them. But the harder I work on myself the more I think about myself. I though the point was to think about one another?'
He finished with: 'The only thing that helps me to think about others to let go not try harder. Join me in letting go of not trying harder.'
This follows reports that Justin is also facing great financial strain - allegedly owing his former manager, Scooter Braun, over $8 million, audits obtained by TMZ claim.

‘It's more frustration with you guys' – Rory McIlroy explains skipping media in tense interview after US Open nightmare
RORY MCILORY insists he's "earned the right to do whatever I want to do" after snubbing the press after his first two US Open Rounds. The Masters champion declined to speak to the world's media after his first two rounds at Oakmont in an apparent response to the coverage of his use of an illegal driver at last month's PGA Championship. 4 4 The 36-year-old eventually spoke with the press after his four-over 74 round on Saturday and didn't hold back in his first post-round interview since Augusta. He said of his brief blackout: "It's just frustration with you guys [some sections of the media]. "I have been totally available for the past number of years. "That [driver issue] was a part of it, but at Augusta, I skipped you guys on Thursday. It's not out of the ordinary as I've done it before, but I am doing it a little more often. "I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do." McIlroy's form has fallen off a cliff since sealing his career Grand Slam in April. He looked certain to miss the cut — like defending champion Bryson DeChambeau and plenty of other big names — until he conjured two birdies in the last four holes of his second round. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS Inside Rory McIlroy's whirlwind love life RORY MCILROY enjoyed a high-profile romance with former tennis world number one Caroline Wozniacki before their split in 2014. The following year, the golf ace began dating Erica Stoll, who he had first met on the PGA Tour in 2011. Erica often interacted with players through her role as the PGA's manager of championship volunteer operations. She even prevented McIlroy from missing his tee time at the 2012 Ryder Cup after some confusion over the time zone. The incident began a firm friendship between the pair, four years before their relationship turned romantic. McIlroy and Erica were spotted on a string of dates in Rochester, New York, in the early days of their relationship. Just eight months later, the couple got engaged in Paris and walked down the aisle at Ashford Castle in Ireland in 2017. The pair then welcomed daughter Poppy into the world three years later. Throughout their time together, McIlroy and Erica have kept their relationship to themselves, with the golfer keen to protect his family from the cameras during filming of Netflix's Full Swing documentary series. However, after seven years of marriage, McIlroy filed for divorce from Erica. The reasons for the divorce were not disclosed, but the Northern Irishman submitted documents to a court in Florida. However, a few weeks later, performed a U-turn on their decision to divorce. McIlroy told the outlet: "Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.' And McIlory admitted his lack of motivation is so bad that he would not have worried if he had missed the cut. He said: 'I was thinking, 'Do I really want two more days here?'. So it makes it easier to play better in that mindset. Rory McIlroy reacts to PGA Championship delay 'You don't know how you're going to react to something like my Masters win — something I'd dreamt about for a long time. And, yeah, I have felt a little flat on the golf course afterwards. 'I actually feel I've played OK this week. It's a golf course where the tiniest mistakes get penalised.' Given his mindset, it is no surprise McIlroy's faint US Open hopes vanished with a whimper rather than a roar. A four-over-par 74 kept the Northern Irishman among the back markers, and in this mood, he will do well to improve on his 47th-place finish at the USPGA a few weeks ago. At times, it has looked as if McIlroy has been going through the motions since Augusta, especially when he finished 149th out of 153 finishers in the Canadian Open last week. Sadly, Oakmont has proved another example of McIlroy playing without his usual drive and desire. It was hard to avoid the suspicion that he set out yesterday knowing he was unlikely to make significant inroads on the nine-shot gap that separated him from 36-hole leader Sam Burns — especially on a front nine that has proved a minefield for the world No 2. McIlroy played the opening stretch in NINE OVER PAR over the first two days, while shooting three under on the back nine. The front nine is the tougher half — but not that much harder. Marc Leishman and Corey Conners, in the groups just behind McIlroy, underlined that fact by both playing the first nine holes in three under yesterday, although both found it much tougher after the turn. McIlroy needed a fast start to round three to have any chance of a miracle fightback, but a bogey on the third meant he was quickly heading in the wrong direction. Another shot went at the ninth and even though he finally made his first birdie at the tenth, he gave it straight back by finding a bunker on the 11th. A rueful shrug of the shoulders was the only reaction when he missed a tiddler for par at the 14th. And another shot went with a three-putt on the 16th. The relatively easy 17th, where he demolished the tee marker 24 hours earlier, yielded a second birdie. Almost inevitably, that shot was handed back at the last, dropping the five-time Major winner to ten over. Asked what he was hoping for in his final round, McIlroy added: "Hopefully a round in under four and a half hours and get out of here."

‘I used to impersonate Hannah Montana – I can't listen to her now!': Lainey Wilson's honest playlist
The first song I fell in love with I remember my grandma playing (How Much Is That) Doggie in the Window by Patti Page when I was five years old in the back seat of the car. I could never tell if she was singing 'doggie' or 'dolly', but I loved it either way. The first record I bought My grandma used to babysit [US country singer] Tim McGraw, 15 minutes down the road from where I lived in Louisiana, so I bought his album A Place in the Sun from Walmart and my sister and I made up a dance routine. The song I do at karaoke I'll pull out some Dolly Parton, 9 to 5 or Two Doors Down, with a few drinks in me. But, at the end of the day, nobody can do it like Dolly. The song I inexplicably know all the lyrics to When I first heard I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack featuring Sons of the Desert in sixth grade, it made me feel like I could do anything. It also made me feel like I wanted to make people feel the same way. I still know it word for word. The song that changed my life My first hit single, Things a Man Oughta Know, changed my life because it introduced me to a whole crowd of new people. I was proud because it's a song about the things that my parents taught me: how you should treat people, how others should treat you, and knowing your worth and value. With every song I've written since, I feel like I've grown as a person, a songwriter, a singer and a musician. The best song to play at a party I just love the loud guitars and rock'n'roll feeling of Old Time Rock and Roll by Bob Seger. The song I can no longer listen to The Best of Both Worlds by Hannah Montana, because I used to be a Hannah Montana impersonator. It's not because I don't love the song any more, it's just that I sang it so many times, I'm never going to crank it back up. The song I secretly like There are probably some bro country songs from 2015, 2016 that my friends would've made fun of me for liking. But I feel inspired from everything.

Club World Cup opens with a whimper
Inter Miami 0 Al-Ahly 0 Goalless but, thankfully, not wholly soulless even if at times it felt as tacky as the thick Florida evening air. Gianni Infantino boasted of the 'big bang' for this Club World Cup. The first of its 64 games in just four weeks – yes, 64, so buckle up – came and went with a low-key whimper. There was dynamic pricing for the tickets but predictably there was not enough dynamic football. The Club World Cup needs Lionel Messi. A new era or a new error? But Messi did not deliver. Not this time. But neither did Inter Miami embarrass themselves, as some feared. And there will be relief in that even if that is not really what elite tournaments are meant to be about. Quite what Messi made of it all was unclear. The game's greatest-ever, the eight-time Ballon D'Or winner was last out as kick-off approached to try and maximise his impact, with the organisers insisting each player arrived on his own and walked half the length of the pitch. As he emerged Messi wore a genuinely quizzical look on his face. Bizarrely the rigmarole delayed the start by seven minutes. Who could blame him. He and Miami were shoe-horned into this competition by the onlooking Fifa president and it did not appear like a comfortable fit. The tactics from Fifa appeared to be the same as they were from Miami: Leo just be there and do something. 'Messi, Messi,' rang around. But he was quiet. Playing the full 90 minutes, which almost felt contractual, despite the 30-degree heat, the 37-year-old could not quite do it although there were shrieks when a free-kick clipped a post and struck the side-netting. Many thought he had scored. How Infantino will have wished he did. 64' DID THE BALL NOT GO INSIDE THE NET?!? Messi's freekick fools everyone 😮 Watch the @FIFACWC | June 14 - July 13 | Every Game | Free | | #FIFACWC #TakeItToTheWorld — DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 15, 2025 In injury-time, his cross was tipped onto the crossbar. Again close. In fact against Al-Ahly Messi was not even Miami's best Argentinean thirtysomething. That was 38-year-old goalkeeper Oscar Ustari who made a host of fine saves and repelled a first-half penalty from former Aston Villa forward Trezeguet. @OscarUstari the @InterMiamiCF goalie put on an absolute clinic in the opening game of the #FIFACWC - enjoy all the electric saves on repeat 🚀🚀🚀 and treat yourself to all the @FIFACWC games on 👉 — DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 15, 2025 Messi was not alone in being underwhelming but he did offer more than his creaking former Barcelona team-mates Luis Suarez and Sergio Busquets. Suarez's most noteworthy contribution was to get booked. The strange nature of it all, more akin to a pre-season friendly, was summed up by the half-time 'entertainment' with 'Team Fifa' taking on 'Team Speed' – yes, a three-man side involving and named after the American YouTuber and Cristiano Ronaldo-fanatic who now appears to be Infantino's go-to media guy, IShowSpeed. With Infantino, flanked by Ronaldo – the Brazilian one – and Roberto Baggio watching on from the stands it was a crossbar challenge. Speed, of course, and former players Sergio Aguero and Pepe – whose effort was wayward and hit a fan on the head – never came close. Only Alessandro Del Piero, for Team Fifa, succeeded in nonchalantly chipping against the goal-frame and was subjected to an in-depth, on pitch interview. 'How you feel?' he was asked. 'I feel great,' the World Cup winner said and off he went. So there you go. And, so, this is what football is in danger of being reduced to. The fans of the Egyptian champions, Al-Ahly, made an atmosphere and saved the occasion but most of them, in truth, had travelled from other parts of the United States to see Messi. Football almost as a zoo and the only noise louder than the Al-Ahly supporters was the kerching from Fifa. Even so interest has been next to none in this inflated, 32-team Infantino vanity project that was imposed upon America ahead of next year's World Cup and its opening fixture was in keeping with that. There is no real buzz. No actual anticipation. No local excitement. Not even a poster or a billboard. The weekend interest is in the ice hockey, the Stanley Cup, involving the Florida Panthers, not a competition no-one has heard of although there was a cheer when Miami's co-owner David Beckham – the newly ennobled Sir David – walked pitchside. David Beckham: "It's been an emotional week" 🤩 Inter Miami's owner cannot believe that the long wait is over 🔥 WATCH @AlAhly - @InterMiamiCF in the @FIFACWC now | June 14 - July 13 | Every Game | Free | | #FIFACWC #TakeItToTheWorld — DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 14, 2025 Sluggish ticket sales and hopeless public transport Empty seats? It had been a concern. But, in truth, most were taken even if the announcement that the attendance was 60,927 inside this 65,000-capacity arena looked like an Arsenal-style 'tickets sold' policy. Still there were not swathes of unoccupied stands, as had been feared and as are expected later in this tournament at matches that are much more difficult to sell. Mamelodi Sundowns against Fluminense back here on Wednesday, in the 3pm heat, on a working day, anyone? The bigger issue was getting in, and getting away afterwards, and given this American Football venue, the home of the Miami Dolphins, will also stage matches at next year's World Cup that must be improved. But will Fifa care? Infantino insisted on big stadiums and high-ticket prices. Eight of the 12 venues can hold at least 65,000 fans and only 12 games are being hosted in MLS-dedicated stadiums. Greed took this fixture away from Miami's 21,000-seat Chase Stadium – in fact this was the first time they have ever played here – and while we were repeatedly told that America was ready and gagging for this $1billion event it does not look like it. Transport to the stadium was and always has been a nightmare with no trains or buses coming close and Uber drivers dropping off passengers a mile away. One entrepreneurial local was charging $20 a ride in a golf buggy to cover that final mile and was doing a roaring trade. Inevitably the stadium was slow to fill. Many missed kick-off because of extra security, a second cordon away from the stadium to prevent a repeat of last summer's chaotic Copa America final when thousands of ticketless Colombians and Argentineans stormed their way into the ground. Staging the opening game here, with Miami, might have felt logical but was probably also a mistake. Miami season-ticket holders have had their chance to see Messi. Why would they pay more to watch him against a team they know nothing about? Even so stories of $4 tickets being offered to fill up the stadium were a little disingenuous given those tickets were for students at Miami Dade College, where some of the poorest go, and many of whom work as volunteers at this venue. Yes, those tickets were unsold but it felt a bit harsh. Not that Fifa or this Club World Cup is making itself easy to love. Or America, either, with controversy over whether US immigration officials are attending matches to try catch people out or are simply being drafted in as necessary added security because these are big events. Tournaments, including World Cups, often start slowly with momentum building and maybe that will happen here when the big teams face-off in the latter stages. But, right now, this still feels like a competition too far. For players, for fans and for football. If not for finance.
