Justin Bieber Explodes On Paparazzi In Expletive-Laced Rant While 'Demanding Respect'
Pop superstar Justin Bieber has had enough of being followed by paparazzi. The singer erupted in a fiery, profanity-laced confrontation with paparazzi this week, making it clear that he is setting firm boundaries. He also accused the shutterbugs of always provoking him and labeled their harassment as "heart-aching." Justin Bieber has been in the news lately due to his online behavior, which has raised concerns about his well-being. For months, Justin Bieber has raised concerns among fans about his well-being after displaying a number of behaviors many deemed erratic. On Thursday night, the singer seemingly further fueled this narrative while dropping multiple F-bombs at the paparazzi that accosted him as he was leaving Soho House Malibu in California, per Page Six. It began with the paparazzi peppering him with a number of questions, including asking "how it was going." A very displeased Bieber then replied, "Not me today bro," before shouting out, "How do you think it's going with you in my f-cking face? Get out of my f-cking face!" The livid response from the singer seemingly only further empowered the shutterbugs to go at him with more questions, which caused the "Mistletoe" crooner to reply with a curt response that referenced his family, wife Hailey Bieber, and 9-month-old son Jack Blues. "I'm a real man with a real family," he told them. "And you're really in front of my face." Amid the back and forth with the paparazzi, Bieber told them that he is "not to be f‐cked with by any" of them as he wanted to "set boundaries." He also stated that since he isn't "buddies" with them, they don't get to ask him questions. The father of one then doubled down on his stance when one of the photographers wished him a happy early Father's Day. "I don't know you. You don't go to people you don't know and say sh-t out of nowhere with a camera in their face," Bieber told the individual. Adding to his remark, the singer explained that the paparazzi had no right to accost him regardless of his celebrity status. "It doesn't matter if I'm a celebrity or not. It doesn't matter if I'm a public figure," Bieber lashed out. Further down the 11-minute rant, Bieber seemed to get even angrier as the paparazzi continued to press him. "I'm at my wits' f–king end is what I am at," he said. "I'm demanding respect. You confuse my anger with disrespect. It's anger because you're disrespecting me. You don't get to disrespect me and get away with it." He then accused them of intending to use the videos they recorded of him "out of context" to push a narrative that he has "lost his mind." And when it appeared that the paparazzi remained unrelenting, Bieber lashed out at them about provoking him. "You provoke, you provoke, you provoke," Bieber said. "You think this is a game." "I don't know who the f-cks paying you to provoke me, but I'm not the f-cking one," he later added. "OK? Stop provoking me and sh-t … I'm not to be f-cked with." He also labeled their actions as "heart-aching" and asked them to leave him the "f-ck alone." Bieber's latest exchange with paparazzi comes after he went live on Instagram in April to call out photographers he claimed were dangerously tailing him on the road. He was seen shouting out of his car window at a police officer, accusing the paparazzi of driving recklessly. Though the "Yummy" singer briefly lowered his phone, causing the video to cut out visually, his voice remained clear as he vented, saying, "This is getting crazy, man, no joke." However, it looks like authorities took action as sirens blared in the background, prompting a relieved reaction from Bieber. "There we go, there we go," he said. "Some justice for this sh-t. I hope they lock his b-tch a-s up too." Prior to his outburst at the paparazzi, Bieber had also been in other weird situations, including going on bizarre rants on social media and looking unhealthy while outdoors. His actions have raised concerns among fans with respect to his mental health and well-being. While neither Bieber nor his wife, Hailey, has publicly confirmed that such is the case, experts have claimed that the singer can be placed under conservatorship by his loved ones if his erratic behavior persists. "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," said legal expert Jamie Wright in an interview with the The U.S. Sun. However, according to Wright, Bieber's loved ones making such a move will require them to prove in court that the singer 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."

Willie Geist on the Moment it Hit Him That Daughter Lucie is Leaving for College
Family life is about to change for Sunday TODAY host Willie Geist: his oldest child, Lucie, will be leaving for college late this summer. 'We just had a high school graduation a few days ago for Lucie Geist,' Willie told TODAY anchors (and dads!) Craig Melvin, Al Roker, Carson Daly and Peter Alexander at a TODAY Father's Day celebration. 'All the best stuff is still coming,' Willie said. At the same time, he isn't sure what life will be like when Lucie moves away. Willie, his wife, Christina, and their 15-year-old son, George, will have to figure out how to recalibrate living in their home as a family of three most of the time. 'We feel like we've done the best we can. She's a great kid, and so we're thrilled for her,' Willie said. 'But we're a family of four. Somebody's taken a tire off the car and you've got to figure out how to drive the car on three wheels, you know?' Peter Alexander reminded Willie of how wonderful it can be to begin a whole new phase of your parental relationship with the younger child. 'I don't know how he feels about that, but we're excited about it,' Willie joked about George. Willie and Christina have been struggling with the fact that Lucie is not going to be living nearby — she's moving several hours away. For now, the couple can track Lucie's whereabouts on an app, but they plan to sign off while she's at school, noting that seeing her location at all times might be more troubling than reassuring. 'Look,' said Al Roker. 'I think it's one of those things where at a certain point you've got to give it up to God, you know? You've done what you can. And you're just there to catch them.' Willie also spoke about Lucie's milestone when he co-hosted TODAY With Jenna & Friends on June 10. 'As any parent who has been through this — or maybe you're going through it right now — knows, the excitement at times becomes terror,' he shared. 'The graduation week, there are parties and things at school. You're kind of busy ... and then all of the sudden you're sitting there and you're looking up at that stage and go, 'Oh, that's her! That's Lucie. That's my daughter walking across and shaking the hand of the principal and getting the diploma,'' Willie told Jenna. 'She was on stage speaking, which was an amazing thrill, and I think that's when it really hit me and Christina,' he added. 'All of a sudden, she's ready to go,' he said. 'And you hope you've instilled in her all the values and the habits and the things she'll need to go out in the world.' This article was originally published on

TODAY Dads on Working Dad Guilt and How They Make Family a Priority
The TODAY dads had an early Father's Day celebration with a heartfelt chat, some craft cocktails ... and even some friendly competition in New York City's Central Park. After Craig Melvin, Al Roker, Carson Daly, Willie Geist and Peter Alexander raced rowboats near Bethesda Fountain, they relaxed at the Central Park Boathouse, exchanged a few dad jokes and talked about fatherhood. Many of the anchors spoke about how becoming a father impacted their travel schedule for work. 'When the kids were younger, I was traveling a lot more than I do now. And this guy gave me some solid advice a few years ago,' Craig said, gesturing to Carson. 'You have to travel last minute and you miss some stuff, and you start feeling guilty about it. And Carson was like, 'It's not about quantity, it's about quality.' Make the time that you're there memorable,' Craig said. Together with his wife, Lindsay Czarniak, he is raising son Delano, 11, and daughter Sybil, 8. When Peter gets a call to travel somewhere on a Friday, all he can think about is wanting to be at home on the weekends with his family: wife Alison Starling, 11-year-old Ava and 10-year-old Emma. 'We're going to barbecue something, we're going to put on some Morgan Wallen. I have FOMO. I don't want to miss out on that,' he said. 'So I'm going to fly in the morning and fly back that night.' Before Willie had kids, he used to extend work travel to visit friends. 'The minute Lucie was born — so 18 years ago — it was like there was this homing beacon placed right in your chest,' he said. 'And the minute you were done with the interview or whatever it was, it was like, 'I got to get to the airport.'' The pull was even stronger once they added son George to the family, he shared. 'Well, we also do it because we can do it,' said Carson, who, along with wife Siri Daly, is raising four kids: son Jackson and daughters Etta, London and Goldie. Carson turned to Al and added, 'Your dad was a bus driver. He couldn't just take off.' 'My dad was just constantly working,' said Al. 'I remember a couple of times he would call us in and he says, 'Listen, Dad's got a chance to do some overtime. You're not going to see me tonight.' And he would sleep at the depot.' On the other hand, Al said that one of his fondest memories was when his dad would let Al ride the bus for eight hours while he drove. 'It was long before Take Your Kids to Work Day,' he joked. 'I used to hold it against my dad for a long time because he worked third shift as a mail clerk,' said Craig. 'It's not until you get older and you have your own children, and you have to work to provide for them that you understand the sacrifice, you know? But back then it was like, 'Oh, Dad's not at my Little League game.'' Each of the TODAY dads plans to spend this Father's Day in a slightly different way. Al, who is a father of three to Courtney, Leila and Nick and grandfather to Sky, Courtney's daughter, plans to spend the day at the grill while upstate with his family. 'It's funny,' said Al. 'Deborah (my wife) keeps saying, 'Why are you cooking?' I said, 'Because this is my happy place. I love to do this.'' 'God was smart. God put one of the four golf majors on Father's Day weekend,' Carson joked. 'So our United States Open will be on. I watched it with my father, and I will force my children to watch it with me. We'll have a fire burning in the fireplace, there'll be a cold beer involved. Definitely some barbecuing.' Willie shares that his Father's Day plans are 'up to the kids. So I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that I'm lucky enough to have my father about 30 minutes away. I'll get to be with my kids and then we can all get in the car and go be with my dad. So that is a blessing.' For many dads, Father's Day is a day to 'peace out and go play golf, disappear till dinner,' Peter said. 'In our house, it's the opposite. Everybody's here. We're all together. I don't care what the plan is, we can do anything you like, we're just going to do it together.' 'As I get older, my favorite pastime is doing absolutely nothing,' said Craig. 'So I have asked my family to allow me to do absolutely nothing.' 'Or you just play (golf) really early,' joked Carson. 'I can be home by 9.' 'Wow. Now I guess we know what you're doing!' joked Al.
