Hailey Bieber defends Justin Bieber as Swag album announcement shuts down divorce and mental health rumors

Express Tribune11-07-2025
Justin Bieber has officially returned to the music scene with a new album titled Swag, released on July 12. This marks the Canadian singer's first full-length project in four years, following reports that he resolved financial disputes with former manager Scooter Braun.
After months of speculation and cryptic social media posts, Bieber confirmed the news on July 11. Fans had already begun noticing Swag-themed billboards in Reykjavík, Iceland—where he had recently vacationed with wife Hailey Bieber and their newborn son, Jack Blues Bieber. Shortly after, a massive billboard in New York's Times Square revealed the album's full tracklist.
Swag features collaborations with Cash Cobain, Sexyy Red, and Gunna. Bieber had previously teased the project by sharing behind-the-scenes clips of recording sessions with producers Carter Lang, DJ Tay James, and Eddie Benjamin.
To mark the moment, Hailey Bieber shared a family photo and directly addressed ongoing online speculation surrounding her husband. Referencing one of Justin's viral memes, she wrote: 'Is it finally clocking to you fucking losers?' The post, widely interpreted as a clapback at critics of Justin's mental health and their relationship, quickly gained support from fans.
While her language was bold, many praised Hailey's unapologetic stance and show of solidarity. The post also followed her recent move to shut down divorce rumors by posting a mirror selfie featuring her wedding ring.

Why Shawn Mendes is hiding out in a tiny English village before his world tour begins

Shawn Mendes has taken a surprising turn ahead of his global tour, quietly moving into the quiet Cotswolds village of Great Tew. With a population of just 200, the singer appears to have traded red carpets and paparazzi for countryside cafés and historic pubs. Locals in the Oxfordshire village, already home to British celebrities like David Beckham and Simon Cowell, have spotted the Canadian pop star around town. According to one resident, Mendes has rented a modest home to enjoy some solitude before his international dates begin. 'No one ever asks for selfies, so he must love being left alone,' the source noted, adding that he was recently scolded for placing a café order just before the kitchen closed. Mendes's most recent album, Shawn, was released in late 2024 and marked a deeply introspective phase in his career. Describing the record at the time, he said, 'It helped me reconnect with myself, allowing me to work through emotions, find clarity and feel stronger.' His decision to base himself in Great Tew fits that narrative, with its peaceful countryside and sense of anonymity offering a welcome contrast to the limelight. He has since jetted off to Budapest for the opening night of his tour, which will include stops in Denmark, Austria, Germany, and London's O2 Arena before heading to the United States. The tour promises an evolved sound and a renewed sense of purpose. Fans have taken to social media to share sightings and speculate on how the English countryside is influencing the singer's next creative phase. So far, Mendes seems content keeping a low profile in one of the UK's most exclusive but peaceful celeb hideouts.

Orlando Bloom responds with humour to a spoof linking him to Angela Merkel amid Katy Perry and Trudeau buzz.

Orlando Bloom has reacted with humour to a viral satirical post following his ex-fiancée Katy Perry's public outing with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. As rumours swirl about a possible relationship between Perry and Trudeau, Bloom found himself the subject of parody after a comedic news post linked him to former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The satirical post from The Onion joked: 'Just weeks after announcing his split with fiancée Katy Perry, English actor Orlando Bloom was photographed Friday dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Angela kept Orlando laughing all night — he couldn't keep his eyes off her!' The fictional scene described the pair enjoying oysters, wine, and chocolate cake at a Michelin-starred restaurant. In response, Bloom commented on the post with a series of clapping hands emojis, showing amusement at the unexpected pairing and public reaction. The playful comment came shortly after Perry and Trudeau were seen dining together in Montreal on July 28, 2025. According to reports, they visited several locations, including Mount Royal Park, Le Violon, and Taverne Atlantic Terrace. Their public appearance continued the next day when Trudeau attended Perry's concert with his daughter Ella-Grace, visibly enjoying the show from the front row. While sources claimed the pair are 'just friends,' the sightings sparked widespread speculation online. Perry and Bloom ended their relationship in July 2025 after years of an on-and-off romance that began in 2016. They share a daughter, Daisy, and have publicly committed to co-parenting following their split.
