Lewis Capaldi Says That Justin Bieber Left Him on Read After They Met: 'If You're Out There Bieber, Text Me Back!'
Capaldi marked his return to music with June's "Survive" after a self-imposed hiatus NEED TO KNOW Lewis Capaldi recalled meeting Justin Bieber at a party a while back — and said he was shocked he knew his name After they hit it off, Capaldi sent him a text and revealed that Bieber never texted him back Capaldi made his return to the stage in at Glastonbury Festival in June After a friendly encounter at a party, Lewis Capaldi was left with Justin Bieber's "Ghost." In an interview with Capital FM's Chris Stark on Friday, Aug. 15, the 28-year-old "Someone You Loved" performer recalled meeting the Swag singer at a party in Los Angeles. At the time, Capaldi was convinced Bieber, 31, had no idea who he was. "Bieber comes over to me and he's like, 'Hey man, what's going on?' And I'm like, 'You don't know who I am, you don't know my name?'" Capaldi recalled. He continued, "And he's like, 'Of course I do — it's Lewis Capaldi' and me and Bieber have this super night, this really lovely evening together... we hang out and I'm like, 'Me and the Biebs are going to be best pals; this is huge.'" Capaldi was even more shocked when Bieber said to "make sure I get your number tomorrow." Keeping his word, Capaldi sent him a nice message. He sent Bieber, "'Just wanted to jump on bro and say last night was so special, great guy, so nice to hang with you, such a dude,' all this stuff." Then, per Capaldi, the "YUKON" singer liked the message but never texted back. 'So if you're out there Bieber, text me back," he concluded. In June, Capaldi returned for a surprise set at Glastonbury Festival, two years after he struggled to finish his set at the U.K. festival. The day prior, Capaldi released a new single, "Survive," and ended a two-year, self-imposed hiatus from music, which he entered to care for his mental and physical health. In July, Capaldi appeared on an episode of Theo Von's This Past Weekend podcast and further opened up about his Glastonbury set in 2023. "When it happened and when it was happening, it was like the lowest moment of my life, and it was horrible," he recalled. "I had this moment where I was onstage like two, three songs in, I was like, 'This is the last time I'm going to play a gig for a long time,'" he continued. "I need to try and get through the rest of the show, but when I come off, I'm done." After he came offstage, he realized that the moment was "probably the best thing that ever happened to me" because he "wouldn't have stopped otherwise." Weeks before the Glastonbury set, Capaldi had a similar episode in Chicago where he found himself "backstage convulsing and having this crazy panic attack." He spent the next two years working on his mental health and focused on therapy, trying to reduce stressors and getting himself into a "much better headspace." "I had no choice but to confront things," he said, Read the original article on People

Lewis Capaldi Recalls Terrifying ‘Mental Episode' That Left Him ‘Convulsing' Backstage Mid-Concert
Lewis Capaldi has come a long way since he started working on his mental health a couple of years ago, with the Scottish singer-songwriter revealing that he once had a 'mental episode' that left him 'convulsing' backstage at a show. While guesting on the Tuesday (July 15) episode of Theo Von's This Past Weekend podcast, Capaldi reflected on the tough moments in his career that forced him to confront the fact that he needed help. The musician made headlines in 2023 when he struggled to get through his Glastonbury set that year, but shortly before that happened, he says he had an incident at a concert in Chicago that was 'even worse.'

'I was like, backstage, convulsing and having this crazy panic attack, mental episode. It was really, really bad. It was the first time people at my shows had seen it.' The musician has been open about dealing with mental health issues as well as Tourette's, a disorder that causes difficult-to-control movements and sounds known as tics. In April 2023, Capaldi revealed that his struggles with Tourette's were becoming so severe, he was considering stepping back from music. After his onstage breakdown at Glastonbury two months later, Capaldi did just that. Immediately after stepping off stage at the festival — where fans had helped him get through his set by loudly singing the words for him — the artist knew it would be his last show until he got some help, he told Von. 'When it happened and when it was happening, it was, like, the lowest moment of my life, and it was horrible,' he recalled on the podcast of Glastonbury 2023. 'I had this moment where I was on stage like two, three songs in. I was like, 'This is the last time I'm going to play a gig for a long time. I need to try and get through the rest of the show, but when I come off, I'm done.'' Capaldi is now back and better than ever before after spending the past two years reconnecting with himself, with the star telling Von that therapy and exercise have helped him immensely. This past June, he made a triumphant return to Glastonbury with a surprise set, shortly after which he announced that he'd be donating 734,000 hours of free virtual therapy with BetterHelp inspired by his own mental health journey. While speaking to Von, he gushed that this year's Glastonbury performance was a 'bit of a comeback moment.' 'It was lovely,' he added. 'It was a really special moment.'

Lewis Capaldi Met Justin Bieber at a Party and Totally Thought They Were Pals Until He Texted Him the Next Day: ‘Bieber Aired Me'
Lewis Capaldi has met plenty of famous people over the years and become friendly with a few of them. But in a chat with Capital Breakfast's Chris Stark on Friday (Aug. 15), the 'Someone You Loved' singer revealed that when he met Justin Bieber at a 'swanky' Los Angeles party thrown by Kylie Jenner (he thinks) a while back he was pretty sure the JB had no idea who he was. 'And Bieber comes over to me and he's like, 'Hey man what's going on?' And I'm like 'you don't know who I am, 'you don't know my name,'' Capaldi recalled telling him. 'And he's like, 'of course I do it's Lewis Capaldi' and me and Bieber have this super night, this really lovely evening together — we didn't spend the night together, but we hang out — and me and the Biebs are going to be best pals, this is huge.'

So, Capaldi dutifully texted Bieber a 'sucking up his a–' message the next day: ''just wanted to jump on Bro, and say last night was so special, great guy, so nice to hang with you, such a dude' all this stuff,' he revealed. Here's the thing. According to Capaldi, Bieber liked the message, but then never replied. 'So if you're out there Bieber, text me back!,' Capaldi said, admitting, 'Bieber aired me.' Capaldi also uncovered the true story behind the legendary 'lost' song he recorded with Calvin Harris several years ago that has never been released. While Harris had hinted in interviews that it may have gotten accidentally erased from Capaldi's hard drive, Lewis said the real story is pretty simple: he didn't like how he sounded. 'Me and Calvin have done a song together, he was in Ibiza the same time as me. I went and recorded a version of it,' Capaldi said of the unnamed track. 'He sent it to me afterwards. I avoid any conflict, avoid letting people down, I'm a people pleaser. I try and please people… This is the thing, I don't like the song. I don't like my version of the song, I should say.' Capaldi said he shared the track with some friends and they agreed with his assessment, but Lewis never reached out to Harris to tell him his feelings about the song. 'He then messages me two months later like, 'hate it?' And I grew up idolizing Calvin Harris, and to tell him I don't like his song so I just ignored that as well,' Capaldi said. 'And to this day haven't replied to him, I have seen him since, and I'd love to do a Calvin Harris song, but he has to sing on it as well.'
