Justin Bieber drops scenic ‘First Place' music video
The video captures the pop star in an intimate recording session inside a secluded cabin, surrounded by a small group of collaborators. Between takes, Bieber is seen enjoying the natural beauty around him, walking along lakes, sitting quietly on a rooftop to admire the view, and snowboarding across the Icelandic landscape.
One memorable moment sees Bieber strip down to his white boxer briefs for a nighttime swim, visibly shivering as he emerges from the cold water. With his trademark sense of humour, he addressed the scene in the video's YouTube caption, telling fans to 'FORGIVE MY CHICKEN LEGS'.
'First Place' reflects on the highs and lows of a relationship, with lyrics about returning to familiar places despite ups and downs. The track appears on Bieber's latest album Swag, his first since 2021's Justice. Produced alongside Carter Lang, Dylan Wiggins, Daniel Caesar, Dijon, mk.gee, Daniel Chetrit, Eddie Benjamin, Knox Fortune, and more, the record fuses personal themes with an eclectic mix of guest appearances.
The album features collaborations with Gunna, Dijon, Lil B, Sexyy Red, Cash Cobain, Eddie Benjamin, and comedian Druski. Inspired by Bieber's life as a husband and father, Swag debuted at number two on the Billboard 200, reaffirming his status as one of pop's most consistent chart performers.
'First Place' follows earlier singles 'Daises' and 'Yukon', and the video's warm reception online shows that Bieber's combination of vulnerability and artistry continues to resonate with fans.

Chappell Roan caught in Troye Sivan and Connor Franta social media drama sparking fan reactions
Chappell Roan unexpectedly found herself at the center of renewed attention this week when Troye Sivan and Connor Franta exchanged subtly charged Instagram posts referencing an old photo. Troye initiated the moment by sharing a throwback image featuring himself and Chappell Roan, notably cropping Connor Franta out. He later clarified in a cheeky comment, 'FYI I found that pic online doing my weekly Google of 'Troye Sivan and Chappell Roan', not my crop!" Not to be outdone, Connor responded in kind, posting his own version of the image with the caption 'my good side', a pointed nod to Troye's emotionally charged 2018 song 'The Good Side', which many fans believe references their past relationship. Fan reaction intensified when Connor, during a 2024 appearance on the Obsessed with Brooke Averick podcast, revealed that the two discovered Chappell Roan's music together in 2014 — a detail that reignited longstanding 'Tronnor' shipping rumors and underscored Roan's presence in the early YouTube community. Amid this playful digital back-and-forth, both Troye and Connor encouraged their audiences to check out Chappell Roan, praising her talent. Troye called her 'vocally blessed,' likening her voice to Adele's, while Connor added, 'Give that vocally blessed goddess her well-deserved promo.'
