How Much Are Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber Worth? Inside the Couple's Fortune After the Model's Billion-Dollar Beauty Deal
Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber, who wed in 2018, have built successful careers in the music, modeling and beauty industries The "Peaches" singer sold his 291-song catalog in December 2022 On May 28, Hailey announced that her skincare company, rhode, was acquired for $1 billionJustin Bieber and Hailey Bieber are on the rhode to the billionaire club! Since they got married in September 2018, the Canadian singer and the model-turned-entrepreneur have built an empire together. The pair, who met in November 2009 at a Today show event, welcomed their first child, son Jack Blues, in August 2024 — all while continuing to reach new heights in their respective careers. The couple had both built lucrative careers for themselves before they wed; Justin rose to fame as a teenage pop star, while Hailey, who is the daughter of Stephen and Kennya Baldwin, was a successful model. But while Justin has long been in the spotlight, Hailey made headlines on May 28 when she announced that her beauty brand, rhode, was acquired by e.l.f. Beauty for $1 billion. Following the announcement, a source told PEOPLE that the "Sorry" singer is "beyond proud," adding that he's "seen how hard she's worked from day one." From Justin's artistic career to Hailey's business pursuits, here's everything to know about what makes up Justin and Hailey Bieber's worth. Justin and Hailey's net worths have not been disclosed, though Forbes reported in September 2017 that Justin was earning $83.5 million at the time, with music as his primary source of income. However, since then, he has released two more studio albums — Changes and Justice — and made some business changes. Meanwhile, Hailey has built a lucrative career for herself as a model turned entrepreneur. The pair have both been part of a Forbes 30 Under 30 list; Hailey was recognized in 2023 for art and style, while Justin was named in 2017, per his Forbes profile. Since beginning his career, Justin has released hundreds of songs and profited from several album and tour sales. After he released his fifth studio album, Changes, in early 2020, Universal Music reported that Justin had amassed over 60 million album equivalent sales worldwide. Over the years, Justin has released six studio albums, including My World 2.0, Under the Mistletoe, Believe, Purpose, Changes and most recently, Justice, which opened with the equivalent of 154,000 sales in the United States, per The New York Times. In June 2022, he canceled the second half of the U.S. leg of his Justice World Tour after revealing his Ramsay Hunt syndrome diagnosis, which The Hollywood Reporter claimed later led Justin to be millions in debt. In response, a rep for Justin denied the allegations to PEOPLE in April 2025, saying, "This is just clickbait stupidity based on unnamed — and clearly ill-informed — 'sources,' disappointed that they no longer work with Justin." In December 2022, the "Peaches" singer sold his 291-song catalog for a reported $200 million to Hipgnosis Songs Capital, giving up the rights to his six studio albums. Most recently, a 2025 documentary titled TMZ Investigates: What Happened to Justin Bieber? claimed that he sold the collection because he was on the verge of "financial collapse." TMZ executive producer Harvey Levin claimed the Grammy winner amassed between $500 million and $1 billion through the span of his career, but ultimately had to sell his catalog because "he was broke," implying that his debts occurred from his Justice tour cancellation. A rep for Bieber had no comment when asked by PEOPLE. In 2019, Justin and his former stylist Ryan Good co-founded fashion brand Drew House, which is a nod to the pop star's middle name. However, in April 2025, he announced in a since-deleted post on his Instagram Stories that he was severing ties with the business. "I Justin Bieber am no longer involved in this brand. Drew House doesn't represent me or my family or life," he wrote. "If your [sic] rocking with me the human Justin Bieber don't waste ur money on Drew House." Since then, he has been teasing the release of a potential next fashion endeavor, SKYLRK, which appears to offer a range of apparel and accessories, including hoodies, hats and sunglasses, per his Instagram. The brand has not yet announced a release date, though it does have an official (but post-less) Instagram account. In April 2025, sources once close to Justin told PEOPLE that his former circle is "worried about him," claiming his businesses are being impacted by matters going on in his personal life. "He is facing a lot of different demons right now," the source said. "He is making some really poor decisions lately, further impacting friendships, money, and business." In 2022, Hailey launched her debut skincare brand, rhode, and announced on May 28 that it had been acquired by e.l.f. Beauty in a $1 billion deal. In an Instagram post that day, Hailey opened up about the big business decision, saying, "I am so incredibly excited and proud to announce that we are partnering with e.l.f. Beauty as we step into this next chapter in the world of rhode." She added, "I found a like-minded disruptor with a vision to be a different kind of company that believes in big ideas and innovation in the same way that I do and will help us continue to grow the brand. I feel invigorated, excited and more ready than ever." Hailey also shared that she will transition into the role of chief creative officer and head of innovation at rhode, as well as strategic advisor to e.l.f. Beauty. Per a press release, rhode was the No. 1 skincare brand in Earned Media Value in 2024, and reached $212 million in net sales in 12 months ending in March 2025. While it has not been revealed how much she earned from her modeling career, Hailey spent years on the runway before diving into entrepreneurship. Throughout her career, she modeled for major fashion houses across the globe, including Elie Saab, Off-White, Tory Burch, Zadig and Voltaire and Dolce & Gabbana, per her IMG Models profile. During a May 2022 conversation with Allure, she opened up about taking a step back from the industry after a "really bad experience with a casting director." "I don't want to feel bad about myself in this space because I feel really good about the other work that I do," she said. "So why would I even put myself in a position to feel small?" While she has shifted away from catwalks in recent years, Hailey has continued modeling for magazine covers and campaigns. Per her IMG profile, she has starred in dozens of campaigns, including for Tommy Hilfiger, L'Oréal, YSL Beauty, Victoria's Secret, Calvin Klein and Guess. Read the original article on People

‘Big Mouth' Was Courageously Filthy ‘Til the End, but About So Much More Than Sex: TV Review
SPOILER ALERT: The following piece contains spoilers for the series finale of 'Big Mouth,' now streaming on Netflix. It may surprise you to learn that 'Big Mouth,' the Netflix animated series chronicling a group of teenagers' physical and emotional maturation, concludes its eight-season run without one of its protagonists having sex. Then again, one of many lessons 'Big Mouth' imparted to its viewership — some well past the travails of puberty, some just on their cusp — is that sex is an expansive idea. With Hormone Monsters, the show's signature metaphor and comic creation, as their Virgils, the characters of 'Big Mouth' have explored everything from oral sex to erotica to enough masturbation to make the entire premise a smirking play on 'coming of age' even without more conventional congress. But in the end, all the gleeful obscenity took a backseat to the story's true subject: the terrifying process of growing up. More from Variety Nick Kroll Reveals the 'Sick Little D-' Scene in 'Big Mouth' That Netflix Asked to Be Cut: 'It's the Grossest Thing' Netflix Orders Adult Animated Comedy 'Mating Season' From 'Big Mouth' Team What's Coming to Netflix in May 2025 'Big Mouth' ultimately aired for nearly a decade, an eternity in the streaming age; in fact, the show wraps its tenure as the longest-running scripted original on Netflix, beating out 'Grace and Frankie.' And yet the creative team — comedian Nick Kroll and his childhood friend Andrew Goldberg, working with married duo Mark Levin and Jennifer Flackett — avoided the frozen quality that helps so many animated series, whose actors don't age on-screen, last for the long haul. On 'The Simpsons,' Springfield is a timeless bubble. But 'Big Mouth' is about the passage of time, and what it does to young bodies. (The theme song, Charles Bradley's 'Changes,' couldn't be more apt.) Its heroes progress and evolve, graduating middle school and moving along the proverbial bases. This dynamism makes their journey's end both more natural and more meaningful than its medium's typical stasis. Kroll and Goldberg loosely modeled the leads of 'Big Mouth,' Nick (Kroll) and Andrew (John Mulaney), after younger versions of themselves. Hormone Monsters Maury (Kroll, in one of several roles), Rick (Kroll again), Connie (Maya Rudolph) and Mona (Thandiwe Newton) are also drawn from real life, albeit indirectly. These creatures personify the uncontrollable urges and insatiable desires that come with the first stirrings of adolescence — the voice telling you to rub one out in the bathroom or, as Mona's charge Missy Foreman-Greenwald (Ayo Edebiri) does in Season 8, hump your robotics team's final project to death. The Hormone Monsters were soon joined by a full menagerie of metaphysical beings, from the Shame Wizard (David Thewlis) to the Depression Kitty (Jean Smart) to the Anxiety Mosquito (Maria Bamford). The interplay between the Monsters and their mentees nonetheless remained the core of the show; 'Human Resources,' a spinoff set entirely in the creatures' workplace, was canceled after two seasons. The thesis of 'Big Mouth' is neatly summarized by a song in its penultimate episode: 'There's no such thing as normal / We're each and all uniquely strange.' What could be treacly assurance á la 'Our Bodies, Ourselves' was instead reinforced with gleeful profanity, like when a Miss Frizzle-esque sex ed teacher voiced by Natasha Lyonne takes the class on a Magic School Bus tour of a penis. Yet the show's underlying sincerity never wavered. 'Big Mouth' was committed to destigmatizing the most shameful and embarrassing parts of getting used to a grown-up body, while still acknowledging the inherent humor. In modeling candor and acceptance, the series was also open to recognizing and correcting its own mistakes. The biracial Missy was originally voiced by Jenny Slate, who makes a cameo in the final season as a kindly pharmacist who explains you can't get pregnant from clothed dry-humping, before Edebiri took over the role in 2020, a casting change that was written into the show as a sign of Missy's increasing self-possession. For their final act of embracing adulthood, the 'Big Mouth' kids face their fears and walk into a blank, expanding void that represents the unknowable future. It's not a subtle way to illustrate the yawning abyss of infinite potential, but 'Big Mouth' never bothered with subtlety when lewdly inventive allegory would do. Over eight seasons, the now-15-year-olds have moved from reckoning with their first periods and erections to their initial attempts at healthy, communicative relationships. 'Big Mouth' leaves them, and us, with one final lesson: Once you have the confidence to embrace your own messy quirks, you're equipped to face whatever comes your way — pun somewhat intended.

Roman Kemp 'singled out' by Justin Bieber as he details awkward meeting
Roman Kemp said Justin Bieber once asked his opinion during a private listening session for his album Changes, but wasn't too impressed by the radio host's feedback Roman Kemp said he was once "singled out" by Justin Bieber during an awkward meeting with the Canadian singer. The radio host, 32, revealed details of the encounter which happened during private listening session for Justin's 2020 album, Changes. Roman said Justin invited him on stage to give feedback on the album in front of music industry executives - but their exchange quickly took an awkward turn. Roman said on the latest episode of his BBC Sounds podcast You About?, co-hosted with singer Tom Grennan: "He singled me out. He said I've got to come up on stage. He plays these tunes to all these label execs, looks at me and goes, 'What do you think of that one?'" Sharing his opinion, Roman said: "It's alright." But Justin didn't seem too impressed, according to the former Capital Breakfast host, as the singer replied: "Roman said it's alright? Alright?" He said he then felt the need to share more details and told Justin: "Well, yeah. It's not your best, not your worst." He added: "My words were, 'It's decent' - but I don't think he appreciated it." Roman still follows Justin on Instagram, but the singer doesn't follow him back. Back in 2021, Roman said he would often go out to party with Justin when they were younger - but admitted he is now a changed man. Chatting to The Sun, Roman revealed Justin invited him along to dinner before a party around the time he released his Purpose album. "Without a doubt, he was the wildest. He's grown into a very different young man now. He's a lot more serious and focused," Roman told the publication. "But around his Purpose album (in 2015) when he was in London, I have never seen anything like that in my life - and I thought I'd seen a lot. It went on for three weeks, every single night." Roman added that the partying "just kept going" and he reflected on the attention he received while in the presence of Justin. "I think I was 24, he'd just turned 21 and I remember standing on a sofa in a nightclub looking up and every girl in that room was trying to get my eye to say, 'You can come on to this table.' It's different world." He added: "We'd go for dinner, then leaving he didn't call for the bill. He was like, 'Oh, they sort it.' It's unbelievable, on a different level." Earlier this year, Roman opened up about feeling the "pressure" of a family trait, admitting there are times he feels like he doesn't "care". In a March recent instalment of their podcast, FFS! My dad Is Martin Kemp, Roman confessed to being "stressed" this week and often wanting to "turn everything off". This led him to question his dad, Martin, about the idea of retiring, only to learn that Martin couldn't imagine stopping. The conversation took a turn when Roman pinpointed the source of the pressure: "You." To which a surprised Martin responded, "From me? Why me? You've got a great work ethic. Is work that another way of saying you work your b***s off?". Roman clarified his view on what constitutes a good work ethic: "Good work ethic isn't you working your b******s off. It's about a balance between work and life split whilst maintaining drive." He then delved into his personal struggle: "Can you maintain drive and ambition alongside being true to yourself and understanding who you are? I struggle with that massively because I I just run myself into a moment where I'm like, 'I don't care anymore. I don't care. Like, sack it all off'."

Watch: Joey Bada$$ Stops By ‘Sound Check With Jeremy Hecht' To Choose Between New York Legends Jay-Z & Nas
Source: Courtesy / UPROXX Studios The fire guests just keep on coming! This week, Brooklyn rapper and actor Joey Bada$$ joins host Jeremy Hecht for UPROXX's Sound Check, a new weekly interview series revealing your favorite artist's musical taste. Each high-stakes, 12-round episode features a carefully curated playlist of impossible choices, unearthing some never-before-heard stories and creative influences. This episode was recorded about an hour before Joey went into the booth and recorded his game-shaking verse during the Red Bull Spiral cypher with Ab-Soul and Big Sean at the Red Bull studios. Everyone in the hip hop community is aware of the current East coast vs. West coast battle that Joey just so happens to be in the middle of. With that being the case, it only make sense that he was forced to choose between songs from two of his favorite artists of all time – 'Changes' by Tupac ft. Talent and 'Sky's The Limit' by The Notorious B.I.G. ft. 112. Joey chose the Pac classic and said. 'I think the Tupac 'Changes' one is definitely like, that's probably number one…that's a generational classic…That joint it just do something to you…I probably listen to 'Sky's The Limit' more though, but I gotta give it to 'Changes'.' As a New York native, being a fan of both Jay-Z and Nas is almost embedded in you. Later in the episode, Joey had to pick which track he preferred from two of his favorite albums of all time – 'Dead Presidents II' by Jay-Z and 'World Is Yours' by Nas. The 30 year-old decided on the former: 'Out of the two songs that you play for me, I got to go 'Dead Presidents'…as much as I love Ilmatic, 'World is Yours' is not my favorite joint on there, you know what I'm saying. Like if you played 'It Ain't Hard to Tell' then it would have been a different conversation you know what I mean but…it's funny that 'Dead President' is not my favorite song on Reasonable Doubt either…'Friend or Foe' is probably my favorite.' In the final round, Hecht flips the script and turns the tables on himself by attempting to guess the track Joey says represents his entire life. Given two options—'Bag Lady' by Erykah Badu and 'Something About Us' by Daft Punk—Hecht correctly guessed 'Something About Us'. When asked about his song selection, Joey answers, 'That's my favorite song of all time…I can't even remember when I found that song um, that's on their Discovery album and uh I don't know bro it's just like it's so funky but it got like a hip-hop kind of R&B element to it, and then it's like when the words come it's like the perfect words bro…like me and my daughter listen to that song, it's one of her favorite songs now too.' Check out the entertaining full episode featuring Joey Bada$$ below! Stay tuned as many more guests are scheduled to visit the show in the coming weeks. Fans can catch new episodes of 'Sound Check with Jeremy Hecht' Wednesdays on UPROXX's YouTube channel and social platforms.
