Justin Bieber and Scooter Braun Allegedly Hit ‘Breaking Point' After $8M ‘Justice Tour' Debt: Doc
Justin Bieber and former music manager Scooter Braun's once-tight bond allegedly hit a 'breaking point' after the singer's shortened Justice World Tour. Bieber, 31, performed a handful of concerts in 2022 before abruptly canceling the remaining dates for medical reasons. He was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome that same year. 'Scooter's camp has told us that he just thinks Justin wanted to go home,' TMZ executive producer Don Nash claimed in the network's TMZ Investigates: What Happened to Justin Bieber? documentary that aired on Fox and is currently streaming on Hulu. 'He was tired, he wanted to spend more time with [his wife], Hailey [Bieber], he wanted to go on vacation, and he wanted to live his life without going on tour.' Sources close to Justin, however, told the outlet that the singer was 'set up for failure' from the start of the production. The TMZ team also alleged that tour promoter AEG paid Justin a $40 million advance to perform his biggest hits. (Neither Justin nor Braun, 43, has addressed the documentary's claims or spoken publicly about why they parted ways. Us Weekly has reached out for comment.) Scooter Braun's Ups and Downs Over the Years: Taylor Swift Feud, Divorce, Client Drama and More 'When Justin cancels the tour, AEG says, 'Hey, you owe us $24 million,'' Harvey Levin said in the doc. 'Justin's like, 'I don't have the money.' And so, Scooter's company, HYBE, they say, 'Look, we'll assume this debt and pay it off for you, Justin.'' Levin further claimed that Justin 'signed a note,' agreeing to repay Braun $24 million over a 10-year period. 'He makes one payment, and this is where the conflict starts,' Levin said. 'We're told from Scooter's side that Justin's people called and said, 'He doesn't have the money anymore,' and he's never paid another payment.' Levin also alleged that Justin's business manager 'did some digging' and found that Braun was 'way overpaying commissions.' Braun then ordered an internal audit of HYBE, which reportedly discovered that the 'Peaches' singer actually owes Braun $1 million. When Justin rebuffed the claims, Braun hired external firm Price Waterhouse to complete its own audit that revealed Justin owed $8 million. Justin Bieber's Team Calls Out 'Unnecessary' Report Alleging He's Millions of Dollars in Debt TMZ claimed that Justin wasn't pleased with the external audit and subsequently conducted his own investigation. The findings have not been publicly shared. 'By the way, if Justin had finished that tour, he would have made $90 million,' Nash added in the doc. Braun was the manager credited with discovering Justin on YouTube back in the early 2000s. Us Weekly confirmed in August 2023 that Justin 'officially let [Braun] go.' According to the insider, Hailey, 28, "led the charge that led Justin to leave him for another manager.' A second source, meanwhile, told Us that same month that Justin and Braun didn't have any 'bad blood.' 'Scooter created Justin for who he is. It's just a time and place to move on,' the second insider said at the time. 'Scooter used to be hands-on. He was doing [everything] behind the scenes for all his clients. He's lost sight of the drive. It was noticeable.' TMZ Investigates: What Happened to Justin Bieber? is currently streaming on Hulu.

Hailey Bieber is seen dripping wet in a string bikini after telling husband Justin she will 'love you forever'
Hailey Bieber was seen in a sexy new video clip posted to Instagram on Tuesday. The 28-year-old supermodel wore nothing but a tiny leopard-print string bikini while emerging from a cold plunge. The diva from Phoenix was in the backyard of her Palm Springs, California rental. And the cover girl was doing another model a favor: Hailey was posing for her pal Candice Swanepoel, who owns Tropic Of C. Hailey and Candice worked together on a Rhode and Tropic Of C collaboration last year and have stayed fast friends. Swanepoel, 36, is a South African model who was discovered as a teenager at a flea market. In 2010, she became a Victoria's Secret Angel and in 2016, Forbes ranked her 8th on their top-earning models list. This comes after Hailey shared a message for husband Justin Bieber, 31, as she said she loved him. She shared a small cartoon drawing featuring a red 'loving you forever' button and a second frame with a cute green creature pressing it, with 'me' written on it. The crooner had just posted a long confessional on Instagram Friday, admitting his 'selfishness' and other flaws, asking for God's help. The couple have been plagued with rumors about problems in their marriage since 2023, when Hailey's father, Stephen Baldwin, 58, reposted a call for prayers for the couple. Bieber, who was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in June 2022, stepped away from the public life for a while, but seems to be returning to music, if recent photos from his trip to Iceland posted on social media are any indication. The hitmaker can be seen singing or talking into a microphone on the getaway with a group of male friends. Both Hailey and Justin identify as Christian, but the That Power singer's adherence to the teachings of Pastor Judah Smith of the Seattle-based Churchome, have caused some to wonder if he has been indoctrinated into a cult. Although the couple married in a quickie courthouse ceremony in September 2018, Smith officiated at their more lavish wedding for family and friends a year later in South Carolina. This comes after Hailey shared a message for husband Justin Bieber, 31, as she said she loved him Smith also baptized the pair in 2020 and has also offered marriage counseling. He also officiated a vow renewal between the couple in 2024. Photos from the event also served as an announcement the couple were expecting their first child. Jack Blues Bieber was born in August. In an Instagram video posted on May 2, Smith recounted an encounter he said he had with members of the paparazzi, asking him directly if the church was part of a cult. 'If we're a cult, we are the worst cult in the history of all cults," Smith said sarcastically. 'We meet once a month, guys. I stopped doing this every Wednesday,' adding, 'We've got to get better at this.' Followers such as Taylor Lautner and Jason Kennedy voiced their support for the religious leader. The congregation also holds worship services every Sunday at the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills. Members can also stream the service live over YouTube or via the Churchome app. The church was sued in 2023 by an employee who claimed she and others were required to pay 10-percent of their salary back to the church as tithing, or risk being disciplined or fired.
