Justin Bieber sparks fresh concern over wellbeing with ‘clean man' post

Justin Bieber has sparked fresh concern over his wellbeing after reposting a clip rejecting the idea of living life as a 'clean man'. The 31-year-old pop star shared the video to his Instagram Stories amid ongoing speculation about his alleged drug use, with the footage featuring a moment from rapper DMX's 2013 appearance on the US talk show Iyanla, Fix My Life, in which the late performer — whose real name was Earl Simmons — dismissed the idea of complete sobriety. In the clip, host Iyanla Vanzant, 71, asks DMX if he wants to 'live his life as a clean man'. DMX responds: 'When you say clean – no weed? No drinking? Nothing?' Vanzant replies: 'Nothing. You need to be a clear, pure vessel for the voice of God.' The rapper answers: 'I think I'm exactly where I need to be with God.' DMX died in April 2021 at the age of 50 after suffering a cocaine-induced heart attack. The video, originally broadcast more than a decade ago, has resurfaced after being reshared by Justin without comment – a move that has drawn criticism and concern from fans. The repost comes as speculation continues to swirl online about Justin's own alleged drug use, with some social media users noting his increasingly erratic public appearances and behaviour. In February, a representative for Justin denied what they described as 'harmful' allegations about the singer, telling TMZ: 'Despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.' The spokesperson added Justin had been in a 'good place' with his wife, Hailey Bieber, 27, following the birth of their son, Jack Blues, in August 2024. They also said 2024 had been 'very transformative' for the singer, explaining he had ended 'several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him'. Despite the reassurances, Justin has continued to share photos of himself smoking – including while snowboarding and at Coachella - and recently posted sweat-drenched selfies that he captioned as part of a detox, though without further explanation. Fans took to Instagram to comment on the latest post, with one writing: 'Stay healthy and happy,' while another added: 'Keep pushing.'

'So appreciated': Why fans are praising Karl Stefanovic for his bizarre dance floor act with Bob Katter

Karl Stefanovic has been spotted busting a move with Bob Katter in a hilarious dance floor act at a charity gala. The Today host, 50, took to Instagram on Monday to share a clip of himself exuberantly dancing beside the Independent MP at the black tie event for Liam's Life Saving List and appeared to mock Mr Katter's moves. Liam's Life Saving List aims to raise awareness about blood stem cell donation for North Queensland father-of-two Liam O'Brien, who died in June 2024 following a two-year battle against a rare form of leukemia. In the clip, Stefanovic and Mr Katter, who was Liam's uncle, boogied without a care, while other guests watched the pair in amusement. The independent MP for the north Queensland seat of Kennedy punched into the air in what the Today host called "Bob's famous upper cut dance". Stefanovic then hilariously pouted while pointing with both hands, even dropping low at one point and gyrating his hips from side to side. "Raising a lot of money for Liam's Lifesaving List gala was extraordinary," the TV personality wrote in the caption. "Liam would be so proud. You are making a difference." Fans flocked to the comments to champion Karl's fun-loving personality, with one person writing: "Love you Karl, you are such a larrikin". "Looks fabulous. Good on you guys," another person wrote. "Gold! Good on you both," a third person said. Another fan wrote: "You did a cracking job, Karlos!", while one more added: "Sensational, Karl. Your charity work is sooo appreciated". Karl and Mr Katter have enjoyed a friendship for more than a decade, with the Today host describing the firebrand politician as "massively nutty" in a 60 Minutes clip in 2013 while Stefanovic was a reporter for the show. "The guy is a loose cannon," the host said of his pal. "That's the thing about him that is also endearing, and so he wears these clothes, and he's got this big hat, and that's part of Bob Katter's persona, and that's certainly the part of his personality that he likes to project." Karl's latest appearance with Mr Katter comes as the Today host continues amusing fans with his hilarious ways, recently showcasing his nighttime beauty routine and showing off his ripped physique at the gym. He has been open about his weight loss journey, having once tipped the scales at 105kg in 2020, as his billionaire pal James Packer urged him to hit the gym following unflattering photos of the star at his heaviest.

Legendary star Martha Stewart spotted at iconic Sydney mansion wearing silky negligee

Big-name international star Martha Stewart has been spotted at the Crypto Castle in Sydney with a tall, dark and handsome mystery man. In a sexy video sent to today, America's home-making queen was seen at the party palace located on a cliffside in South Coogee. In the steamy new clip, in which Stewart is believed to be the face of a new ad campaign, the 83-year-old lifestyle guru and businesswoman is seen wearing a teal-coloured satin robe over a matching silk negligee. The legendary star is seated in an armchair in front of an iPhone set up on a tripod, with the stunning uninterrupted ocean views in the backdrop. As she makes sultry faces at the camera, an attractive man walks into view, seemingly wearing nothing under a teal robe that matches Stewart's. The video is sure to make waves on social media – something Stewart is intimately familiar with. The star is no stranger to going viral after a smouldering poolside selfie she posted to Instagram in 2020 nearly broke the internet. In the ultimate thirst trap, Stewart rocked a navy swimsuit as she puckered up her lips alluringly at the camera from her home's backyard pool in the Hamptons in Long Island in New York. 'My pool in East Hampton is the place to be on a 89 degree day!' she captioned the selfie at the time. The photo clocked up hundreds and thousands of 'likes' within minutes on Instagram alone. Off the back of that ageless selfie, Stewart then became the oldest cover star to grace the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue in 2023, aged 81 at the time. Stewart was in Sydney this past May for an intimate In Conversation with Martha Stewart event at the ICC Theatre for the Vivid festival. 'Last evening in Sydney I spoke to a large audience of approximately 3500 aussies, Interviewed on stage by Benjamin Law,' she shared on Instagram back in May, alongside photos of her outside the Opera House. 'Celebrating 'Vivid Sydney' the largest gathering of its kind in the southern hemisphere, which is meant to encourage tourism in this beautiful city, we, covered a wide variety of subjects about career, life, goals, and even gardening! The audience was lively and interested and we had a great time.' Sounds like Stewart had a great time at the Crypto Castle too …
