Justin Bieber goes shirtless for clothing brand office visit... as he shares post about broken 'olive branch'
Justin Bieber was spotted tending to his clothing brand in West Hollywood on Saturday - the same day he shared a cryptic post with fans. The 31-year-old Peaches hitmaker - who recently offered a rare glimpse inside his $26M Beverly Hills mansion - paid a visit to the headquarters for his clothing brand, SKYLRK, with several other pals. The performer donned a red sweatshirt as well as a white knit beanie on top of his head for the daytime outing, though at one point ditched his outer layer, going shirtless as he headed inside. He was also spotted sitting in the driver's seat of a sleek vehicle as he simultaneously held a conversation on the phone. Justin officially launched the website for his SKYLRK clothing brand on July 10. However, fans have since labeled the high pricing for items 'ridiculous' - with a pair of sunglasses being priced at $200. Other items listed on the website include Beach Slide sandals for $80, a Zip Hoodie for $160, a $40 beanie and Chunky Mule shoes for $180. On the brand's Instagram page, social media users offered their thoughts on the price tag for pieces, with one penning, 'Price is ridiculous for a plain style, not worth it.' Another said, 'Bieber I love you but the price,' while one added, 'Why is everything soooo expensive?? more than half of us can't even buy this stuff. Create a brand that is affordable and universal for everyone.' Others compared pricing to his old brand Drew House - which was launched back in 2018 - and said that items had been 'less expensive.' Also on Saturday, the Baby hitmaker shared a cryptic post to his 294 million followers on Instagram. Justin uploaded a black and white selfie while adding the caption, 'Broke another olive branch.' While he didn't further elaborate, the star could possibly be hinting at an end to a friendship. In June, he notably had uploaded screenshots of a heated text message exchange with another pal. However, fans have since labeled the high pricing for items 'ridiculous' - with a pair of sunglasses being priced at $200 The performer also recently got candid about his 'selfish' behavior in a separate post on the social media platform. 'Let's have a good day, let's go outside. Get in nature. Thanking Jesus for his patience with me this morning. I can be extremely selfish and impatient yet Jesus always has his arms open toward me,' he had written. Last month, Justin dropped his seventh studio album Swag and recently held a listening party last week with his wife Hailey also in attendance. The model has voiced her support for the Peaches hitmaker by clapping back at haters over his new music and also seemingly made a thinly-veiled dig at Justin's ex-manager Scooter Braun. The record executive offered a rave review of the album - not long after the pair finally reached a settlement agreement that will reportedly cost Justin over $30million, according to TMZ. A source told People that Hailey 'was by Justin's side for the whole creation of the album. Everyone knows Justin as a star and a performer. They now get to know the artist that Hailey has known all these years.' After Justin parted ways from Scooter, the music artist was able to 'run his own show' when it came to creating Swag. 'Hailey supported Justin to follow his artistic instincts. She helped him to trust himself and do what Justin knew he wanted to do as an artist.' The Rhode founder - who shares baby boy Jack Blues with Justin - jumped to her Instagram stories last week to upload a snap as she kissed the singer. In the image, Hailey could be seen locking lips with a shirtless Justin as they were joined by other guests at the bash which took place at the exclusive Bird Street Club. It came after the performer seemingly opened up about their marriage woes in tracks on the LP. Some lyrics in his song titled Daisies include, 'Throwin' petals like, "Do you love me or not?" / Head is spinnin', and it don't know when to stop / You said "Forever," babe, did you mean it or not? / Hold on, hold on. 'You leave me on read, babe, but I still get the message / Instead of a line it's three dots, but I can connect them / And if it ain't right, babe, you know I respect it / But if you need time, just take your time / Honey, I get it, I get it, I get it.' In another track called Walking Away, Justin also sings, 'Days go by so fast, don't wanna spend them with you / So tell me why you're throwing stones at my back / You know I'm defenseless. 'Girl, we better stop before we say some s*** / We've been testing our patience / I think we better off if we just take a break.' However, the couple - who tied the knot in 2018 - put on an united front last week during the listening party in L.A. Justin has been active on social media over the weekend and uploaded a carousel of Instagram photos on Sunday. Two images showed the star sitting on a spacious couch whole scrolling on his phone. He opted for comfort by sporting a white tank top as well as a pair of gray shorts. In other snaps, the performer could be seen showing off his skills on the guitar while donning an unzipped sweatshirt and loose-fitting trousers. He flashed a small smile as he played the instrument and also gazed towards the camera in another image.

Check out the viral pics the stars DID NOT want you to see - and wish could be erased from the Internet forever
One of the downsides to living in the spotlight as a celebrity is that your every move can be seen 24 hours a day. However, even moments of downtime were still fair play for photographers and fans to capture and share with the world - even when the stars were not looking their best. That's been the case for a plethora of famous faces, including Ben Affleck and Beyonce, who risked being turned into a meme for a seemingly innocent move - but who else had been affected and wished for the evidence to be eternally scrubbed? SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO KIM KARDASHIAN Kim Kardashian was mortified after what she viewed as 'unflattering' photos of her butt emerged in 2017. A sunshine break on the Mexican coast turned into a holiday from hell for the star when she expressed her shock over the images. The pic showed her in black thong bikini bottoms and a tie-front vest. The mom-of-four was less than impressed with the subsequent images and reacted to the shot on an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Kim said: 'Oh my god! I don't get it. I literally don't look like this. I need to untag myself in everything. I'm literally going to go inside and just start untagging.' ARIANA GRANDE She's been accused of appropriating black culture with her music and image in the past, and Ariana Grande inadvertently sparked another debate in 2021 when she shared a series of promo pics on social media. The controversy being that she was said to have been 'Asian fishing' - a term used to describe someone of non-Asian descent who attempted to adopt an Asian aesthetic. The star's otherwise innocent photos gained attention for all the wrong reasons when fans noted her unusually straight brows, thin-winged eyeliner, no-eyelid make-up, and notably lighter shade of foundation. Even the demure pose she adopted for the shoot came under fire, Ariana was criticized on social media for 'promoting stereotypes' and 'fetishizing' Asian culture. Subsequently, the images were swiftly removed from her Instagram account - but the Internet never forgets. BEN AFFLECK Seen as a reluctant celebrity, images of Ben Affleck's been turned into a meme more times than he would probably care to remember. It's been years since he was forced to respond to his viral notoriety following a grim-faced appearance at the 2023 Grammy Awards with then-wife Jennifer Lopez. However, that wasn't the actor's first time his image had gone viral. In 2016, cameras caught Ben looking rather dejected as he paused for a smoke break on a day out in LA with his daughter Violet. He stopped and stood with one hand in his jeans pocket with his eyes closed in weary contemplation, as he made the most of his time alone. Unfortunately for him, the image - notoriously dubbed 'sad Ben Affleck' - went viral and was used worldwide. KHLOE KARDASHIAN We've all had them, the occasional bad hair day, but not many of us have had pics of such unexpected moments splashed all over the Internet. Khloe Kardashian's one of the unfortunate few who had such an unflattering photo in 2011 on a shopping trip in Dallas when blustery weather worked against her as she made her way back to her car - to the benefit of trailing photographers. KHLOE KARDASHIAN (AGAIN) In 2021, a leaked photo of Khloe began circulating online. Highly unflattering, the unfiltered and unretouched image showed her minus make-up as she modelled in leopard-print swimwear. That might seem innocent, but it later transpired that Khloe and her media-savvy family were desperate to wipe all traces of it - and with good reason. The candid photo - shared without her consent - was damning evidence as to the extent she carefully manipulated her photos before releasing them on social media. The distraught star addressed the drama on Instagram days later, and shared live videos of herself to prove that her body was not regularly 'Photoshopped'. Her subsequent statement spoke about the pressure of being in the spotlight and her body being 'micro-analyzed' as a public figure. She also revealed that being compared to her siblings Kim and Kourtney in addition to 'constant ridicule and judgement' had been 'too much to bear'. JENNIFER ANISTON In a world increasingly opposed to lighting up, it's no surprise that Jennifer Aniston chose to keep her off-screen smoking status a closely guarded secret. However, in 2022, the actress - known for her wholesome, health-conscious public image - was filmed by her former husband Justin Theroux as he lit her cigarette. Not a huge issue, you'd think, but Aniston had claimed to have given up the habit following a previous confession about her being a 'chain-smoker' who could easily get through a pack a day during the early years of her career. Fans took the admission literally, and many believed she had stopped with the cigarettes in 2007 - three years after she'd filmed her final Friends scenes. Unfortunately for her, the damning 'smoking gun' video proved otherwise, and it was swiftly deleted from Justin's Instagram page - but it's still to be found elsewhere. BEYONCE Performing at Super Bowl in 2013, Beyonce sang and danced to thousands of gathered spectators and millions of TV viewers around the world during her halftime show at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. But she was less than impressed with some of the photos that emerged following her energetic performance at the 83,000 capacity venue. In fact, she was forced to confront online outlet Buzzfeed for its publishing of pics with the star in full flow with matted hair, strained sinews, and a sweaty complexion. Beyonce's dismay led to her publicist emailing the site directly with a request for the offending snaps to be taken down - which Buzzfeed refused. The site reacted to the demand with a follow-up article called The Unflattering Photos Beyonce's Publicist Doesn't Want You To See. LANA DEL REY Lana Del Rey would be forgiven for regretting her decision to pose beside a barbed-wire fence right outside Cook County Department of Corrections in 2022. The singer was pictured with her arm around her musician ex Jack Donoghue with the Chicago penitentiary looming behind them. Rumored to have been romantically linked to Jack of the band Salem, Lana seemed to confirm their romance when the image emerged on his Instagram platform, where it was shared alongside the caption: 'Family visit.' Jack previously sparked controversy by sharing a photo of himself licking his pet dog's tongue, and he was also seen in a pic that appeared to capture him during a passionate kiss with a male cousin. Lana wised up and married swamp tour guide Jeremy Dufrene in September 2024.
