Justin Bieber Posts Lengthy Statement Amid Sources Talking About Him and Hailey Bieber
The "Sorry" singer posted what looks to be a lengthy response to all the speculation, kicking things off with a musing about his belief system.
"The feeling of guilt can be relieved," he wrote on Instagram. "How? Not by going to church or reading your bible. But just receive that god forgives. The MESSAGE is FORGIVENESS. JESUS FORGIVES WHO THE CULTURE NEVER FORGIVES."
Justin went on to more directly allude to sources speaking about him, saying "They treat me like ass out here, but if I remember that I am flawed too and god forgave me, it helps me to stop feeling better than those people who are mean and hurtful. Because when I'm really honest I can be mean and hurtful too. My instinct is to be like damn I wouldn't gossip and spread lies about someone on the internet but there's other shit I do I'm not proud of that god is gracious with. Hurt people hurt people."
He then referenced his relationship with Hailey Bieber (unfounded divorce rumors have been following them for months), saying "And honestly if I was you it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going so brazzzzyy. It's really up for us and that's understandable why people can't stand it. I don't blame em."
Welp. That's that on that!

Justin Bieber Wasn't Melting Down — He Was Locked In
In between standing on business in paparazzi clashes and dodging endless rumors about his personal life, it turns out Justin Bieber was busy in the studio, making a genuinely interesting album. Swag is full of well-chosen collaborators — Gunna, Sexyy Red, Cash Cobain, Lil B, Dijon — confessional lyrics, and even surprisingly self-aware skits recorded with Druski. More from Rolling Stone Travis Scott's 'Jackboys 2' Tops Albums Chart The Sabrina Carpenter You Don't Know Justin Bieber Finally Had '100% Creative Freedom' on 'Swag' After Scooter Braun Split: Source In the new episode of our Rolling Stone Music Now podcast, we break down the last few years of Bieber's life and career, with Jeff Ihaza (who wrote a smart piece on Bieber's cultural savvy) and Brittany Spanos joining host Brian Hiatt. (To hear the whole episode, go here for the podcast provider of your choice, listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, or just press play above.) The discussion notes that Bieber stepped off the pop treadmill after the endless work of his younger years — Swag is only his third album of the past 10 years. It's also a welcome throwback to an era where male pop stars drew from R&B instead of, say, soft rock. The panel goes on to dig into Bieber's enduring influence — stars like Billie Eilish worship him, and he still carries weight as 'a cool white boy,' as Ihaza puts it, in hip-hop and R&B.

Justin Bieber's Experimental ‘Swag' Resurgence
Earlier this month, Justin Bieber surprise-released his seventh album, 'Swag,' and it is his most idiosyncratic and musically adventurous release to date. Early in his career, he was a superstar by force, and later by will, or something like it. Now, after a few years out of the spotlight, he's verging toward tastemaker, or at least someone who pays close attention to actual tastemakers. Midcareer artist rebrands are a dime a dozen, but in the current algorithmically-driven moment, rarely do they veer in such uncertain directions. But Bieber's work with the guitar innovator the soul provocateur Dijon, the frisky hip-hop producer Cash Cobain and more indicates a willingness to disrupt his fame a little if it means potentially making something interesting. On this week's Popcast, a conversation about Bieber's tug of war between pop success and R&B passion; how his tabloid life influences his musical directions; and whether any artist can actually navigate the level of fame Bieber has experienced.
