Justin Bieber Admits He Can Be 'Extremely Selfish' in Personal Message
Justin Bieber knows it's never too late to say sorry.
Indeed, the 'Peaches' singer reflected on what he sees as his personal shortcomings while sharing how he leans on his spirituality during tough times.
'Thanking Jesus for his patience with me this morning,' Justin wrote in a July 29 post to X (formerly Twitter). 'I can be extremely selfish and impatient yet Jesus always has his arms open toward me.'
Alongside pictures of himself smiling while hiking in the woods, the 31-year-old added an optimistic message to fans, saying, 'Let's have a good day, let's go outside. Get in nature.'
While the reflection from Justin—who shares son Jack Blues, 11 months, with wife Hailey Bieber—offered a peek into his mindset, it's not the first time he has let the world in on his insecurities. In fact, earlier this year he opened up about feeling inadequate amid his success.
"I personally have always felt unworthy, like I was a fraud," Justin wrote on his Instagram Story in March. "Like when people told me I deserve something, it made me feel sneaky like, 'Damn, if they only knew my thoughts, how judgmental I am, how selfish I really am. They wouldn't be saying this.'"
Justin also used the moment to pay tribute to the late Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, who died at the age of 76on July 22. At the end of his photo dump, the 'Baby' singer included a throwback photo with the heavy metal singer.
Justin's new album is among his most honest, sharing insight into how he's learned to navigate his years living life in the public eye. In 'Therapy Sessions,' one of the album's many interludes featuring Druski, the comedian and Justin discuss the latter's social media presence, which has raised eyebrows in recent months.

'I say all this to say, if you feel sneaky welcome to the club,' he continued, "I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days."
Justin also channeled that vulnerability into his new album Swag—released earlier this month—detailing how being a public figure has impacted the way he processes his emotions.

'I think that's been a tough thing for me recently,' the singer says on 'Therapy Sessions,' one of the album's interludes. 'Feeling like I've had to go through a lot of my struggles as a human really publicly and so people always asking if I'm okay and that starts to really weigh on me.'
Justin's seventh studio album wasn't just a space for him to discuss his insecurities, though. He also highlighted his relationship with Hailey, who he believes supports him for better or worse.
'I'm startin' to be open to the idea that you know me too,' he sings on the song 'Devotion.' He then adds, 'I like when you hold me to ya / I like when you scold me too.'
Read on for a look back at Justin and Hailey's romance through the years.

Jessica Biel Revealed The Fast Food She Doesn't Let Her Kids Eat, And It's A Hot Take
Jessica Biel is all about eating "clean" — so of course, that means some restaurants are naturally off-limits. In an interview with Parade, Jessica said that for her family — which includes sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 4, with husband Justin Timberlake — one of those places is iconic restaurant chain McDonald's. Related: "I'm like, 'Sorry, guys, I'm not doing it,'" she said of going to McDonald's with her sons. "They don't get McDonald's." Jessica explained that her concern lies in the ingredients. "I just feel like I don't know what's going on with [the] quality of that food," she shared. "It's stuff like that that I'm like, 'No, we're not.' Let's go have a great burger and fries at a fancy place. I'd rather pay more for you to have something fancy than something like that." Jessica insisted she's not "crazy, rigid and strict" — it's just one rule her children have to abide by. "That would be something that, if they asked me for, I would just be like, 'Next! Next place. Next down the line!'" You already know the comments prompted opinion online. Related: Many readers agreed with her. Writing under a People magazine post about Jessica's comments, one person said, "It's so unhealthy. I agree. Has it been in my house, yep. But as I age, nopers." Another person wrote, "Mine too .... I make my own burgers with good quality ingredients...." Related: At the same time, some thought it was a little unfair to her children. "Poor little boys," one person wrote in part, as another person said they're "glad [they] don't live there." Some also felt that Jessica's comments were a bit out of touch, as McDonald's is sometimes the only affordable option for many people. "See here's the thing Jessica, some of us are poor," someone wrote, as another person said her comments reeked of "privilege." Related: "Ok millionaire.. thanks for sharing," commented another. While someone else said, "'Kim, there's people that are dying.'" Tell me your stance in the comments. Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity: Solve the daily Crossword

For Cash Cobain, Working With Justin Bieber Was Like a Movie
It should come as no surprise that Justin Bieber, who spent the first part of this year shedding the artifice of his old persona in favor of swaggier pastures, is tapped in with the music New York 'Sexy Drill' pioneer Cash Cobain. The two linked up on Bieber's latest album, Swag, which he surprise-released earlier this month. On the album's title track, Cobain's signature triplet cadence sits along Bieber's silky, vintage R&B-infused vocals like a match made in heaven. Like with all things Bieber as of late, it all starts on Instagram, where he first caught the attention of Cash Cobain after posting his song 'Trippin on a Yacht' to his page. 'Everybody would just send me that shit, so I just followed bro and I wrote, 'Now we got to work. We got to get something in,'' Cobain says via Zoom a few days after Swag's release. 'He was like, 'All right, bet. Definitely got to do it, I fuck with your shit.'' More from Rolling Stone Justin Bieber's 'Go Baby' Has CPR-Approved Tempo Justin Bieber's 'Swag' Lands at Number 2. It's Still His Biggest Streaming Debut Yet The Biebers: A Complete Timeline of Justin and Hailey's Relationship While it's not uncommon for artists, especially producers, to get these kinds of 'let's do something' DMs from artists, Bieber, in fact, followed through. After the two exchanged numbers, they chatted about music back and forth until, one day, Bieber was in New York and reached out to Cobain to work. 'I pulled up on him. He's at his crib with a couple of people there. We had like, a laptop, speakers, and instruments in this circle,' Cobain recalls. 'We was just vibing and shit. A couple of musicians and a couple of other people was there.' What was it like in the studio with Bieber? 'That nigga's a movie,' Cobain says. 'He was just doing ideas. I never got to really see him really locked in, like, on some Justin Bieber shit. I'm pretty sure that shit will be fire, though.' After jamming for about half an hour, they made a sketch of a track before Bieber had to head out to attend a basketball game. Cobain thought nothing of the session, though the two kept in touch, chit-chatting about music and regular life stuff. 'It was really on music and stuff like that, I'd be sending him beats and shit,' Cobain explains. 'Like, he's swaggy. He's been on the swag shit for a little minute. But we was talking regular shit, too. We cool. He'd check on me like, 'I'm just checking on you.'' Then, the same week that Bieber announced the album, he sent Cobain a reference track of the song they'd worked on. 'He's like, we're going to try to get it on the album, and I'm like, 'All right, bet,' so I fixed it up and then the next day or the day after the next day, that shit was out.' For Cash Cobain, who grew up listening to Bieber ('Man, who hasn't been listening to Justin Bieber? Come on, it's Bieber,' he says), the moment felt surreal. 'That boy into it, you know? He on top of his game,' he says. 'He knows what's good. He knows what's going on.' The collaboration is just the beginning for Cash Cobain, who has a new album titled Party With Slizzy set to drop sometime later this year. He says he's looking to tap in with other major pop acts, namely Sabrina Carpenter and Doja Cat. 'I'm just a party, man. I'm a good time, man, so I'm welcoming people to the party,' he says. Speaking of a party, last year we tried to go to Slizzy Fest, and it got shut down. Inquiring minds are wondering, now that he's got the Bieber co-sign, will he try again this year? 'I don't know, man. It won't be the same. I had some shit that was going to pop out,' he says. 'I never got over that, so I don't know.' Either way, he says fans can expect some live shows in the fall when he's set to go on tour.
