Justin Bieber Posted A Cryptic Message About 'Fears' And Letting Go 'To Mature' After Pushing Back Against Rumors He And Hailey Are Divorcing
Whether it's fans picking apart their social media posts or quotes from their family members, sleuths online are pretty much always speculating that their marriage is on the rocks. But, the couple — who welcomed their baby boy, Jack Blues Bieber, last year — have pushed back against divorce rumors and made it clear that they're a united team.
Only last month, Justin was forced to clarify that he and Hailey are all good after fans online noticed that he'd unfollowed her on Instagram. Setting the record straight, he wrote on his Instagram story: 'Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife. Shit is getting suss out here.'
Around the same time, a source also talked to People about the 'constant split rumors,' emphasizing that Justin and Hailey are 'fine' and that 'anyone who spends a lot of time with them can tell how in love they are and also how super focused they are on their marriage.'
'They are both very mature for their age and so in it together. It's [a] very special marriage,' the insider added.
And now, off the back of all the unfollowing headlines, Justin has offered some words of advice to his Instagram followers about growth and how to 'enter into a life of love.'
On Feb. 20, Justin — who's open about his Christian beliefs — posted a lengthy and cryptic message to his Instagram Story set to the sound of 'Free Fallin'' by John Mayer. 'Its time to grow up,' he began. 'Changing is about letting go ! Not trying harder! Are you tired of trying to follow all of the rules in hopes to get the results you crave? I've found love to be more powerful than rules.'

Admitting that he's not always 'good' at following rules, Justin told his followers: 'u dont need to follow rules to enter into a life of love. U just receive so enter love living! God always grants us love! Its one of his promises! Upon receiving Gods love! U start to change and start following love.'
The post concluded with sentiments about growth and maturity, with the singer advising that 'you don't work to mature,' you 'let go to mature.' 'Today im letting go and remembering the weight isnt on me to change. The weight is on God,' he wrote. 'So I give all my insecurities and my fears to him this morning. Because I know he gladly takes it. Asking Jesus to genuinely help me with simply the next step today.'
So, it certainly sounds like Justin is working through some feelings — and maybe that'll coincide with some new music. Notably, JB has been more active on social media in recent months, dropping hints that he's gearing up to drop his first new album since 2021. Here's to hoping!

Michael Jordan Picked Kevin Durant Over LeBron James And Kobe Bryant In Resurfaced Video
Michael Jordan Picked Kevin Durant Over LeBron James And Kobe Bryant In Resurfaced Video originally appeared on Fadeaway World. Kevin Durant recently took a hilarious jab at Michael Jordan while praising LeBron James' longevity. Following his comments, fans were not very pleased on social media and called him out. Durant was hence forced to reveal that he did not mean to disrespect Jordan and holds him in a very high regard. So much that he claimed to have spent $1 million on just Jordan's shoes. Advertisement Following this, a basketball page on Instagram resurfaced an old fan-made video that included Michael Jordan's 2013 interview with Ahmad Rashad, where Jordan indicated what he felt about Kevin Durant. It was also combined with Kobe Bryant's comments on Durant from his appearance on 'The Corp With A-Rod and Big Cat' in 2018. When Jordan was asked to pick between Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, he got flustered and could not decide. "Well, I'd say... Kevin Durant," said Jordan as he hilariously tried to create a way out for himself from that question. But it indicated that Jordan felt Durant belonged in the same discussion as James and Bryant. Following this, the video cuts to Kobe Bryant's comments on Durant after he retired, where he claimed he was the hardest to guard. Advertisement "Kevin Durant, that was the one I had to retire without having been able to figure out what it is that he--- how I can stop him." Then the video cuts to Durant's comments on what he said to Patrick Beverley during their back-and-forth trash-talking in a Warriors game. "Back and forth with Patrick Beverley, I'm Kevin Durant, you know who I am. Y'all know who I am." While the video is originally a fan-made video to highlight Kevin Durant's greatness, some fans were still unhappy with Durant and criticized him in the comments section. Fans also pointed out that in the original interview with Rashad, Jordan in fact corrects himself later and answers the question directly, saying LeBron James is more dominant but Kobe Bryant is a better winner. Here are some other criticisms that Durant got from the fans in the post's comment section. Advertisement "They cut the scenes. MJ was just playing, he was going to take LBJ or Kobe anyway over KD. He can't win nothing without Steph [Curry]." "He was clearly joking because he didn't want to choose between them. Jeez the internet is dumb." "Insecure can never be GOAT." "Unlimited skill but can't win a chip by himself. The definition of good for no reason lol" "People are gonna feed into this knowing he said something different." "The Boston Celtics made this man look pedestrian in the playoffs." To be fair, James and Bryant are better than Durant in almost every statistical measure except scoring. James has accumulated more points in five more years in the league, sure, but Durant averages better numbers for his career. James has averaged 27.0 points per game for 22 seasons so far, while Durant has averaged 27.2 points per game in 17 seasons played in the NBA. Advertisement If Durant plays as long as James has played, then he would potentially surpass his all-time record. However, that would also require him to be consistent for that duration. At age 36, Durant is only four years younger than James but two seasons behind in parallel (James started playing at 18 while Durant was 20 years old). But James is about to play another season in the NBA, at least. Do you think Durant could play until age 43 to beat James' record?

Colleen Hoover's 'Verity' Movie With Anne Hathaway Suffers Major Setback originally appeared on Parade. Colleen Hoover readers are accustomed to her plot twists, but those eagerly awaiting the film adaptation of her massively popular book Verity likely never saw this one coming. The release date for the film — which stars Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson and Josh Hartnett — has been pushed back to Oct. 2, 2026, after previously being set for May 15, 2026, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The movie will now be in theaters nearly five months later than initially expected. Verity is based on Hoover's psychological thriller of the same name. She self-published the novel in 2018 before it was acquired by Grand Central Publishing in 2021 for traditional publication. The New York Times bestseller has sold more than 3 million copies. The story follows struggling writer Lowen Ashleigh (Johnson) after she is hired by Jeremy Crawford (Hartnett) to complete a book series by his author wife, Verity Crawford (Hathaway), following her involvement in a mysterious accident.

'So Be It… that's a wrap on the #VerityMovie production!' she captioned an Instagram video of herself holding the novel and a script for film. 'See you in theaters May 15, 2026.' At the time, Hoover, 45, praised Hathaway in the comments section of her post. 'Thank you for everything, it was such a wonderful experience!' she replied. 'I can't wait to see it all come together. You. Are. Amazing.' Verity is just the latest of Hoover's books to be adapted for film following 2024's It Ends With Us starring Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni and Brandon Sklenar. Regretting You — with Allison Williams, McKenna Grace and Dave Franco — is set to arrive in theaters on Oct. 24, 2025, and Reminders of Him — starring Maika Monroe, Tyriq Withers, Rudy Pankow and Lauren Graham — is scheduled to be released on Feb. 13, 2026.

Blake Griffin shares bizarre Donald Sterling locker room encounter
More than a decade after he was banned from the NBA, the bizarre Donald Sterling stories are still flowing. Former Clippers star Blake Griffin detailed an awkward locker room interaction he had with the franchise's former owner during an appearance on 'The Adam Friedland Show' this week. 'He would come in with his crew, it'd be like 10-12 people with him in the locker room. And we'd all have towels on,' Griffin recalled. 'One time, I'm in a towel, [Sterling] comes over, grabs my arm, and he's got all his people in there and he goes, 'Let's hear it for our number one star, hip hip!' And he raised my arm, and all these people go 'hooray!' Advertisement 3 Blake Griffin apparently had some weird interactions with former Clippers owner Donald Sterling. Adam Friedland Show/YouTube 'And I'm sitting there holding the towel going 'hip hip, hooray!' He did it three times.' The No. 1 overall pick in 2009 also told the story of a time Sterling told some in attendance at one of his white parties to touch Griffin's ab and arm muscles. Advertisement 3 Former Clippers owner Donald Sterling gestures while watching the Clippers play the Los Angeles Lakers during an NBA preseason basketball game in Los Angeles. AP 'I was like 19 years old,' Griffin said. It's far from the first time Griffin, who spent eight-plus seasons with the Clippers, has ripped the disgraced Sterling. In a 2014 piece for The Players' Tribune, Griffin described Sterling as his 'weird uncle,' and stated that he had long known he was 'really, really a racist' and 'off his rocker.' Advertisement 3 Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin #32 shoots a free throw. March 25th, 2015. Anthony J. Causi / New York Post The ex-Clippers owner was banned from the league by commissioner Adam Silver in 2014 after recordings by his then-girlfriend V. Stiviano of a racist rant by Sterling — where he told Stiviano not to bring 'black people' to his games — emerged. Sterling also told Stiviano, 'You can sleep with [black people]. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want. The little I ask you is not to promote it on that [Instagram] and not to bring them to my games.' Advertisement Griffin retired from the NBA in 2023 after 13 seasons in the league, making six NBA All-Star teams and five All-NBA teams. Next season, Griffin will serve as an analyst alongside Dirk Nowitzki and host Taylor Rooks on Amazon's new NBA studio show.
