Justin Bieber sparks concern with 'detox' photo as fans say 'that's not okay'
Justin Bieber has left fans unsettled after uploading a series of cryptic photos on Instagram, hinting at a 'detox' while rumours of tension in his marriage to Hailey Bieber continue to swirl.
On Sunday, the 31-year-old pop star shared five photos with the caption: 'Detoxxxxxxxxxxx.' Four images showed extreme close-ups of his sweat-drenched face with a towel draped over his head. He appeared to force a slight smirk, which further prompted fans to question his well-being.
The final photo in the set showed a Honda CRV on a highway with European license plates and a 100 km/h speed sign, adding more confusion to the post.
While Justin offered no explanation, many interpreted the word 'detox' to reference a wellness cleanse or possible emotional reset. Detoxes are often associated with cutting out harmful substances, stress relief, or fasting. They can also include saunas, juice fasts, or supplements, though it is still unclear what form of detox Justin is undertaking.
Concerned followers quickly flooded the comments. One fan wrote: 'Dear Justin, as a Canadian mama please do not go down the Britney Spears road. You are a smart, talented, loving young man and you are being steered down the wrong path by people who do not care about you."
The social media user went on: "Come home for a while, come back to Canada. Go rent a cottage in lake country with your wife, son, and family that care for you while you focus on your mental health and physical health. You are a good kid who deserves better than you are allowing yourself.'
The emotional post comes amid speculation of mounting pressure behind the scenes. A source recently told Us Weekly: 'Justin's been a hard person to deal with recently because of what he's going through. It's been really hard on her [Hailey].'
Another insider said: 'Justin's going through a difficult time, and Hailey is giving him room to get himself back on track. He's doing his best, but it's tough.'
Although Hailey recently sold her Rhode Beauty brand to e.l.f. for $1 billion, staying on as chief creative officer, reports claim family pressures have dimmed the milestone.
Still, insiders insist the couple remains committed. 'They don't talk about divorce,' said one source, while another added: 'Faith is a big part of their life. They believe they are soulmates and meant for each other. They'll do anything to make it work.'

Moment police & SNIFFER DOG scour Kneecap dressing room ahead of Glasgow gig
THIS is the moment police and sniffer dogs scour Kneecap's dressing room ahead of the band's sold-out Glasgow gig. The Irish rappers are performing at the O2 Academy tonight after they were axed from the TRNSMT line-up in May. 5 Police and sniffer dogs were captured scouring Kneecap's dressing room at the O2 Academy 5 A video shows an officer leading a dog around the room 5 The group arriving in Glasgow earlier on today ahead of the sold-out gig Credit: PA The group were ditched by promoters DF Concerts amid 'safety concerns' around the July 11 event. It follows a row over an investigation by counter-terror police into rapper Mo Chara, who is accused of terrorism offences related to a Hezbollah flag he allegedly held up on stage. They apologised to fans following the TRNSMT decision, and in a bid to "try to make up for it", the band decided to put on a show at the O2 Academy. And ahead of their show, police and sniffer dogs were scouring their dressing room. A video which was shared on the band's Instagram shows an officer leading a dog around the room while members sit on some sofas. Another snap on the group's Facebook shows a van with a 'search dogs' sticker on the side. Billie Eilish and Kendrick Lamar are also performing in the city today, with Police Scotland "aiming to minimise disruption". Cops also stated that a "proportionate and considered policing plan" is currently in place during the gigs. Superintendent Paul Douglas said: "We are aware of a number of events and concerts due to take place in the Greater Glasgow area in the week beginning Monday July 7 2025. "A proportionate and considered policing plan is in place within the city and we are working with a number of stakeholders to ensure the safety of all those attending these events and where possible minimise disruption to the people of Glasgow." Crowds gather as Kneecap play Glasgow gig after TRNSMT axe Pictures from the venue earlier showed the group arriving and waving to fans, with member Móglaí Bap wearing a classic Celtic Bumblee away shirt. Meanwhile, Mo Chara greeted fans with a peace sign as security led the pair into the venue. Police were also standing by outside the O2 with pro-Palestine demonstrators gathered nearby. Door staff were ordering fans to remove tricolour-style balaclavas, like that worn by Kneecap member DJ Próvaí. Police Scotland have been approached for comment. 5 Mo Chara greeted fans as security led the pair into the venue Credit: PA

Gregg Wallace sacked as MasterChef presenter, says BBC News
The 60-year-old had stepped away from hosting the BBC cooking competition last year after a number of historical complaints came to light. There have been fresh claims about the TV presenter from 50 more people to the corporation including allegations he groped one MasterChef worker and pulled his trousers down in front of another, BBC News said. A university student has claimed he reached under her skirt and pinched her bottom in a nightclub, and a junior worker alleged he dropped his trousers in front of her while he was not wearing any underwear. Gregg Wallace co-presented MasterChef until last year (Ian West/PA) Production firm Banijay previously said Wallace is 'committed to fully co-operating' with the external review while his lawyers have previously strongly denied 'he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature', according to BBC News. Some of the more recent claims include a MasterChef worker who said she tried to complain about comments she alleged he made about her body in 2022, and a former policeman who said he tried to raise concerns after he allegedly witnessed Wallace making inappropriate sexual comments at a charity event in 2023. BBC News reported the majority of the 50 people had said he made inappropriate sexual comments, with 11 women accusing him of inappropriate sexual behaviour, such as groping and touching. BBC News also said it has not seen the final Banijay report but it is understood the presenter has been sacked. Earlier on Tuesday, the former greengrocer claimed he had been cleared of the 'most serious and sensational accusations' against him ahead of the report examining his alleged misconduct. In a statement posted on his Instagram account, he said: 'I will not go quietly. I will not be cancelled for convenience. I was tried by media and hung out to dry well before the facts were established. 'The full story of this incredible injustice must be told and it is very much a matter of public interest.' He also said he recognises that some of his humour and language was inappropriate 'at times' and apologised for this. Wallace started out as a greengrocer before he shot to fame fronting BBC shows including Inside The Factory, Supermarket Secrets, as well as MasterChef, Celebrity MasterChef and MasterChef: The Professionals. The most recent series of MasterChef: The Professionals continued to air last year amid allegations against Wallace, but two MasterChef celebrity Christmas specials were pulled from the BBC's schedule in December 2024. At the time, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said she would look to impose new standards in the creative industry amid the allegations. A BBC spokesperson said: 'Banijay UK instructed the law firm Lewis Silkin to run an investigation into allegations against Gregg Wallace. 'We are not going to comment until the investigation is complete and the findings are published.' Banijay UK declined to comment on Wallace's comments.

Gregg Wallace hit by 50 allegations claiming star pulled down trousers and groped colleague as he's fired by BBC
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GREGG Wallace has been hit by misconduct claims from 50 new people, it was sensationally revealed last night. They include allegations that the star - now sacked as MasterChef presenter - groped one show worker and pulled his trousers down in front of two others. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Gregg Wallace has been sacked from his job at the BBC Credit: PA 5 The presenter has been slammed with 50 new allegations of misconduct Credit: PA One of the two described it a 'predatory' encounter. She also claimed a boss dismissed her report of the alleged incident as she was over 16 and 'not being Jimmy Savile-d'. Another woman claimed Wallace groped her bottom while he spoke to ex co-host John Torode at the bar, during a wrap party in 2013. The bombshell claims emerged after a nine-month sexual misconduct investigation into the star, who denies any wrongdoing. And the claims come after Wallace, 60, stepped down as MasterChef presenter last November. He exited the show after 13 people accused him of making inappropriate sexual comments. Wallace - who has also fronted Celebrity Masterchef, Masterchef: The Professionals and Saturday Kitchen - came out fighting yesterday after it emerged he had been axed. In a lengthy online statement he insisted he had been cleared of 'the most serious and sensational accusations'. On Instagram, where he has 220,000 followers, Wallace said: 'After 21 years of loyal service to the BBC, I cannot sit in silence while my reputation is further damaged. 'The most damaging claims were found to be baseless after a full and forensic six-month investigation.' Gregg Wallace offers advice to fans for £200 But hours after Wallace's online post, BBC News revealed the new claims against him during a probe by independent law firm Lewis Silkin. It was hired by MasterChef production company Banijay to conduct a thorough investigation. The BBC said last night it had not seen the Banijay report. But its story said the corporation had been contacted by people across a range of shows and settings. Most allegations were said to centre on inappropriate sexual comments, though 11 women are said to have accused him of inappropriate sexual behaviour. That behaviour is said to include groping and touching. The allegations raise fresh questions for the Beeb and Banijay over their oversight of Wallace's alleged behaviour and their duty of care to staff. One woman - called Alice by the BBC - claims Wallace took his trousers down in front of her in a dressing room. 5 The presenter has been accused of 'predatory' behaviour Credit: Getty She accused TV veteran Wallace of 'disgusting and predatory' behaviour. Another, using the name Sophie, says she was left feeling 'absolutely horrified' and 'quite sick' when he allegedly groped her. Others who contacted the corporation with fresh claims about the star include a participant on Saturday Kitchen, which Wallace hosted in 2002-2003. The morning cooking show was, at that time, produced in-house by the BBC. During a dinner ahead of filming in 2002, 'Sophie' claimed Wallace put his hand under the table and onto her groin, saying: 'Do you like that?' Another woman is a university student who says she met Wallace in a nightclub with friends in 2013. She claims that - after she asked to take a photo with him - he reached under her skirt and grabbed and groped her bottom. The BBC reported that another woman alleged that Wallace put his hand up her dress at an industry ball in 2014 and groped her. And a junior worker claims that - in 2012 - Wallace dropped his trousers in front of her. She alleges he was not wearing underwear. 5 One male cop said he was silenced when raising concerns about Wallace Credit: PA A string of men have also claimed they witnessed Wallace making inappropriate sexual comments, it was reported. A former male cop has also said he tried to raise concerns about Wallace's sexually inappropriate language to the BBC in 2023 but was stonewalled. And other recent claims include a 19-year-old MasterChef worker who says she tried to complain about Wallace's comments about her body in 2022. The BBC said many of the women were young freelancers who felt unable to complain about Wallace's behaviour at the time amid fears it would hamper their careers. But one - 'Alice' - said she voiced concerns to bosses but claims they were dismissed. She worked on MasterChef between 2011 and 2013 when she was in her 20s. At the time, the show was produced by Shine, a company now owned by Banijay. She alleged that Wallace once asked her into his dressing room, saying he needed help getting into a black-tie outfit. She claimed he pushed her down onto a sofa, pulled his trousers down and told her he wasn't wearing any underwear, the BBC said. She reported what had happened, she says, but was told by a senior production member: 'You're over 16, you're not being 'Jimmy Saviled'.' Gregg Wallace - MasterChef scandal in Brief GREGG Wallace has stepped down from his MasterChef hosting role after a probe into alleged inappropriate behaviour. But what's the situation? Regular MasterChef host Gregg Wallace is currently the subject of a probe after an investigation was launched into his alleged misconduct over a number of years. Gregg has been accused of making sexual remarks to 13 colleagues including Beeb anchor Kirsty Wark - accusations he denies. The 60-year-old has now stepped away from the BBC show while historical misconduct allegations against him are investigated. Yet the former greengrocer spoke out on social media to blast the "women of a certain age" who he claimed were behind the allegations. The cooking show's production company, Banijay UK, has said law firm Lewis Silkin would lead the investigation into Wallace's alleged misconduct. Alice said she felt let down and left with the impression she should 'be grateful and get on with it' due to her lowly role. She has contributed to the Banijay inquiry, the BBC said. A woman - 'Anna' - claims Wallace pulled his trousers down in front of her as she worked on a photo shoot with him in 2012. The alleged incident occurred when they were alone together in a dressing room area - and she could see he was not wearing underwear. Wallace is said to have changed into the clothes she was holding from before she left. She also claimed Wallace made lewd comments and was 'touchy-feely'. Anna said she felt 'undermined' , unable to complain due to her junior position. She told the BBC she had spoken up after being angered by Wallace's Instagram video last year which saw him claim allegations had come from 'a handful of middle-class women of a certain age'. The Beeb reported her as saying: 'Is he saying it was OK to behave that way with younger women, like I was at the time?' Another MasterChef worker, Sophie, claims she was groped by the presenter at a wrap party at the end of the 2013 series. She described the incident - which she claims happened as she was talking to Wallace and then co-host John Torode - he was about as 'a full-handed squeeze'. She added: 'I turned around and it was Gregg.' There is no suggestion Mr Torode was aware of the incident. Again, the woman feared complaints would be ignored. Sophie has also contributed to the Banijay inquiry. 5 Wallace has hit back at his former employers at the BBC Credit: Getty Some new allegations happened away from television - one of them in the mid-to-late 2000s in Nottingham during a book tour. Publicist 'Esther' said Wallace pushed his way into her hotel room, took off his clothes, and then asked her: 'Exactly what is it that you do?' She says she was shocked and made it clear she was not interested, telling him: 'That's not part of my job.' Esther claims he then says he climbed into her bed and fell asleep - prompting her to sleep at the edge of the bed, with her clothes on. She claims that - when he woke up - Wallace put his hand on her bottom and commented that she had a 'nice arse'. She ordered him to leave, and he did, it was reported. Esther did not complain at the time, but has contributed to the Banijay inquiry. Yesterday, Wallace said: 'I will not go quietly. I will not be cancelled for convenience. I was tried by media and hung out to dry well before the facts were established.' He also accused the BBC of 'peddling baseless and sensationalised gossip masquerading as properly corroborated stories'. On Instagram, he said: 'I recognise that some of my humour and language, at times, was inappropriate. For that, I apologise without reservation. But I was never the caricature now being sold for clicks.' The BBC News report also said some people had got in touch to insiated Walace's behaviour amounted to 'jokes' and 'banter'. But a cameraman, who worked on the BBC show Eat Well For Less in 2016, said he heard Wallace make inappropriate comments in front of the production team. This is alleged to have included asking a gay female director about her 'lesbian clothing'. He said: 'It's not banter, it's not how you should behave in a professional workplace,' the BBC reportded. A recent report into the BBC found that a small number of its stars and managers 'behave unacceptably' at work, and that bosses often fail to tackle them. In response, the broadcaster said it would introduce reforms, and its chairman Samir Shah said he would draw 'a line in the sand'. Banijay has said that it will not comment on the accusations until the report is published.
