Pop star Justin Bieber has made a return to the music studio amid concern from fans as he shared an emotional confession about ‘hating’ himself and ‘not being enough’
Justin Bieber has made a heartbreaking admission about himself as he made a return to music. The pop star has sparked mass concern among fans in recent months due to his dishevelled appearance and unusual social media posts.
In recent months, the Baby hitmaker, 31, sparked growing concern, as he’s been seen stepping out looking downcast and gaunt. Reports suggest that Justin’s wife, Hailey, 28, is “deeply concerned” about him. However, his reps claimed Justin is “simply in one of the best places in his life” as they shut down the rumour he was using hard drugs as “absolutely not true”.
The singer has reportedly focusing on parenting his newborn son, Jack Blues Bieber, and working on new music. Justin has proved he is doing just that as he shared a clip of himself getting back into making music. He could be seen playing a keyboard alongside a group of other musicians, who joined in the jamming session.
Despite getting back to what he loves, Justin shared an emotional confession alongside the post about “hating” himself. He wrote: “I think I hate myself sometimes when I feel myself start to become inauthentic
“Then I remember we’re all being made to think we’re not enough but I still hate when I change myself to please people.” His studio session saw him joined by rising talent Jensen McRae, who took a selfie with Justin.
She praised Justin for returning to the studio as she said: “When you’re creating you’re in your element and you’re living your absolute truth it’s magical to witness!” Fans also joined in supporting Justin for being so open and honest in his post as one said: “Thank you for staying true to yourself, for being so honest and vulnerable because we know It’s not always easy to be open.”
Another added: “We love you, and always do.” Someone else commented: “We can’t wait for your comeback Justin!” Just last week, Justin opened up on feeling like “drowning” in another candid post.
The message, which played alongside SZA’s song I Hate U, led to concern from fans about the Canadian singer’s well-being. Justin wrote: “I was always told when I was a kid not to hate. But it make me feel like I wasn’t allowed to have it and so I didn’t tell anyone I’ve had it.
“Which made me feel like I was drowning, unsafe to acknowledge it. I think we can only let hate go by first acknowledging its there. How couldn’t we feel hate from all of the hurt we’ve experienced.”
Speaking to TMZ, Justin’s representative said the past year has been “very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.” They went on to say the narrative on his mental and physical health is “exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
Justin, who welcomed son Jack with wife Hailey last summer, caused concern over his well-being when he suddenly unfollowed her on social media in January. Right before that, he unfollowed his father-in-law, Stephen Baldwin, and shared a controversial photo of a bong.
He quickly dismissed rumours of a marriage breakdown by sharing a number of photos of his wife and insisted: “Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife. S**t is getting suss out here.”
However, there are concerns that Justin’s past demons may be rearing their heads again, potentially triggered by his association with the arrest of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. He was once a close friend and mentor to Justin, and is currently behind bars awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking, abuse and racketeering – all of which Combs denies.
Earlier this month, Justin posted another heartbreaking message where he hinted that he was struggling with imposter syndrome. He wrote: “People told me my whole life, ‘wow Justin you deserve that’, and I personally have always felt unworthy. Like I was a fraud, like when people told me I deserve something.
“It made me feel sneaky like damn if they only knew my thoughts. How judgemental I am, how selfish I really am. They wouldn’t be saying this. I say all this to say. If you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days.”
