What’s Going On with Justin Bieber? Photos Spark Health Concerns
The singer dismisses speculation and sets the record straight on rumored drug relapse
Whenever Justin Bieber is photographed, the focus often shifts to his appearance—whether it’s his clothing, style, or overall look. This time was no different. A few days ago, paparazzi caught him in New York, and the photos quickly went viral, sparking a wave of reactions online.
In the pictures, Bieber looked a bit unwell, with a messy beard, red eyes, noticeable weight loss, and dark circles under his eyes. Features that immediately worried his fans.
Speculation spread across social media, with many wondering: Has Justin Bieber relapsed into drugs? The rumors gained even more attention, especially since Bieber became a father last August with model Hailey Bieber. However, his team didn’t stay silent and quickly stepped in to clear things up.

A Dedicated Father, Not a Drug Addict
According to Bieber’s manager, the rumors of a relapse are completely false. “The repeated claims that Justin is using hard drugs are simply not true,” told TMZ. In fact, he emphasized that Bieber is in one of the best moments of his life, fully focused on fatherhood and caring for his child.
Bieber’s team explained that the past year hasn’t been easy for him. He has had to make big changes in his personal and professional relationships. Stepping away from certain connections, along with constant unfounded rumors, has taken a toll, leading to mental and emotional exhaustion.
These reports are “exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive,” his spokesperson said.

Tired, Not in Trouble
At the end of the day, the fatigued look seen in recent photos is simply the result of long hours in the recording studio, the stress of social media, and sleepless nights caring for his newborn—who has also had trouble sleeping. As he navigates this special time as a new father, we send our best wishes to Justin, hoping he gets the rest and balance he needs.
