Justin Bieber has denied the allegations of substance abuse and emphasized that he is simply enjoying life.
Justin Bieber has refuted recent rumors regarding his alleged use of hard drugs, asserting that he is simply relishing life.
A spokesperson for the artist informed TMZ that the persistent claims about Bieber’s supposed drug use are completely unfounded. They emphasized that he is currently in a positive state, concentrating on parenting his newborn son with his wife, Hailey, working on new music, and eagerly anticipating his 31st birthday later this week.
“The past year has been very transformative for him as he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him,” the rep said.
According to the spokesperson, Bieber’s main priorities revolve around supporting his family, maintaining his health, and creating music. The representative criticized the ongoing speculation regarding Bieber’s mental and physical health, describing it as “exhausting and pitiful,” and noted that there seems to be a determination to propagate negative narratives despite the reality.
The singer recently came under scrutiny after being photographed in New York earlier this month with red eyes and dark circles, which sparked online speculation about drug use. However, sources close to Bieber clarified to TMZ that he had been recording music throughout the night and had not slept, which contributed to his appearance. Furthermore, he had spent part of the evening attending to his son, who was experiencing sleep difficulties.
A video of Bieber engaging with a fan at a Rhode pop-up event in Los Angeles last Thursday also intensified speculation, with some social media users suggesting he appeared to be under the influence. Nevertheless, sources maintain that Bieber was not high but was simply enjoying a lighthearted interaction with a fan while supporting Hailey’s event.
Critics have cited Bieber’s past struggles with substance abuse as a basis for their concerns. The singer has been candid about experimenting with marijuana at a young age and later using more potent drugs, revealing that his security team would sometimes check his pulse at night.
Bieber has maintained sobriety since 2014. Although he occasionally consumes alcohol in social settings, he has ceased the use of prescription medications and other substances. The artist seems to be in a stable phase of his life and expresses frustration regarding the persistent speculation surrounding his health.
