Rumors of Justin Bieber’s drug use have plagued the internet for years. However, they’ve been especially rampant in recent months due to his repeated public outbursts. From intense confrontations with the paparazzi to bizarre social media posts, Bieber has fans worried he’s not doing well. Now, their concerns have increased with his latest Instagram videos showing him partying hard with friends. “Why are you so wasted?” one fan asked Bieber after seeing the clips.
New Justin Bieber Instagram Videos Concern Fans
Justin Bieber and his friends appeared to have gone to a bar for a fun night out over the weekend. One video shows the pop star sitting at a table surrounded by about 15 members of his innermost circle. Bieber is wearing a pink hoodie and a white beanie as he sings along to Australian singer Eddie Benjamin’s “Maniac” in an impromptu karaoke session. He got so into the song that he repeatedly slammed the table while bobbing his head back and forth and closing his eyes. A few of his friends did the same while enjoying some drinks. While most of the people surrounding Bieber were guys, a few girls were hanging out with him, too. However, his wife, Hailey Bieber, didn’t appear to be one of them.
A second video posted on Justin Bieber’s Instagram page shows the group continuing their karaoke session by jamming out to his new song “All I Can Take.” The track is featured on Bieber’s seventh studio album, Swag, which he just dropped on July 11. In the Instagram video, Bieber is seen leaning back on a restaurant booth as he belts his song’s lyrics while his friend and Disney Channel star Kyle Massey films him.
Are Some Fans Overreacting?
After watching the clips of Justin Bieber partying with friends, fans grew concerned he may have been “wasted” and “on drugs” since he was making so much noise at the bar. They thought he appeared off and assumed he must have been using substances. “Wtf is Bieber doing?” one person asked. “Justin really went downhill,” another fan commented. This comes following months of rumors over Justin Bieber’s drug use. (His rep previously denied the claims, but that hasn’t stopped fans from assuming the worst.)
Meanwhile, someone criticized his “disrespectful behavior” for causing such a disturbance at the restaurant. They felt sorry for nearby guests and staff that had to wait on him and his friends. Most of all, they felt sympathetic toward Hailey Bieber for having to put up with his “childish” behavior. Since he has a wife and kid, fans criticized Bieber for not acting like a responsible adult.
However, not everyone found a problem with his Instagram videos. Some fans thought he deserved to have a fun night out with friends. While he may have enjoyed a few drinks, they didn’t see anything wrong with it. “Looks like a nice time,” read one comment. “This is living,” read another.
The singer’s latest posts come just weeks after he surprised fans by making his music comeback with Swag. The album, which marked his first record in four years, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. It charted right behind Travis Scott’s Jackboys 2.
