Justin Bieber’s Inner Circle Shrinks Amid Concerns From Fans
Justin Bieber’s longtime personal assistant has reportedly quit, leaving the pop star’s inner circle significantly smaller.
Reports suggest that the singer has also let go of his bodyguards and drivers and has “ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.”
Justin Bieber has been sparking health concerns from fans after making a couple of public appearances where he looked gaunt and disheveled.
Bieber’s inner circle continues to take a hit amid concerns that the pop star is going through a rough patch and has started using harmful substances.
Bieber’s team has slowly been going through a complete overhaul since he parted ways with former manager Scooter Braun, with an insider telling the news outlet that his team is “tighter than ever.”
He has not been pictured with regular bodyguards Keith Gibbs and Eric Johnson in months, and fans subsequently noticed he has unfollowed security guard Kenny Hamilton.
Bieber is also no longer working with some of his other key team members, including Ryan Good, the creative director of his streetwear brand, Drew House, which he stopped promoting months ago.
The singer reportedly felt betrayed by Tristar for allegedly mismanaging his finances for years and quit working with them too.
He has since hired Edward White, who has worked with the likes of Johnny Depp, to manage his finances.
Amid his shrinking inner circle, Bieber has been embroiled in rumors of substance abuse after sparking health concerns from fans following a couple of public appearances where he was seen looking rough and disheveled.
After ringing in his 31st birthday last week with family and a few friends, the Canadian-born star took to Instagram to share a photo of him smoking from what appears to be a bong while sitting on an electric bike.
He also shared a shirtless video on Instagram in late February, where he was seen rapping about being high while munching on snacks.
A rep for Bieber recently downplayed rumors that he is using “hard drugs,” claiming that the singer is starting to feel drained by speculations that he is struggling with his mental and physical health.
