Justin Bieber Speaks About Feeling ‘Unworthy’ After Sparking Fan Concerns
Justin Bieber has opened up about experiencing self-doubt and imposter syndrome, admitting he often feels unworthy of his success.
The singer’s emotional post comes amid growing fan concerns over his health and disheveled appearances, including viral videos and photos of him smoking from a bong.
Despite speculation, Justin Bieber’s rep has denied drug use rumors, stating that he is focused on fatherhood and music.
Bieber recently took to Instagram Stories to open up about his personal struggles, addressing growing concerns from fans about his well-being.
In his heartfelt reflection, Bieber admitted that despite years of being told he “deserves” his success, he has never truly felt worthy of it.
“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,” he confessed. “It made me feel sneaky like, damn if they only knew my thoughts. How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am… They wouldn’t be saying this.”
The singer concluded his post, writing, “I say all this to say, if you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days.”
Bieber’s rise to fame began at just 15 when he was discovered on YouTube, leading to a record deal with Usher’s label.
His debut single, “Baby,” dropped in 2010, launching him into global superstardom. He has since gone on to become one of the best-selling artists of all time.
Bieber’s candid post follows recent public appearances that left fans worried, particularly after he was seen looking disheveled and smoking from a bong on social media.
In some photos shared on Instagram, the singer was seen sitting on an e-bike while “Hits From The Bong” by Cypress Hill played in the background.
The images quickly sparked reactions, with many social media users voicing their opinions in the comments.
Bieber is said to be focused on “actively parenting his newborn son,” Jack Blues, whom he welcomed in August with his wife, Hailey Bieber, and working on making new music.
The rep added that Bieber has endured a “very transformative” past year, in which “he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.”
