Beliebers are growing increasingly concerned with each new update about Justin Bieber. Over the weekend, the singer was caught in a tense moment outside Soho House in Malibu, where he had a visibly emotional interaction with paparazzi. The clip, now going viral, shows Justin shouting at photographers and pleading with them to “leave [him] the fuck alone” — a reaction that’s totally understandable, considering these bitches relentlessly stalk him. (For the life of me, I don’t understand why this man still lives in Los Angeles, aka Pap Central.) This video comes just a few months after Justin lost it at Coachella cameramen.
Between Justin’s frequent, heated run-ins with paparazzi, his truly bizarre social media activity, and the persistent rumors about his marriage to Hailey Bieber, fans have good reason to be worried about the singer’s well-being. Is the “Yummy” singer okay? Here’s what Justin Bieber said in the concerning new paparazzi video.
Outside of Soho House on June 13, Justin was firm with the paps. “We’re gonna set boundaries here today,” he said. “I’m not afraid to set boundaries.” I fear he’s tried to ~set boundaries~ a bazillion times before, and it’s clearly never worked. Paps in LA are gonna be paps in LA, unfortunately.
“I’m a real dad, a real husband, a real man,” he told the cameramen as his two bodyguards stood beside him. “You don’t get to talk to me today. You don’t get to ask me questions. We’re not buddies.” He repeated, “No, no, no…” several times.

Throughout the video, the singer gets more and more agitated. He warned, “I’m not going to be backed into a corner, not tonight,” adding, “Stop provoking me. Don’t fucking do this sh*t to me. I’m not to be fucked with…leave me the fuck alone.” Still, the paps continued to stay put and film him.
In the part of the video that’s going viral, Justin uses an unintentionally funny combination of Gen Z lingo. “It’s not clocking to you that I’m standing on business,” he yells. Needless to say, memes with that sentence are taking over the internet… probably not the result Justin was hoping for in that intense moment.
“I’m a human fucking being standing around my car at the beach,” he says in the clip. “Not me today bro. How do you think it’s going with you in my fucking face? Get out of my fucking face!”
In a June 16 Instagram post, Justin appeared to address the ongoing discourse about his anger issues and current state. “People keep telling me to heal,” he wrote in a grid post. “Don’t you think if I could’ve fixed myself I would’ve tried already? I know I’m broken. I know I have anger issues.” Justin explained that he’s “tried to do the work” his whole life. “Honestly I’m exhausted with thinking about myself lately, aren’t you?” he finished his message to fans.

The pap video and the IG post are both heartbreaking… Wishing Justin all the best. I hope he’s getting the love and support he needs right now.
