Pop icon Justin Bieber has spoken out about how he feels “unworthy” via Fox News.
On Thursday, the Grammy-winning pop star took to his Instagram story and dropped a message to his 294 million followers about his internal battle with not feeling worthy of the constant praise he receives.
“People told me my whole life, ‘Wow Justin u deserve that’ and I personally have always felt unworthy. Like I was a fraud. Like when people told me I deserve something, it made me feel sneaky,” he wrote.
“Like, damn, if they only knew my thoughts. How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am, they wouldn’t be saying this.”
Bieber explained the reason behind his message.
“If you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days.”
The message emerged after Bieber sparked health concerns among his fan base. Fans started weighing in on his well-being after he attended wife Hailey Bieber’s Rhode event in Los Angeles last month.
In a video that spread on TikTok, Bieber was seen with a huge grin on his face and rocking side-to-side while talking to attendees at the event.
“Are you sure that’s Justin Bieber?” one user asked.
Another added, “I refuse to believe this is Justin Bieber,” with a crying emoji.
“Is he okay?!” a user asked. Another chimed in, “This is so hard to watch. Someone help him.”
Following the speculation, Bieber’s team told TMZ concerns about Bieber’s mental and physical health are “exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
His team added that he is focused on being a father to his son Jack and producing new music. Hailey and Justin welcomed their first child in August.
