Justin Bieber is shutting down rumors that he’s using hard drugs, saying he’s just enjoying life. A rep for Bieber told TMZ that the claims are completely false. Instead, Justin is focused on parenting his newborn son with Hailey, working on new music, and looking forward to his 31st birthday.
The rep also said Justin has gone through a transformative year, cutting ties with certain friends and business associates that no longer benefited him. His priorities are now centered on supporting his family, staying healthy, and creating music.
Recent concerns about his appearance—like red eyes and dark circles—were reportedly due to a lack of sleep from working late in the studio and caring for his baby. A video of him at a Rhode pop-up event also sparked speculation, but sources say he was just having a fun moment with a fan.
Although Justin has been open about past struggles with drugs and alcohol, he has been sober since 2014, aside from drinking socially.
His team is frustrated with the ongoing speculation, calling it “exhausting and pitiful,” insisting that Justin is doing well and wants to move past these rumors.
