Hailey Bieber recently took to social media to defend her husband, Justin Bieber, after he surprised fans with his seventh studio album, “Swag,” on Friday morning. The “Peaches” singer, 31, released the album and its tracklist just hours after announcing it, catching many off guard.
“Swag” Album Details
The new album features a lineup of guest artists, including Gunna, Sexxy Red, Druski, Dijon, Lil B, Cash Cobain, Eddie Benjamin, and Marvin Winans. Leading up to the release, billboards featuring a black-and-white photo of a shirtless Justin with the word “Swag” appeared in major cities like Iceland, Atlanta, New York City, and Los Angeles.
Hailey’s Fiery Social Media Response
Hailey, founder of Rhode, re-posted images of the billboards on her Instagram Story, adding a pointed message: “Is it finally clocking to you fking losers?” This comment referenced a viral incident a few weeks prior where Justin confronted paparazzi. During that heated exchange, he passionately stated, “I’m a dad, I’m a husband, you’re not getting it. I don’t give a f if you’re on the sidewalk, I’m a human fing being, you’re standing around my car at the beach.” He continued, “You don’t think I’m a real fking guy, do you? You’re going to take this video out of context, you’re going to say I’m mad. I don’t know who the f*** is paying you to provoke me, but I’m not the f*ing one.” He concluded the now-famous moment by adding, “It’s not clocking to you that I’m standing on business.“
Fan Concerns Amidst Justin’s Recent Social Media Activity
This recent string of events comes amidst growing fan concern for Justin’s mental well-being and his marriage to Hailey. Recently, Justin posted 10 seemingly random updates to social media in a single day, showcasing him and Hailey on a lakeside trip with their 10-month-old son, Jack Blues. The posts included pictures of Hailey with pickleball paddles, baby Jack near a football and crawling, and scenic shots, all while carefully avoiding showing Jack’s face. One photo depicted Jack’s hand next to 28-year-old Hailey’s.
Instead of captions, Justin used only a few standing man emojis. While the couple, who have been married for six years since their 2018 wedding, appeared to be presenting a united front, these posts — including one showing a reflection of Justin’s face on a phone — sparked worry among followers. Comments like “Hope you’re okay,” “Justin, have you gone crazy or what?,” and “It’s heartbreaking to see him like this specially being a fan since he was like 14. Justin leave social media and work on yourself. It’s hard and long process but trust me with all the support you have you will get through this. Count your blessings” flooded his page.
