Justin Bieber Reportedly Planning Music Comeback As He ‘Needs The Money’

Justin Bieber is reportedly gearing up for a musical comeback in 2025, just four months after welcoming his new baby with wife Hailey Bieber.

According to sources, the singer is eager to return to making music and performing as he “needs the money” amid reports of financial troubles.

Justin Bieber, who has parted ways with his long-time manager, Scooter Braun, is said to be considering legal action against his former business managers for allegedly squandering his fortune.

Justin Bieber is considering returning to the music industry after halting his career in 2022 to prioritize his health.

The singer has not released any major project since his 2021 album “Justice,” and things further deteriorated after he revealed he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in 2023, which forced him to cancel his highly anticipated “Justice World Tour.”

In a column making entertainment predictions for 2025, sources told Puck News’ Matthew Belloni in his What I’m Hearing newsletter Friday that the global pop sensation could resuscitate his career as he “needs the money and wants to work.”

The publication reports that Bieber “still owes” the touring company AEG “a ton for his canceled tour, among other pop star expenses.”

To aid his comeback, he is now being represented by lawyer Michael Rhodes, who has represented Madonna and members of the Kardashian family in the past.

Bieber was forced to cancel his last tour, citing health reasons. He disclosed in an Instagram update that he’d been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, which left one side of his face temporarily paralyzed as his right eye was unable to blink.

“Hey everyone Justin here, I wanted to update you guys on what’s been going on,” he began, per the Daily Mail. “Obviously as you can probably see with my face. I have this syndrome called Ramsay Hunt syndrome and it is from this virus that attacks the nerves in my ear and my facial nerves and has caused my face to have paralysis.”

He later posted a sad update on his Instagram Story: “Been getting progressively harder to eat which has been extremely frustrating, please pray for me [tearing up emoji].”

If the reports of a music comeback are anything to go by, Bieber would be working with a new lineup of staff, having ended things with longtime manager Scooter Braun.

This follows reports that emerged late last year suggesting the “Sorry” singer may have to return to touring to earn some money and pay his bills.

Although he sold his music catalog for $200 million in January 2023 to Hipgnosis Songs Capital, Bieber was said to be having financial troubles as he made no money after pausing his career but maintained his extravagant lifestyle.

According to The Sun, the 30-year-old singer was hit with a $380,349 bill for unpaid property taxes on his $16.6 million home near the exclusive Madison Club in Coachella Valley last October.

Official records showed that half of the amount was due by 12 October and the other half by April 10 this year.

According to TMZ, Bieber believes his business managers grossly mismanaged his money for years and is now considering suing them.

Sources informed the outlet that the singer believes he “lost a ton of money as a result of terrible decisions made by business managers,” although the amount he believes has been wasted was not disclosed.

They also hinted that the mismanagement was not over a short period, as Bieber has been “very upset for several years” over their financial decisions.

However, his decision to file a lawsuit against the alleged offenders appears to be stalled because some of his team members have advised him not to.

Aside from his alleged financial troubles, Bieber was hit with rumors of a breakup with his wife, Hailey.

However, a source disclosed that their marriage is stronger than ever after welcoming their son, Jack, in August of last year.

“There has been a total shift in their marriage since renewing their vows [in May 2024] and welcoming baby Jack,” the insider told Us Weekly. “He’s truly brought them so much happiness and a renewed bond.”

The source also shared that fatherhood has the singer in “a good place mentally,” leaving him “obsessed” with his son, while Hailey’s “main priority is being a mom right now.”

The couple reportedly have no intention to add to their family at this time, with the source noting that their philosophy when it comes to family planning is that it’s “up to ‘God’s plan.'”
