Justin Bieber Blasts His ‘Jealous’ Critics In Religious Post

In a lengthy post shared on his Instagram stories, the singer slammed his haters, writing that “hurt people hurt people.”

This comes as Justin Bieber’s circle continues to shrink after his close pal Ryan Good reportedly severed ties with him over worries about the singer’s “cult-like” church.

Justin had some choice words for individuals who criticize him as she shared a post online claiming that people dislike him due to his affluence and fame.

The singer started by talking about forgiveness, writing, “That feeling of guilt can be relieved. How? Not by going to church or reading [your] bible, but just receive that god forgives. The MESSAGE is FORGIVENESS.”

Justin continued, “They treat me like a-s out here, but if I remember that I am flawed too and god forgave me, it helps me to stop feeling better than those people who are mean and hurtful. Because when I’m really honest, I can be mean and hurtful too.”

“My instinct is to be like damn I wouldnt gossip and spread lies about someone on the internet but there’s other sh-t I do I’m not proud of,” he added.

Justin then concluded with a pointed remark at his critics: “Hurt people hurt people. And honestly, if I was [you], it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going brazzzzyy, It’s really up for us, and that’s understandable why people can’t stand it, I don’t blame [them].”

Justin’s latest remarks come after it was revealed that he was exhausted by what he perceives as the constant scrutiny and negative interpretation of his actions, particularly in light of recent criticism he suffered after he was seen smoking in the presence of his younger brother Jaxon.

In a clip that went viral on social media, Justin smoked what appeared to be weed, sparking concerns among fans for his “rough” appearance during week 2 of Coachella 2025.

According to People Magazine, an insider shared that he’s “tired” of people “weaponizing” his actions into “something bad.”

“Yes, he smokes weed like everyone else. But everything he does is being weaponized against him,” a source told the news outlet on Tuesday, explaining the pop star was “having fun” and “vibing.”

“It’s not like his son, Jack, is at these events. And his brother’s a teenager,” the source noted. “Justin’s dad came into town to bring [Jaxon] to Coachella after he saw how much fun Justin and Hailey had the first weekend.”

“Look on his socials, he had an amazing time,” the insider added. “They’re just tired of people turning everything into something bad.”

The source went further to squash split rumors between Justin and Hailey. Split rumors have plagued the couple’s marriage, and they have not helped quell the speculations after seemingly unfollowing each other on Instagram at some point.

Justin, however, claimed his account was “hacked,” while Hailey said hers was caused by a “glitch.”

“Hailey is not on the verge of wanting a divorce or leaving him,” the insider claimed. “It’s just completely untrue. If anything she’s sad about how hard everyone is being on him now that he finally is coming back out of his shell.”

However, another source said the Rhode founder has “been in tears” over Justin’s recent behavior.

“Things have gotten bad quickly,” the insider said. “She’s genuinely scared something bad is going to happen to Justin.”

Nevertheless, Hailey is said to be “very loyal” to her husband. “She’s not walking away, but she knows something has to change,” the source noted.

Justin’s circle continues to shrink as reports confirm his former associate Ryan Good has severed ties with him for over a year.

Good, who was the creative director behind Justin’s popular fashion brand Drew House and also served as the best man at his wedding, has not been on speaking terms with him since leaving the “Peaches” singer’s Churchome in Beverly Hills, the church where Justin still worships, with Judah Smith as the pastor.

According to TMZ, sources shared that Good felt Churchome was like a “cult,” so he left, and the fact that Justin added Smith to his fashion brand’s Board a few years ago, despite the fact that Good didn’t get along with him, didn’t help matters at all.

The insider described the move as “weird” because Smith is more of a pastor than a businessman. However, sources close to Smith say he has no problem with Good and wishes him well.

In past months, Justin sparked fan concern after a series of public appearances where he looked disheveled.

Rumors started spreading that he’s using “hard drugs,” especially after he was seen swaying side to side at Hailey’s Rhode skincare event in Los Angeles in February.

However, a rep for the “Never Say Never” singer told TMZ that the rumors are “absolutely not true” and that Justin is starting to feel drained by the rumors that he is struggling with his mental and physical health.

“The recurring narrative that Justin is using hard drugs is absolutely not true,” the rep told the news outlet, adding that his client is actually “in one of the best places in his life.”
