Justin Bieber is opening up—one sweaty selfie at a time.
The pop superstar took to Instagram on Sunday to share a series of close-up photos of his red, perspiring face, captioning the post simply: “Detoxxxxxxxxxxx.” Though he didn’t elaborate on the reason behind the detox, fans quickly flooded his comments with encouragement.
“The good one for you, partner! We all want to see you well,” wrote one supporter.
“Please stay healthy and happy,” added another.
“Love you, dude, keep pushin’,” said a third.
Bieber’s post arrives five months after his representative publicly denied swirling rumors about substance use, following concerns about the singer’s behavior. At the time, the rep told TMZ that such speculation was “exhausting and pitiful,” insisting that people were clinging to “negative, salacious, harmful narratives” despite evidence of Bieber’s growth.
Now 31, Bieber is reportedly in a more grounded place. According to his team, he’s been focusing on family life with wife Hailey Bieber and their son, Jack Blues, born in August 2024. The couple has maintained a relatively low profile since Jack’s arrival, though insiders say the past year has been a time of personal transformation for the two-time Grammy winner—marked by cutting ties with longtime friends and business partners who no longer served his well-being.
Still, Bieber’s public appearances—including moments where he’s been seen smoking marijuana at Coachella and on trips with friends—have continued to raise eyebrows. Behind the scenes, sources suggest that he and Hailey have also been navigating marital and financial pressures.
One source told Entertainment Tonight that the singer has been “irritated” with Hailey lately, accusing her of caring more about how their relationship appears to the public. Meanwhile, Hailey has reportedly been frustrated by what she sees as Justin’s lack of motivation.
Tensions have reportedly impacted how the couple co-parents their infant son. A separate insider told Us Weekly that Hailey has been “the stable parent and the one keeping the family together,” as Justin deals with what’s been described as a period of emotional turbulence.
“Justin’s been a hard person to deal with recently because of what he’s going through,” the source added. “It’s been really hard on her.”
Still, if his recent detox selfies are any indication, Bieber may be taking the first steps toward healing—and his fans are cheering him on every sweaty step of the way.
