Justin Bieber Details Hidden ‘Wounds’ From Fame, Credits Faith for Healing and Calls for Music Industry Reform

He pairs an account of early-career harm with a pledge to seek transformation through forgiveness.

Overview

  • In Instagram posts on December 24, Bieber reflected on his rise in a system that “rewarded my gift but didn’t always protect my soul.”
  • He wrote that he at times felt “used, rushed, shaped into something I didn’t fully choose,” leaving “wounds you don’t see on stage.”
  • Bieber said he has found restoration through Jesus, describing a shift from anger to forgiveness shaped by his faith.
  • He rejected revenge and urged change, stating he does not want to “burn the music industry down” but hopes to see it “made new — safer, more honest, more human.”
  • The posts included selfies and family holiday photos featuring his son Jack Blues, as coverage also noted tabloid speculation about strain in his marriage without confirmed statements from Hailey Bieber.
