'Quit asking me if I'm okay': Justin Bieber ruthlessly cuts off unnamed friend in angry text exchange; fans slam his ‘toxic' behaviour
Justin Bieber, the pop icon, is once again making headlines and is back with a series of bizarre posts on his social media and that too, on his first Father's Day. On June 15, Sunday, the 'STAY' singer shared a series of cryptic posts on his Instagram, and the most recent one is a couple of screenshots of a confrontational text message exchange with an unidentified friend who accused him of 'lashing out'. The post has raised concerns among fans.
According to the screenshots posted via Instagram on Sunday evening, the pop star wrote, 'I will never suppress my emotions for someone." "Conflict is part of relationship. If you don't like my anger, you don't like me," he added.
The 31-year-old singer welcomed his son, Jack Blues Bieber, with wife Hailey Bieber in August 2024, and he marked the occasion of Father's Day with a series of photos and eyebrow-raising captions. 'I'm a dad that's not to be f--ked with 🖕,' Bieber wrote alongside pictures of himself with a middle finger emoji. Following this post, a pop singer shared the chat screenshot.
Justin Bieber cuts off friendship with an unnamed friend
While in another post about chatting with an unnamed friend, Justin went to mention in the post that his anger is a response to pain that he has been through, and asking a traumatised person not to be traumatised is just mean, the post added.
The controversial text messages continued between the duo, and responding to his friend, the singer said, 'I'm not used to someone lashing out at me. It's not that I don't see and feel your anger.'
While the unnamed friend fired back by saying, 'Ouch' the friendship is officially over now, and he/she will never accept a man calling their anger lashing out.
The Grammy winner also noted that he enjoyed the short-lived relationship, and he wasn't joking when he told the unnamed friend that he didn't need that person as a friend. 'Good friends who will respect [his] boundaries," Bieber said.
'Quit asking me if I'm okay'
In the series of photos, the 'Sorry' singer shared images of himself and wrote, "Made it home from a lil date night getaway," and went on to show off his new purchases that included a diamond-studded watch and a new luxury sports car and captioned the post saying, "Happy daddy day to me u lil ho."
However, the series of posts did not stop there; Justin's last story on his Instagram says, 'Quit asking me if I'm okay,' he wrote on top. 'Quit asking me how I'm doing. I don't do that to you because I know how hard life is for all of us."
'It's hard. Letss [sic] encourage our people not project our insecurities onto one another.'
Redditors react to Justin Bieber's chat screenshots
As soon as the post surfaced on social media, it quickly grabbed the attention of fans on Reddit, and it became a major topic of discussion on the platform.
One said, "He seems like a manipulative, abusive POS. The 'bad stuff happened to me, so I'm allowed to be as horrible to others as I want!!' kind. How awful. Good luck to his wife and child."
While another wrote, "A beautiful example of why you don't rush to have children with someone you just met. And I qualify "just met" as less than 4-5 years."
"Crazy narcissism. Everyone has to treat and accept me as a man baby. Otherwise you're a pussy?"
One wrote, 'Grown ass man, hundred millionaire, known wife abuser, throwing a fit because someone pushed back on his toxic behavior and people out here feeling "sad" for him. We're never making it out the patriarchy.'
"God, this attitude is terrifying to see on someone with a baby. Kids can push your buttons SO MUCH just because it's their nature as they start testing how they interact with the world, and you need to have at least a basic ability to not respond with hostility and aggression."

Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal celebrate first wedding anniversary after 8 years of love
Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal are celebrating their first wedding anniversary, marking a significant milestone in their relationship. After nearly eight years together, the couple secretly got married in a private ceremony a year ago. Until shortly before their marriage, their relationship was largely kept out of the public eye. The Rowdy Rathore actress shared a heartfelt message for her husband in honor of the special day. She said they had been dating for eight years before getting married, and it has been a year since they were married. She was pleased that Zaheer remained the same person she had fallen in love with after they were married. The actress posted a joyful picture of herself and Zaheer together, both of them laughing widely. They celebrate their first year as husband and wife by holding up one finger in the photo. The actress posted "Happy Anniversary" on her Instagram story. "To my boyfriend of 8 years and husband of 1. (Thank God it's the same person)." At Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal's house, celebrations have already begun. She provided a brief glimpse of the home setup in another Instagram story. Zaheer was spotted seated in front of a cute decor. She also showed her in-laws how much she loved and respected them. 'Best in-laws in the world. First he gave me this guy, then so much love," she remarked Sonakshi Sinha previously revealed on Kareena Kapoor 's chat show What Women Want that she expressed to Zaheer Iqbal her feelings within a week of their first meeting. She described it as love at first sight and claimed to have felt a deep connection from the start. 'I told Zaheer I love you just a week after meeting him. I was very excited. But I don't know; there was some kind of recognition, like a spark. You know how sometimes you just feel that this person is meant for you? That's what happened to me. I had never felt that way before. I usually take my time with such things, but with him, it was instant. I got serious much earlier than he did. But boys usually take a little more time. And he seems like one of those guys who takes his time. He's not exactly shy, but I would say that he was at a stage where he knew that if he took this step, it would be for life; it would be permanent," she said. In terms of her career, Sonakshi Sinha is scheduled to feature in the film Nikita Roy, which is directed by her brother, Kush Sinha. Alongside Paresh Rawal, Arjun Rampal, and Suhail Nayyar , the movie is scheduled for release on June 27.
