Justin Bieber shares pictures that raise concerns about his well-being
Canadian pop star Justin Bieber is not afraid to put himself out there in the public eye, showcasing his vulnerability and emotions. His recently shared series of pictures showcases the same. Bieber decided to do a photo dump on his social media on Saturday with pictures of him smiling, crying, and singing on stage, and in a hut in the middle of a forest.
What has now caught the most attention amongst those pictures is his picture, in which Bieber can be seen crying. He wore a light green bucket hat and a white zip-up sweatshirt, his eyes tearing up. His fans instantly took it to his comment section to ask the singer if he was doing okay or not. A series of comments asking if there was something bothering him or going on started to fill up his comment section. A fan on X pointed out,
“Justin Bieber’s good friend and old roommate rapper, Chris King, just died. I believe that is why he was crying in this photo.”
This claim led fans to remember that Bieber had shared a heartfelt tribute for his late friend after he passed away on Saturday. Chris King was gunned down in an alleyway in Nashville, Tennessee, while he was hanging out with his friends. Bieber took to his social media story and wrote,
“Love you, bro. This one hurts. Please keep his family in your prayers. See you in paradise, brother.”
