Justin Bieber’s behavior is back in the headlines, and not for the reasons you’d hope, the pop star showed up during the second weekend of Coachella 2025, and instead of the usual stage-stealing energy, fans saw something else entirely. Videos quickly started flying around social media, showing Bieber looking spaced-out, low energy, and noticeably thinner.
The clips, which now have millions of views, show Bieber barely engaging with the crowd or the performances. To fans, it didn’t look like he was just vibing, it looked like he wasn’t really present. And while his team insists he’s doing fine, the footage paints a different picture.
Let’s be real, this isn’t the first time people have expressed concern over Justin Bieber’s mental state. He’s spoken out in the past about his struggles with addiction, depression, and the pressures of growing up in the spotlight. He’s credited his Christian faith and wife Hailey Bieber for keeping him grounded. But something about this latest public appearance has fans sounding the alarm again.
Adding fuel to the fire? The timing. Selena Gomez, Bieber’s ex and someone deeply tied to his personal history, is engaged to music producer Benny Blanco.
And while everyone’s acting like it’s no big deal, fans can’t help but notice that Gomez is on the rise while Bieber seems to be retreating from the spotlight more and more. Also, he recently became a dad, something that should be a high point, but people are wondering if it’s adding pressure behind the scenes.
Of course, all of this is speculation. No one outside of Bieber’s inner circle knows what’s really going on. But his behavior at Coachella didn’t scream “I’m good.” It screamed, “Something’s not right.” And in this age of social media hyper-awareness, it doesn’t take long for fans to put two and two together, or at least try.
