dailyloe.com – Justin Bieber made his return to the stage with a headline slot at Coachella on Saturday. This marked his first major live performance in four years. He had taken a step back from the spotlight after canceling a 2022 tour due to health issues. In 2023, he sold his music catalog for a reported $200 million.
That same year, Justin parted ways with his long-time manager Scooter Braun. His wife, Hailey Bieber, suggested the lead-up to Coachella was difficult. She wrote in an Instagram caption after the set about what it took to get there. She expressed gratitude and pride in his accomplishment.
His comeback has led people to look back at his career as a whole. Many have been horrified by resurfaced clips showing disturbing treatment. This treatment occurred when he was a minor child star.
Justin was just 12 years old when Scooter Braun discovered him via YouTube in 2007. He traveled to Atlanta to work with Scooter, who introduced him to major artists. Usher became his mentor during this time. When Justin was around 13, Usher introduced him to Diddy, who also served as a mentor.
Justin found astronomical child star success very quickly. By the time he turned 18, he had an estimated net worth of $100 million. He also had a plethora of awards and millions of devoted fans. He had a whole host of celebrity friends as well.
As teens were hit with ‘Bieber fever,’ so were some adults. The way young Justin was treated by these adults has come under repeated scrutiny. Compilation videos of these moments often go viral on social media. In these clips, Justin is subjected to wildly inappropriate behavior.
The underage singer voiced his discomfort on multiple occasions. For example, when Justin was a teenager, he faced unsettling situations with adults. The resurfaced footage shows clear instances of boundary crossing. These moments are now being widely discussed following his performance.
