Justin Bieber cops to ‘anger issues’ after paparazzi showdown: ‘I know I’m broken’

Justin Bieber admitted to having “anger issues” and being “broken” days after he confronted the paparazzi in a wild screaming match.

“People keep telling me to heal don’t you think if I could have fixed myself I would have already?” the pop star wrote on his Instagram Stories Monday.

“I know I’m broken. I know I have anger issues. I tried to do the work my whole life to be like the people who told me [I] needed to be fixed like them. And it just keeps making more tired and more angry,” he added.

Bieber, 31, said the “harder” he tries “to grow,” the more focused he becomes on himself.

“Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others because honestly I’m exhausted with thinking about myself lately aren’t you?” he concluded.

The “Baby” singer’s message comes four days after he got into an 11-minute expletive-filled argument with the paparazzi while leaving Soho House Malibu in California Thursday night.

“Not me today bro,” he told the photographers while holding his arm over his face. “How do you think it’s going with you in my f–king face? Get out of my f–king face!”

Though Bieber’s security team urged the paparazzi to move away from the musician’s vehicle, they continued to film his outburst.

“Stop asking me how it’s going. Get out of here,” the musician pleaded before telling the photogs that he’s “not afraid to set boundaries.”

“I’m a real man with a real family,” he said, referring to his and wife Hailey Bieber’s 9-month-old son, Jack Blues.

“And you’re really in front of my face.”

Fans have expressed concern for Justin in recent months as he has displayed bizarre behavior online and in real life.

In February, the two-time Grammy winner’s rep denied “harmful” allegations of drug use, telling TMZ that the ongoing rumors about Justin’s physical and mental health were “exhausting and pitiful” and showed that “despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”

The spokesperson said the singer has been in a good place with Hailey, 28, since they welcomed their son in August 2024.

Despite the rep’s denial, Justin has been seen smoking joints on multiple occasions, including at Coachella, where he lit up while standing next to his 15-year-old brother, Jaxon.

Justin has also posted several cryptic posts, including one declaring that he was not a “dad that’s not to be f–ked with” and images of a text conversation he had with a friend he ruthlessly cut off on Father’s Day 2025 Sunday.

The “Never Say Never” singer is reportedly also facing financial issues, owing his former manager, Scooter Braun, more than $8 million for a tour loan and blowing money on private jets and pricey gifts.
