Justin Bieber has left fans increasingly worried after sharing a series of photos on Instagram that appear to show him using a bong, raising concerns about his well-being. 

Adding fuel to the speculation, the singer was also spotted without his wedding ring, sparking fresh rumors about trouble in his marriage to Hailey Bieber.

The 31-year-old pop star posted six nearly identical images on Monday night, featuring himself smoking from a clear glass bong. In the photos,

he sits on a bike, dressed in a hooded sweatshirt layered with a navy and purple jacket, paired with loose-fitting black trousers and light brown boots.

Behind him, several quad bikes can be seen, suggesting an outdoor setting.

If there were any doubts about the subject of his post, Justin made it clear by choosing the song “Hits from the Bong” by Cypress Hill to play in the background.

The images show him lighting the bong and exhaling thick clouds of smoke, making it apparent that he was highlighting his marijuana use. While Justin appeared content with his post, many of his fans were not pleased and took to the comments section to express their concerns.

One follower questioned his actions by writing, “Jesus freed you from that, bro, why are you going back to that?” Another fan criticized the singer, saying, “Aren’t you in your 30s? This is a post a 14-year-oldwould make. Man up and be a DAD.” A third person echoed similar sentiments, commenting, “At least do it discreetly, such a bad role model for your son and fans.”

Concerns about Justin’s behavior have been heightened by his past struggles with substance abuse. He has been open about his history of addiction, previously revealing that he began using marijuana at the young age of “12 or 13.” Over time, his substance use escalated to “pretty heavy drugs,” which, combined with the pressures of fame, led him to self-medicate with alcohol. In his docuseries “Justin Bieber: Seasons,” he admitted that his drug use became so severe that he feared for his life, prompting him to seek sobriety by 2021.

Fans were particularly troubled by his latest post because he and Hailey Bieber recently became parents to their first child, son Jack Blues, in August last year.

Many worried that Justin’s behavior might affect his ability to be a responsible father. One concerned commenter wrote, “I hope Jack doesn’t have to be around all this smoke. A kid doesn’t deserve it.” Another person criticized the singer, saying, “Get off the drugs and raise your son.”

Adding to the controversy, Justin has been posting more content related to drug use in recent days, including videos of himself smoking and rapping about being high.

This has only fueled speculation that he may be struggling with substance use again. Despite the growing concern among fans, Justin’s representatives have denied any claims that he is abusing harder substances.

In response to the rumors, a spokesperson for the singer firmly shut down speculation, stating that he is not using hard drugs.

Speaking to a media outlet, the representative explained that Justin is actually in “one of the best places in his life” and dismissed the rumors as “absolutely not true.”

They emphasized that he has undergone significant personal growth over the past year, making positive changes in his life by ending close friendships and business relationships that were no longer beneficial to him.

The spokesperson also addressed the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Justin’s mental and physical health, labeling it “exhausting and pitiful.” They expressed frustration at the way people continue to focus on negative narratives about the singer despite evidence suggesting otherwise.

While Justin appears to be brushing off the criticism, fans remain divided over his recent behavior. Some argue that he has the right to make his own choices, while others believe he should be more mindful of his image and responsibilities, particularly as a father.



As speculation continues to swirl about his marriage and personal life, neither Justin nor Hailey has publicly commented on the recent rumors. For now, fans are left wondering whether his latest posts are simply harmless fun or a sign of deeper issues that need to be addressed.
