Justin Bieber addresses inner turmoil, admits anger issues after tense Malibu paparazzi confrontation

Justin Bieber has opened up about his ongoing battle with anger and emotional exhaustion. His candid confession came through an Instagram post shared just days after an intense face-off with paparazzi in Malibu.

In a heartfelt message to his followers, Bieber acknowledged, “I know I am broken. I know I have anger issues.” The singer revealed he has spent years trying to become someone others expected him to be, only to feel more frustrated and emotionally drained in the process.

The post follows a viral video showing Bieber engaged in a nearly 11-minute confrontation with photographers outside his car. The singer was visibly upset and was seen shouting at the paparazzi for invading his space. The incident sparked concern among fans and raised fresh questions about the pressure Bieber faces in the public eye.

In his note, Bieber also wrote, “People keep telling me to heal. Don’t you think if I could have fixed myself, I would have already?” He added that his focus on self-improvement had ironically made him more tired and more angry. He further stated, “The harder I try to grow, the more focused on myself I am. Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others. Because honestly, I am exhausted with thinking about myself lately, aren’t you?” The singer’s post came after another heated moment — this time with a close friend — where he was accused of “lashing out.” In response, Bieber wrote, “I will never suppress my emotions for someone.”

Sources close to the couple have also pointed toward personal tension in his life. Reports suggest that his marriage to Rhode founder Hailey Bieber may be under strain, with claims of jealousy and emotional distance between them. While Bieber's honesty has resonated with many, it also reflects the emotional turmoil that continues to shape his public and private life.
