Justin Bieber’s surprise Coachella performance sent his fans, who’ve been clamoring for him to go on tour or release new music, into a total frenzy. However, the excitement about Bieber’s surprise comeback didn’t exactly do much to distract the internet from Bieber’s super casual, grunge-inspired look, and some of the conclusions they’ve drawn have been less than flattering. The mild end of the spectrum had fans from The Shade Room joking about Bieber’s double life. “I feel like Bieber has a second job in the warehouse basement and we interrupting him with these concerts,” joked one fan.
And while some fans expressed worry about Bieber’s health, another compared him to the late Aaron Carter. “Justin Bieber is giving Aaron Carter …. Hollywood really ruins ppl… he literally looks homeless,” wrote the fan. Unfortunately, several more fans speculated about whether or not Bieber was using substances. “I hope he is doing okay…. The dr**s [are] making him look unwell,” commented one fan underneath Bieber’s Instagram. Ultimately, most of the comments were supportive, such as one urging fans to be positive. “I’m sooooo happy for Justin especially with all he’s been battling health wise. I’m just happy to see him doing what he passionate bout. NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS NEEDED,” wrote the fan.
Despite the concern, there’s no evidence to suggest that Bieber, who’s spoken openly about his history of substance use, is using again or going through a health crisis.
