Justin Bieber isn’t holding back anymore, not even when the concern seems to come from someone calling themselves Grandpa. The pop star recently hit back at growing speculation about his mental health, offering a curt, four-word response that’s now making the rounds online. It all started on May 21, when a popular meme account shared a screenshot of a text from a person named Grandpa, expressing concern for the singer’s emotional state. The message simply read, “I am worried about Justin Bieber.”

The next day, a follow-up message appeared, saying, “There is so much heartbreak in Justin’s life.” The sentiment seemed heartfelt, and even the caption accompanying the post echoed the worry: “We all are.” But Bieber wasn’t here for the sympathy parade. His comment, which was spotted by the Instagram account Comments by Celebs on June 10, was sharp and straightforward: “Worry about yourself gramps.” His reply, short as it was, sparked conversations across social media. Some fans appreciated his attempt to shut down what they saw as invasive commentary. Others Instagram user felt Justin’s response instead reflected his deeper frustration, which is just under the surface and waiting to burst.
The exchange comes at a time when Bieber’s personal life, particularly his health and relationship with wife Hailey Bieber, has been the subject of intense public scrutiny. From cryptic Instagram posts to withdrawn public appearances, fans and media alike have been trying to decode the singer’s state of mind.
Just a few days ago, on June 8, Bieber shared a thought-provoking note to his Instagram Story, saying he was tired of relationships that felt like a transaction. “If I have to do something just to be loved, that’s not real love,” he wrote. Back in February, eyebrows were raised when Justin Bieber was seen behaving erratically at Hailey’s Rhode pop-up event. Speculation swirled, with some even suggesting substance abuse, though his reps swiftly shut down those rumours, calling them harmful and false.
For the unversed, Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber also welcomed their second child, Jack, in 2024.
