Justin Bieber is getting real about imposter syndrome.
“People told me my whole life ‘wow Justin you deserve that’ and I personally have always felt unworthy,” the superstar singer wrote overnight in an Instagram Story.
“Like I was a fraud,” he wrote. “Like when people told me I deserve something. It made me feels sneaky like damn if they only knew my thoughts.”

Suggestions to the contrary about his mental and physical health, the rep added, are “exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.”
Bieber – who rose to fame at 15 with his 2010 hit Baby – has been public about past health issues, including his mental health struggles, dealing with temporary facial paralysis in 2023 due to Ramsay Hunt syndrome and a Lyme disease diagnosis in 2020.
