MUMBAI: Justin Bieber is once again making waves on social media following a surprising Instagram unfollow spree. After previously making headlines for accidentally unfollowing his wife, Hailey Bieber, which he quickly addressed, saying “Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife” the pop star has now unfollowed around 25 high-profile accounts, raising eyebrows among fans.
According to News Bytes, Justin cut ties with several industry friends, including his former collaborator Benny Blanco, who is now engaged to Justin’s ex, Selena Gomez. The two had previously worked together on hits like Eenie Meenie and Love Yourself.
In another unexpected move, Bieber unfollowed The Weeknd, who also shares history with Selena, as well as Canadian rapper Drake amid Drake’s ongoing feud with Kendrick Lamar. Fans were especially shocked to see him unfollow Sean “Diddy” Combs, his former mentor and longtime friend.
The spree didn’t stop there, Justin also unfollowed Vice President JD Vance, music producer Diplo, Scooter Braun’s SB Projects, and even distanced himself further by unfollowing Scooter Braun himself last month.
Naturally, fans flooded social media with speculations, questioning what led the 30-year-old singer to make such bold moves. While Justin has yet to comment on the reasons behind the mass unfollowing, the internet is already buzzing with theories.
