Justin Bieber spoke out about growing up in the spotlight in a disturbing interview in 2020 in which he said he didn’t want anyone else to ‘go through what I’ve been through’

Justin Bieber broke down in tears four years ago as he recalled his disturbing “encounters” in the music industry.

The 30-year-old, who is yet to speak out about his former mentor P Diddy’s arrest and subsequent incarceration following sex trafficking charges against the rapper, shot to fame as a teenager.

However, despite becoming an overnight success and amassing millions of adoring fans around the world, Justin said the reality was quite different as he gave advice to a then 18-year-old, Billie Eilish, who was just breaking into the music industry.

In an interview in 2020 with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, the Baby star was in tears talking about his experiences as a 15-year-old pop star, saying he wanted to protect Billie as she started out on her journey.
