Canadian singer Justin Bieber faces a complex financial situation in 2025, marked by million-dollar debts, disputes with his former manager and concerns about his emotional well-being.
An independent audit by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) revealed that Bieber owes more than $8.8 million to his former manager Scooter Braun, to whom he allegedly sold his music catalog.
Debts with Scooter Braun and tour cancellation
This debt comes from a loan granted in 2022 to cover losses derived from the cancellation of his “Justice World Tour”, which was suspended due to the singer’s health problems.
Although Bieber sold his music catalog for $200 million in 2023, his personal expenses and financial commitments have affected his economic stability.
The relationship between Justin Bieber and Braun has deteriorated, with mutual accusations of improper payments and financial mismanagement.
Braun’s company, Hybe, commissioned an audit which concluded that Bieber still owes considerable debt.
For its part, the singer’s entourage questions the results and alleges that Braun earned more than historically agreed.
Fiscal and lifestyle issues
In addition to debts to Braun, Bieber faces tax problems, including an unpaid tax bill of $380,000 for his Coachella Valley property.
The singer has reportedly taken lines of credit on his properties and made significant real estate and lifestyle expenditures, which have exacerbated his financial difficulties.
In the midst of these financial challenges, Bieber has shown signs of emotional distress.
Recently, she posted a series of videos on Instagram with confusing statements about her childhood, religion and mental health, which has generated concern among her followers.
These behaviors have been interpreted as indicative of a deeper internal struggle.
Justin Bieber’s team response
Bieber’s team has denied the claims about his alleged bankruptcy, calling them “inaccurate assumptions” and attributing them to uninformed sources.
Despite concerns expressed by former collaborators and the media, his representatives insist that the singer is committed to his well-being and continues to work on new projects.

He also highlights the need for emotional and professional support in times of crisis, stressing that fame and fortune do not immunize against personal and financial challenges.
