FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the above post, and found it to be false.
Firstly, Bieber being a popular pop star, news of his demise would have been carried by news outlets globally. Instead, there was no such incident reported by any of the credible news outlets.
However, we found reports about Hailey Bieber going through ’emotional struggles’ and Justin being heartbroken because of the same.
But there was no news of his demise.
It is to be noted that such a hoax about Justin Bieber’s demise dates back to 2010 when he himself clarified that he was alive.
one…Im not dead. I had to check on this one…but it turns out Im alive
