A resurfaced clip of Justin Bieber discussing his desire to “protect” Billie Eilish while reflecting on his experience in the music industry is currently trending online.
According to the New York Post, Justin Bieber shared his thoughts on Billie Eilish during a 2020 interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe before releasing his album, ‘Changes.’
In clips shared by TSR, a tearful Justin Bieber reflects on his early experiences in the music industry. During the conversation, Zane Lowe asks him if he felt protective of Billie at the beginning of her career.
“Yeah, I definitely feel protective of her. It was hard for me being that young and being in the industry… and not knowing where to turn. And everyone telling me they love me, you know, and just turn their back on you in a second,” Justin replied.
The ‘Peaches’ singer added that he wanted Eilish to know she could rely on him, but he aimed to let their friendship develop naturally without being overbearing.
“I just wanna protect her. I don’t want her to lose it. Go through anything I went through. I don’t wish that upon anybody,” Bieber says while wiping tears from his eyes.
Instagram user @unemployed.mike wrote, “I swear bro is such a genuine and kind hearted dude. Crying over wanting to protect someone else is pure love.”
Instagram user @king_andrew_sr wrote, “For him to say he don’t want anyone to go through what he went through you know he got violated in the worst ways.”
While Instagram user @simplysweetpeannie wrote, “The day he tells his truth, its going to something! The adults around him failed him period!”
Then Instagram user @tonypbigtony wrote, “You can see the trauma just by him speaking.”
More recently, Justin made headlines by announcing the arrival of his first child with his wife, Hailey Bieber.
The couple confirmed that they welcomed their baby on August 23.
The ‘Sorry’ musician shared a photo of his son’s tiny foot with the caption,”WELCOME HOME.” He also revealed their sons name asJack Blues Bieber.
