Over the years, Justin Bieber has been a magnet for scandals, controversies, and public feuds. Recently, however, he has mellowed out, transforming into a devoted husband and dealing with health challenges, including a bout with Ramsay Hunt syndrome that partially paralyzed his face and caused him to cancel several shows, including in Israel. But over the weekend, he found himself in the middle of an unexpected commotion, surprisingly caused by kids celebrating at a bar mitzvah party.
A video making the rounds on social media shows the singer in the lobby of a Beverly Hills hotel, sternly reprimanding a group of giggling boys wearing kippahs. He can be heard demanding: "Is this funny to you? Is this funny to you guys? Get out of here!"
An eyewitness told TMZ that the incident began while Bieber was waiting in the hotel lobby for his pregnant wife, Hailey Baldwin, who was supposed to meet him there. The boys noticed the star and gathered around him. Despite his polite request for them to leave him alone, they refused and continued to laugh, prompting his angry outburst.
Just a few years ago, the idea of the once-rebellious Justin Bieber scolding others for being too mischievous would have seemed unbelievable. It appears that impending fatherhood can bring about significant changes.
Next month, the Biebers will celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary (who would have guessed they'd last this long?), and they are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child, expected very soon. The couple announced Hailey's pregnancy in May, when she was already six months along. Since then, they have kept details and experiences under wraps, not even revealing whether they are expecting a boy or a girl.
