In classic Internet fashion, one video was all it took to get the rumour mills spinning at full throttle. Justin Bieber, the king of pop chaos and hoodie-core fashion, was spotted at rapper Sexxxy Red¡¯s birthday bash looking too happy¡ªand netizens immediately decided he was about to drop a breakup album.
The now-viral clip showed the Baby singer vibing at the rapper¡¯s 27th birthday party, where things escalated with a cheeky kiss on her cheek and some serious dance-floor chemistry. Social media lost it, obviously. Comments flew in, mostly from people wondering if this was Justin¡¯s ¡°I¡¯m single now¡± era.
But hold on¡ªbefore you spiral into a #Jelena-style breakdown, Sexxxy Red herself brought out the receipts and shut the haters down with one Instagram comment. Sharing a video from the night, she referred to Bieber as her ¡°friend¡± and reminded the trolls that yes, Justin does smile like that with his wife Hailey too. With that one clapback, she basically hit ¡°mute¡± on all the chaos.
And while the Internet continues to freak out over a 2-second cheek kiss, here¡¯s a reality check: Justin and Hailey are still very much in love and thriving. Earlier, the couple were spotted on a cosy dinner date that practically screamed ¡°still together, thanks.¡± Justin also went full Romeo with a December Instagram post where he shared a winter ice-skating snap with Hailey and captioned her as ¡°the greatest woman¡± he¡¯s ever known.
If that¡¯s not enough proof, let us remind you¡ªthey literally just welcomed their first baby boy, Jack Blues Bieber, in August 2024. Divorce who? Exactly.
So while Justin may be dancing with rapper besties and giving us club-kid energy, his marriage seems pretty solid, thank you very much. Sometimes a kiss on the cheek is just a kiss, and a birthday party is just... a birthday party.
In conclusion: calm down, Internet. Not every viral moment is a breakup teaser.
