Watch Justin Bieber Call Out ‘Asshole’ Paparazzi: ‘Why Are You Guys Out Here?’

In a recent incident, Justin Bieber confronted paparazzi outside Beverly Glen Deli in Los Angeles following a breakfast date with his wife, Hailey Bieber. The altercation began when a photographer thanked Justin, a gesture he perceived as disrespectful. Visibly frustrated, Justin remarked, “Don’t thank me. I’m not asking you to be here.” He continued, “I don’t want you to be here. When you thank me, it’s disrespectful. Just take your pictures and let me do my thing.”
This incident is part of a broader pattern of Justin Bieber’s strained relationship with the paparazzi. In April 2011, during a trip to Israel, he expressed frustration over being followed, stating he wanted to experience the country without interference. He tweeted, “I want to see this country and all the places I’ve dreamed of, and whether it’s the paps or being pulled into politics, it’s been frustrating.”
More recently, in February 2025, Justin addressed individuals loitering outside his home, labeling their actions as “completely inappropriate and disrespectful.” He wrote on Instagram, “How do you convince yourself it’s not completely inappropriate and disrespectful to wait outside my home to gawk, stare and take pictures as I walk into my apartment?” He added, “This is not a hotel. It’s my home.”
These events highlight the ongoing tension between celebrities and paparazzi, emphasizing the need for boundaries and mutual respect.
