After spending a few rough years growing up in the spotlight and not always making the best decisions, Justin Bieber has wandered down many different avenues in hopes of repairing his soured image. So far, he's done pretty well for himself on the road to redemption until he hit the latest snag during an interview with Spanish radio station Vodafone Yu. After being asked a series of bizarre questions, an uncomfortable Bieber stood up and, instead of participating in a YouTube video challenge; he ducked out of the awkward radio station interview without returning.
The 21-year-old "Where Are U Now" singer, who recently compared his career path to Justin Timberlake's, doesn't know a word of Spanish, which didn't help the interview conducted by a Spanish translator. The two hosts bounced mindless questions back and forth concerning the pop star's love life, partying habits, if he dresses himself and whether or not he's sorry for being so famous, The Huffington Post reports.
When asked if he's run out of people to thank after having won so many awards, an unamused Bieber responded, "I just wanted to be in the moment. I don't wanna have to think about all these different people during this time, I just wanna enjoy it," according to The Independent. "If they need me to thank them on an award show to make them feel validated, you weren't doing it for the right reasons anyway," he continued.
As the interview lingered, it grew increasingly painful while Bieber looked visibly confused and uninterested as ever. After being asked to help "break the Internet" by starring in a YouTube video, the "What Do You Mean?" singer said "let's do this" as if he was going to participate but instead walked out of the room leaving the trio behind. The final frame reads "and Justin never returned."
As of late, the "Sorry" singer has kept busy promoting his fourth and latest studio album in three years, Purpose, which is slated for a November release. On Wednesday, he took to Twitter to share the album's track list by unveiling photos of the song titles painted in graffiti various cities around the globe.
