Justin Bieber has admitted that his behaviour over the last year has been “arrogant and conceited” in a new video.
The Baby singer posted the footage online after filming an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and apologised for her demeanour in recent times, adding that he has been covering up his true feelings.
He added that he was “really nervous” ahead of his interview on the show as he “was afraid of what people are thinking about about me right now”.
“I’m not who I was pretending to be. Why I say I was ‘pretending’ is often we pretend to be something we’re not as a cover up of what we’re truly feeling inside. And there were a lot of feelings going on in there. Just being young and growing up in this business is hard. Just growing up in general is hard,” he said
“I just felt awkward up there. I felt like people were judging me, and I really want people to know how much I care, how much I care about people, and how I’m not that person to say, ‘I don’t give a f*ck,’ you know? I’m not that kid. I’m a person who genuinely cares. And although what’s happened in the past has happened, I just want to make the best impression on people and be kind and loving and gentle and soft. And although people can call me a ‘softy,’ that’s how my mom raised me.”
