Justin Bieber Explains Himself In A Remarkable Zane Lowe Interview

By FYI Staff

Friday, Justin Bieber released Chances, his fifth studio album and the first since Purpose in 2015.


Needless to say, interest in it is explosive. The two teaser singles have both been massive hits for him. Simultaneous with the 17-track album’s release, all tickets for his lengthy 45-date tour went on sale.

Below, his interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. It’s a remarkable conversation that finds the 25-year-old candid about his past, the significance of Jesus in his life today, how his wife Haley has turned his life around, what it’s like to live a life where people have told him he is “awesome” since his discovery in his teens, and how trust, acceptance and his relationship with his father have started to become staples in a life that has had its stormy weather. Towards the end of the interview, he discusses his own personal pain and the suffering of the many in this world. He comes close to shedding tears. Not the usual celebrity interview, but then Justin has forever proven himself to be anything but ordinary when it comes to sharing his life with fans.

Obituaries: '60s Pop Idol Lou Christie Passes Away at 82

This week we also acknowledge the passing of New York City rock photographer Marcia Resnick, reggae star Leroy Gibbons and South African jazz drummer Louis Moholo.

Lou Christie (Lugee Alfredo Giovanni Sacco), one of the most beloved teen pop idols of the 1960s and the voice and songwriter behind Billboard Hot 100-topper “Lightnin’ Strikes,” died on June 18, after a long illness. He was 82 years old.

ABillboard obituary reports that the Pennsylvania-born singer "Christie soared to fame in the early ’60s with hits such as 'The Gypsy Cried' and 'Two Faces Have I,' the latter of which reached No. 6 on the Hot 100 in 1963. The star’s biggest hit came three years later, when 'Lightnin’ Strikes' ascended to the chart’s summit, but he would still score a top 10 smash years later in 1969 with 'I’m Gonna Make You Mine.'"
