Justin Bieber stirred discussion among fans after sharing photos on Instagram depicting him smoking from a bong. The 30-year-old Peaches singer is currently vacationing in Aspen, Colorado, with his wife Hailey Bieber, 28, and their five-month-old son, Jack Blues.

In the photos, Bieber is seated with the bong between his legs, wearing a black wide-brimmed hat and a blanket over his shoulders. The images show him lighting the bong, inhaling, and exhaling smoke, a sequence that drew a mixed reaction from followers.
Fans’ responses in the comments section ranged from concern to support. Some expressed disapproval, referencing his role as a father. One user commented, “You are a father. This is not your way.” Others defended his actions, pointing out the double standards between societal acceptance of drinking and marijuana use. A commenter wrote, “It’s hilarious that drinking is normalized, yet a guy can’t smoke a legal substance without backlash.”
Supportive messages also emerged, with one fan joking, “In another life we smoke bowls together,” accompanied by a heart hands emoji. Another expressed concern for the singer’s well-being, writing, “I hope you’re ok, buddy.”
