“If you even think of a woman with lust, it’s the same thing as actually doing it — committing adultery or whatever,” Bieber said. “If it even crosses your mind for one second, it’s wrong.” The Peaches singer also compared such moral failings to other sins, adding, “If you treat a man with anger, it’s the same as killing a man.”

The Grammy winner made the remarks while casually chatting with friends over fast food during his Twitch broadcast. The discussion quickly spread across social media, sparking divided reactions from fans. Some praised Bieber’s honesty and religious conviction, while others criticized his comments as unrealistic. “Biologically speaking, all men in relationships still feel attraction toward others,” one user wrote, while another quipped that Bieber was “hosting Sunday school” despite his history of romantic lyrics.

Bieber and Hailey, 28, have been married since 2018, first tying the knot in New York City before holding a larger ceremony in South Carolina the following year. The couple recently celebrated the first birthday of their son, Jack Blues Bieber.

The Canadian artist has also been expanding his presence on Twitch as he prepares for his headlining performance at the 2026 Coachella Music Festival, where he reportedly became the highest-paid performer in the festival’s history, earning over $10 million. His father, Jeremy Bieber, told Daily Mail that fatherhood has helped ground the singer and strengthened his work ethic.
