Music industry major Scooter Braun deactivated his Instagram account shortly after Justin Bieber, his longtime client, unfollowed him. The move intensifies speculation about growing tensions between the two, which have been widely discussed over the years.
Bieber’s instauration over the weekend caught the attention of fans and follows reports of a rocky professional relationship since 2023. In 2024, Braun reportedly stepped down from managing Bieber, although the singer remains under contract with Braun until 2028 due to a contract amendment in 2020.
To add to the drama, fans on platforms like Fauxmoi pointed out that Bieber’s wife, Hailey Bieber, allegedly blocked Braun on social media. Although neither party involved has made a public comment, these actions suggest a significant change in their dynamic.
Braun’s deactivation comes as he leaves artist management to focus on his role as CEO of HYBE America, the North American arm of South Korean HYBE Corporation. Her departure from Instagram perhaps reflects a recalibration of her public image during this professional transition.
Recent developments have fans wondering about the future of Braun and Bieber’s relationship, as well as the broader implications for Bieber’s career. Both remain silent on the matter, fueling ongoing speculation about the future of the artist and his former manager.
