Justin Bieber's Swag II Surge: Coachella, Karaoke, and a Billion-Dollar Beauty Deal

Justin Bieber's Swag II Surge: Coachella, Karaoke, and a Billion-Dollar Beauty Deal

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Justin Bieber has been making major headlines, both musically and personally, in recent days. NPR reports that his latest album Swag, which initially debuted at number two on the Billboard chart about two months back, is enjoying a renaissance after the surprise release of an expanded deluxe edition called Swag II. The original Swag had 21 tracks but the new version, now totaling 44 songs and clocking in at over two hours, has vaulted the album from number 17 up to the number four position on the Billboard charts. The single Daisies sits firmly in the top ten, and fresh tracks like Speed Demon have entered the Hot 100, reflecting Bieber’s strategy of streaming-era supersizing. While this move is commercially successful, critical reception is mixed: Rolling Stone has called Swag II "safe" and The Observer, even from self-described Beliebers, describes the project as underwhelming with only a few standout tracks like Speed Demon and Eye Candy, the latter believed to be a tribute to his wife Hailey Bieber.

On the live front, NBC Palm Springs broke the news that Bieber will headline Coachella 2025, a genuine first as a lead act after years as a guest performer. The slot, confirmed on September 15, is a lucrative move: Rolling Stone and Celebrity Net Worth both detail that Bieber negotiated his own $10 million fee for two weekends, bypassing agent fees and reaffirming his position as a savvy business operator. This comes on the heels of him stepping away from Drew House, his fashion brand, as he clarified in April: he stated on social media that Drew House no longer represents him or his family, and urged fans not to spend money on it. Meanwhile, he has been seen supporting Hailey’s Rhode skincare line, which was acquired for $1 billion by e.l.f. Beauty in May.

On September 10, as shown on CTV News, Justin surprised staff at a local Cambridge pub in Ontario with a laid-back karaoke session, singing tracks from Swag II and generally enjoying a low-key night out. The following day he and Hailey popped into a local coffee shop, where staff described the couple as friendly and unassuming, with fans and baristas capturing candid moments for Instagram. Publicly, Hailey has been vocally supportive, celebrating her husband’s Coachella headliner status with the now-viral "Bieberchella" Instagram story, while also sharing family updates and their celebration of young son Jack’s first birthday in August.

Speculation has been minimal and overshadowed by these verifiable events. The sum of recent days is a narrative of career resurgence, critical scrutiny, business maneuvering, personal milestones, and a comfortable public presence, all signaling a new phase in Bieber’s ongoing evolution as both artist and celebrity.
