Justin Bieber was pushed back onto the stage by his wife Hailey who is desperate for the world to see that he is ‘okay’ in the wake of increased speculation over his health and his past relationship with Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs.
The Believe singer joined Don Toliver, 30, on stage for a surprise appearance at the rapper’s Los Angeles concert on Saturday night.
Justin, also 30, made an impromptu appearance for Private Landing – Don’s 2023 track that he featured on – but did not sing despite holding a mic in his hand the entire time.
Insiders claim that those close to the troubled singer were left confused by the decision to put him on stage and feel it did little to dispel the growing concerns about him.
‘It wasn’t Justin’s idea to take the stage,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Hailey has been pushing Justin to get out there and show he is okay – but this didn’t show that at all.

Justin, 30, made a surprise appearance on stage with Don Toliver to perform their 2023 song Private Landing, but he didn’t sing
‘What people say about Justin is more important to Hailey than it is to Justin. Those who have worked with Justin think that this did more harm than good.
‘He went on stage looking disheveled and unkept and didn’t sing a single note. He didn’t even try to sing which left everyone more confused as to what his purpose was in being there at all.’
Others reportedly questioned Hailey’s decision to attend the show with Steve Harvey’s daughter Lori Harvey, 27, who reportedly dated Diddy, when she was 22 and he was 49.
Although the socialite denied dating the disgraced rapper they were close and appeared in public together on multiple occasions.
‘To top it off, Hailey brought Lori Harvey with her,’ the source continued. ‘No one understands the reason for any of this. If she wanted to show Justin was fine, go out to dinner.’
A second source added: ‘Hailey keeps telling Justin he should do more and be the performer that she knows he can be. She loves him in that element.
‘She wants to break his shell a little more and would love to see him get back to his career a little more once next year starts.’
Fans have been fearing for Justin in the wake of Diddy’s arrest in Manhattan on September 16. The fallen mogul has been charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

He has since been accused of sexual assault by over 120 victims in civil filings. He denies all of the charges against him.
On Sunday, a new lawsuit accused Combs of drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 VMAs afterparty with two unnamed celebrities present.
Following Diddy’s arrest, troubling videos resurfaced of the Bad Boy Records founder and a young Justin on the cusp of superstardom.
One video saw Diddy standing next to the pop sensation, aged 15, as he told the camera: ‘He’s having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we’re doing we can’t really disclose. But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream.’
The hip hop star added: ‘I have been given custody of him. He’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he did his first album.
‘I don’t have legal guardianship of him [Justin] but for the next forty-eight hours he’s with me and we’re gonna go full buck crazy.’
Another resurfaced clip saw the rapper grilling a 16-year-old Justin on why he hadn’t been speaking to him as much.
‘What’s up man, you good? Selling out arenas and everything?’ Combs asked the youngster.

Hailey reposted a photo with Justin via Instagram on Sunday, writing, ‘baby’
‘Starting to act different, huh? You haven’t been calling me and hanging out the way we used to hang out.’
The popstar appeared anxious as he responded to his musical colleague.
Justin was just a child when he forged a friendship with Diddy. He even featured on the rapper’s track Moment, which appeared on his 2023 album The Love Album: Off the Grid.

Hailey sent a not-so-subtle message about the public outcry of concern for Justin when she shared a throwback snap on Instagram of Justin giving the middle finger.
Sources at the time told DailyMail.com that she sees herself as Justin’s ‘gatekeeper’ – adding that the poignant photo was ‘her way of showing the world how she feels about the whole situation [with Diddy] – not Justin.’
The insider noted that the Rhode beauty founder’s picture choice was extremely telling.
‘Out of the 100s of photos of Justin giving the middle finger, she had to choose one from 2017 that was taken before he got back together with [his ex Selena Gomez] again,’ they said.

It comes after sources previously told DailyMail.com that Justin feels he has no one to talk to and is ‘sailing these waters alone.’
‘Justin feels like there is no one that he can talk to that understands and, to be honest, he doesn’t even fully understand,’ the source explained. ‘He was a kid.’
Hailey and Justin tied the knot in 2018 and welcomed their first child, son Jack, on August 22.
Becoming a first time dad while navigating the Diddy drama has not been easy on the hitmaker.
‘Justin is stressed right now,’ a source told DailyMail.com. ‘Diddy could not have happened at a worse time as he is trying to experience the joy of being a father with the pain of having to deal with all of this.’
