Justin Bieber is regularly featured in celebrity media and for good reason. Although the current trend of young artists continues to be a prevalent theme over the last decade (with Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, and Dua Lipa being breakout performers over the last several years especially) the “Purpose” album creator was well ahead of these new faces, dominating international pop music charts in the process.

His ability as an artist is probably only rivaled by his dancing and his social media influence online. In fact, his last post was so popular so fast, that the fans have already begun to flood him with pictures building off the trend he started.

For those who may not be aware, Justin shared a picture of himself bringing back an older social media fad… planking! (And no, it wasn’t Hailey in case you were confused)

Yes indeed, the blonde wonder has created an incredible surge of popularity around the iconic pose in less than 24 hours since it went live!

Fans from around the globe are sending him pictures of themselves planking, and boy is the internet lighting up at the sight! The mere idea that this is even real has so many viewers shocked in the comments!

Here are some of the latest comments left on his mega-viral planking post:

“I need an explanation ???” (Commentator) “weird flex but ok” (Commentator) “That’s how i look knowing you are finishing JB6” (Commentator) “should we start our planking days again?” (Commentator) “the content 2021 needed” (Commentator) “IM DEAD…IM ALIVE BUT IM DEAD…” (Commentator) “Drop a Drew line with the word plank on it Plank 2021. Keep the smiley face but for the mouth do a silhouette of you in this plank position ?? just an idea” (Commentator) 

Justin’s last major article headline shared the fan’s horror and amazement as his music video for “Anyone” was taken off of YouTube. The platform shared their reasons behind this: “This video has been removed for violating YouTube’s policy on spam, deceptive practices, and scams.”

The move by the video hub was so negatively received and viewed online that it sparked a small movement called “Respect Justin Bieber”. Although neither Justin or YouTube has actually clarified why the video was initially taken down, the music video was in fact put back up publicly. 

Aside from those hiccups and the apparent desire to resurrect old social fads, Justin has been hard at work in the studio working on a brand new album. He post pictures of himself in the studio and excited everyone after sharing that he was finishing up!

As mentioned in previous articles, it would seem that Justin is dead-set on dominating the music charts with a new album, especially after releasing so many chart-topping singles in 2020 already! The future is bright for the planking Bieber!
