Justin Bieber reportedly plans to take his business managers to court over claims that they mismanaged his finances.

The pop star who sold off his catalog of songs is "upset" that he has lost a "ton of money" due to their alleged inability to manage his finances properly.

A few months back, Justin Bieber also parted ways with his long-time manager, Scooter Braun, though it is unclear if the talent manager is among those whom the singer intends to sue.

According to TMZ, Bieber believes his business managers grossly mismanaged his money for years and now want to sue them.

Sources informed the outlet that the singer believes he "lost a ton of money as a result of terrible decisions made by business managers," although it was not disclosed just how much he believes has been wasted.

They also hinted that the mismanagement was not over a short period, as Bieber has been "very upset for several years" over their financial decisions.

However, it appears that his decision to move forward with a filing against the alleged offenders is being stalled because some of his team members have advised him not to do so.

In the meantime, it is unclear if part of the money that was mismanaged included the profits from the sale of the singer's music catalog in January 2023.

At the time, Bieber sold the catalog for $200 million to music investment company Hipgnosis Songs Capital.

He no longer gets any checks from streaming companies on the songs he released before December 31, 2021.

While discussions are said to be ongoing to determine the next steps in the matter, some have accused Bieber of spending his wealth recklessly.

This seems to hint at an earlier report by the Daily Mail of his wife, Hailey Bieber, being "a seriously high spender" and reportedly spending "tens of millions on private jets to fly around the world."
