Inside Justin Bieber's Private Rituals And The Circle No One Talks About

For someone as famous as Justin Bieber, his private world is surprisingly small.

The global superstar has built a life surrounded by only a few trusted people, keeping most of his off-stage world hidden from public view.

However, one of those insiders is offering a rare glimpse behind the curtain.

From his pre-game prayers to the spiritual energy he brings into every room, Bieber’s private world is not what anyone expects.

At the heart of Bieber’s private life is The League, an invite-only basketball club in Los Angeles where celebrities, designers, and creatives meet to play and connect.

There, the singer plays on Team Skylark, named after his fashion label, alongside his friend and The League founder Ron Abaekobe.

Over time, the pair have grown close both on and off the court.

Recently, Abaekobe described the pop icon as “super spiritual, one of the most down-to-earth people” he knows, and someone all about love.

Through their games and shared moments, Abaekobe saw a side of Bieber that rarely reaches the headlines.

“He’s so kind and present in a way that’s just so refreshing,” he told the Daily Mail.

Those moments, he explained, often lead to deeper talks about life, purpose, and faith, conversations that show a calm and thoughtful side of Bieber away from the spotlight.

For Justin Bieber, basketball isn’t just about competition. It is also a moment of connection.

Before every game, he leads his team in prayer. The ritual, Abaekobe said, helps everyone center themselves before stepping onto the court.

“Right before we walk out, we do say a team prayer, and that’s probably the biggest energy shifter for us, usually led by [one of the coaches] or Justin,” he shared

According to Abaekobe, it is not a rehearsed prayer either.

He described it as “straight freestyle,” adding that Bieber often gives thanks and prays for everyone’s health and protection.

The founder shared that the prayer is usually simple, but powerful, something that everyone could relate to, spiritual or non-spiritual.

For Bieber, those few minutes seem to keep him grounded and thankful, no matter what’s happening in his life.

Even in his most private spaces, Justin Bieber isn’t alone.

His wife, Hailey, often joins him at games, quietly cheering from the sidelines or celebrating victories afterward.

“Hailey’s there, the family’s there,” Abaekobe explained. “It’s a little separate with the way we bring the family around… she was there supporting him last week.”

After one major win, the atmosphere in the locker room was electric.

“There was a huge moment in the locker room after the game because it was a big win,” Abaekobe recalled. “Justin played phenomenal… There was an energy in the room that we couldn’t miss.”

Bieber’s involvement in The League started almost by chance.

During its second season, fashion designer Doni Nahmias mentioned the club to him over dinner.

The next day, the Grammy Award winner showed up ready to play and never stopped.

“He played every week after that, about eight weeks in a row,” Abaekobe told the outlet.

What began as a casual game turned into a deeper friendship and a shared outlet for reflection. In no time, the bond between Bieber and his friend grew far beyond basketball.

“We are discussing things that I never even say out loud,” Abaekobe revealed.

Their connection, rooted in faith and honesty, became a safe space for both men. “We know each other’s hearts,” he said.

It is within that private circle that Bieber seems to have rediscovered a balance between fame and normalcy.

While Bieber keeps his inner world protected, he has also found new ways to connect with fans on his own terms.

His Twitch streams, inspired by Abaekobe, offer a rare, unfiltered look at his life.

“He actually told me that I was the reason why he started streaming,” Abaekobe explained, adding that the “Baby” crooner is showing “how he calibrates his mind, and where his moral compass is.”

On Twitch, Bieber isn’t performing, but he’s just being himself. In one stream, he carved pumpkins with friends and talked about boundaries, showing a calmer and more thoughtful side of himself.

“I think he’s proving a lot of people wrong,” Abaekobe said. “He’s shutting out a lot of the negativity that always comes his way… and I’m just happy the stream is finally starting to capture that.”

Inside The League, Bieber’s presence stands out, not just as a superstar, but as a man who is finally at peace.

Away from Hollywood’s spotlight, he is building something more meaningful, a life filled with love, faith, and balance.
