During his livestream, Justin revealed the extent of his injury and didn’t hold back about how much pain he’s in. “My rib hurts so f-cking bad, bro,” the "Baby" hitmaker told fans. “That sh-t bro is hurting me bad, bro. I’m trying to play it cool, bro. This sh-t is f-cking with me.”
The pop star then explained how the fall happened. “Chat, I f-cking fell on my side on that Onewheel and landed on my [hip],” he said. “So, even singing, laughing, everything hurts.”
Despite the painful spill, Justin powered through a live rehearsal for Coachella 2026, clutching his ribs while joking about the incident. “Bro, that fall the other day?” he said with a wince. “It hurts to laugh, talk.”
Justin Bieber Opens Up About 'Tense' Moment With Hailey During Son’s Birth

This isn’t the first time Justin has used Twitch to give fans a glimpse into his personal life. Back in October, the 31-year-old singer got candid about a “tense” moment with his wife, Hailey, during the August 2024 delivery of their son, Jack Blues.
The "Sorry" hitmaker recalled feeling uneasy in the delivery room, explaining that he thought Hailey’s doula was “pushing [him] to the side” as he felt the instinctive need to comfort his wife. “It’s instinctual to be a dad and to, like, be there,” Justin said during the livestream, sharing that Hailey later confronted him over “butting heads” with the doula.
While he acknowledged the doula’s role in helping “facilitate” the birth, Justin admitted he struggled to step back, saying he felt he “needed to be in there too.” Hailey, he said, felt “anxious” over his “strong” emotions during the delivery, leading to a brief moment of tension between them as they navigated the intense experience together.
Justin Bieber Admits He Was 'Sadly Mistaken' After Telling Hailey She’d Never Be On A Vogue Cover

Earlier this year, Justin proved that when it comes to his marriage, he’s learned to never say never. After Hailey made her solo debut on the cover of Vogue’s Summer Issue, the pop star opened up about a moment of regret stemming from a past argument between the couple.
“I told Hails that she would never be on the cover of Vogue,” Justin recalled in a heartfelt Instagram post on May 20, sharing the stunning cover. “For some reason, because I felt so disrespected, I thought I gotta get even. I think as we mature we realize that we’re not helping anything by getting even.”
The "Baby" singer reflected on how his past behavior had more to do with pride than truth, acknowledging how growth and maturity have shifted his perspective. “We’re honestly just prolonging what we really want, which is intimacy and connection,” he continued.
Justin ended his post with a public apology to his wife of six years, writing, “Baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn’t get a Vogue cover cuz clearly I was sadly mistaken.” The sweet message came amid ongoing speculation about the couple’s marriage, rumors that Hailey has continued to brush off as nothing more than gossip.
