Justin Bieber has opened up about the pain of growing up in the music industry, saying his Christian faith helped him reclaim an identity beyond the expectations that came with becoming a global pop star.
In a series of Instagram posts shared on Christmas Eve, Bieber reflected on fame, anger, forgiveness and healing. He described growing up in a system that rewarded his talent but did not always protect him, saying he felt 'used, rushed, shaped into something that I didn't fully choose.'
