The past few years have certainly been a whirlwind for Justin Bieber, but he seems to be determined to come back stronger than ever. After a nearly two-year hiatus, the singer is making headlines for all the right reasons with his new album, Purpose, including his hit song "What Do You Mean?" reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. In the November issue of the music magazine, Justin opens up about the pressures of fame, his admiration for Selena Gomez, and how he's slowly but surely getting his life back on track. Keep reading to see his best quotes, and then listen to the acoustic version of his new single, "Sorry."
- On hating some of his own music: "It's hard to make meaningful songs that make you want to dance because it can come off cheesy. In the past I've recorded songs that I didn't like, that I wouldn't listen to, that the label was telling me to record. I'm self-expressing with this album."
- On his nude-photos scandal and his dad's comments: "I do feel the photo was an invasion of my privacy. I felt super violated. My dad made light of it, but I don't think that's sick and twisted. It was funny. Dads are going to be dads."
- On growing up in the spotlight: "I wouldn't suggest being a child star. It's the toughest thing in the world. Like Kylie [Jenner]. Look at her world: She has been living on TV since she was a kid. Every time she's looking around she sees a camera, and that's affecting how she's thinking and how she's perceiving people and why she has to do certain things . . . Situations that happen taint your mind, especially in this industry."
- On how he will always love Selena Gomez: "I'm proud of the woman she is today. When you love someone that much, even if something comes between you, it's a love that never really dies."
- On how he's trying to change: "Enough with the Justin Bieber Show. I want to veer away from the self-centered attitude. I'm just focused on the people who have been there since the start, on people who are taking the journey now. I want them to feel like we're doing this together."
