Justin Bieber had a heated run-in with paparazzi after leaving dinner with Hailey Bieber in West Hollywood, a moment that quickly made the rounds online after a video showed the singer tossing a water bottle toward photographers waiting outside the restaurant.
According to TMZ, the situation unfolded as the couple exited Sushi Park and made their way to their car in a parking garage where paparazzi had gathered. Footage from the scene shows Justin looking visibly irritated as camera flashes went off while he got into a black SUV.
Moments later, the singer tossed a Fiji water bottle toward the paparazzi before closing the door and leaving with Hailey Bieber. The bottle hit the ground and did not appear to strike anyone.
Hailey Bieber seemed unfazed during the brief moment of tension. Footage shows her calmly getting into the vehicle as photographers continued calling out to the couple. Their driver pulled away shortly after, ending the encounter.
Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber have long been one of the most photographed celebrity couples in Los Angeles. Since tying the knot in 2018, they’ve frequently been followed by photographers while attending events, traveling, or simply going out for dinner in busy spots like West Hollywood.
While no clear verbal exchange can be heard in the videos circulating online, Justin’s body language suggested he was frustrated as he got into the car.
Meanwhile, Hailey Bieber’s family has also been dealing with legal trouble. Her sister, Alaia Baldwin Aronow, was recently hit with several misdemeanor charges related to a February 2024 incident at a Georgia nightclub.
Prosecutors claim Baldwin Aronow struck one person in the genitals, pulled another person’s hair, and threw a used tampon at a bartender during the altercation. The case remained inactive for over a year before charges were officially filed.
Baldwin Aronow is scheduled to be arraigned on April 23. If found guilty of the battery charge, she could face up to one year in jail under Georgia law.
