Back in August Justin Bieber made good on a threat to his followers that he’d delete Instagram if they didn’t stop making “mean” comments on photos he posted of his then-girlfriend, model Sofia Richie, suddenly shutting down his account.
But after six months it seems Bieber thinks his fan base has been punished enough, as he re-activated his account on Saturday. Or perhaps more accurately, Justin was probably contractually obliged to re-open his account, because the first thing he posted was his commercial for T Mobile which will air during the Super Bowl.
It’ll be interesting to see how much of his life Justin chooses to share with the world, especially since he slammed the app during a concert in November.
“Nah, I don’t want to get my Instagram back” he told the crowd during the European leg of his Purpose Tour. “I’m sure… I think hell is Instagram. I’m 90 percent sure. We get sent to hell, we get like locked in the Instagram server.”
Justin and ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez exchanged harsh words on Instagram in the days before he shut down his account last year, and coincidentally (or maybe not) she took a three-month hiatus from the platform last year. It could be a new year and a fresh start for the exes … except Selena is now dating Bieber’s competition The Weeknd. No chance.
