Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Justin Bieber has been in the headlines this week not for a new song but for a very relatable tech rant. According to AOL and India Today, Bieber took to social media on Friday to vent about the iPhone’s iMessage dictation button, saying if he hits it one more time and it stops his music, he’s going to “find everyone at Apple and put them in a rear naked choke hold.” He shared a screenshot showing how the send button and dictation or voice note controls sit too close together, calling it bad design and insisting the send button shouldn’t have multiple functions in one spot. His frustration clearly hit home, because the post went viral, with thousands of users agreeing they suffer the same accidental taps. Elon Musk reshared Bieber’s post with two fire emojis, and Ian Silber, head of product design at OpenAI, joked that Bieber is officially invited to their weekly design critiques. India Today notes this isn’t the first time Bieber has complained about iMessage interrupting his music, and his public criticism is now amplifying a long-standing user complaint that Apple may finally have to address.
Meanwhile, Bieber’s been spotted in Tokyo over the past few days. A YouTube short from December 5 shows him at the 1 OAK TOKYO nightclub, and another clip from December 3 captures him and Hailey Bieber at a café in the city. These sightings suggest the couple is enjoying some downtime in Japan, though no official reason for the trip has been confirmed.
On the business front, there’s no new announcement this week, but AOL’s coverage of his Apple rant also touches on his broader role as a high profile user whose feedback now carries weight in tech circles, especially as Apple faces leadership changes and increased competition from OpenAI and Meta.
