Justin Bieber: Next Chapter | A Special Documentary Event (Official)

( music playing )

♪ Oh, God ♪

What do you think

people would be most

interested to know

that you did

during quarantine?

So many people in quarantine

lost their job.

So many people

don't have the privilege

to work, right?

And I have these doors

that have opened for me

to actually work,

which I feel is an honor

and a privilege,

and so I want to do my best

with this opportunity

to create stuff

that will inspire

and give them an insight

and maybe some cool,

different perspective, too.

Michael Ratner:

Why were you willing

to go and be like,

"Okay, let's have

cameras back.

Let's pick this up

where we left off."

Why do you think that

your fans would love

that so much?

First of all,

people love a happy ending.

Um, people love to see people

rise to the occasion.

I just feel like,

right now, it's a really

happy season,

and I want people

to get an inside look of,

"This guy really is

just a human

who's just figuring it out

like you and me."

- Amazing.

- Cool, cool.

Thanks, guys.

Appreciate ya's.

What's up, guys?

Are these new?

Dang, these are fire.

Michael:

What are we doing here?

Just getting a little

COVID test.

- You wanna swab.

- Yeah, I'll swab it up.

- Let's get it goin'. Yeah.

- Can I swab myself?

There you go.

Three, two, and one.

- Boom.

- Place that in there.

- Whee.

- There you go.

- My guy, Daniel C.

- ( Daniel chuckles )

Michael: You ended up

having to cancel the tour.

Where did your head go?

Obviously,

I was excited to perform.

I love performing.

It's one of my favorite

things in the world.

I love using what I'm good at

to make other people smile,

make other people happy.

But you just gotta release

that control to God,

trust that His plan

is better than our plan.

You know, I either was

going to sit around

and mope about it

and be depressed

or use that time to say,

"You know what?

This is not the plan,

but I can work on this

in my life.

Let me work on my relationship

with my wife."

Michael:

During quarantine,

most couples are having

more trouble than prior.

- How'd it go?

- So good. Perfect.

It couldn't have

gone better.

You know?

What more do you

have to do?

I just have to do liners.

- And then you're done?

- Yeah.

How cute.

Are we going

on a dinner date?

We can, totally.

Michael:

Divorce rates went up.

You went the exact

opposite direction.

Why is that?

You know, her and I

have really big lives.

And Hailey's such

a driven person.

I'm such a driven person.

So it allowed us

to take a step back

and focus on each other.

That was actually

really a beautiful thing.

- What?

- Our cover.

Let me see.

That's the cover?

- Wow, it's out?

- Mm-hmm.

It says, "My heart

is where my wife is."

Justin:

That's pretty.

Hailey really empowers me

and enables me to feel.

Like, "Justin,

I love you for you.

You are enough."

And that enables me

to go into my work space

and be confident and feel

like I'm enough.

And I think we're just

learning how to navigate

the relationship.

I mean,

we're now two years in.

Camera man:

Congrats, you two.

You already know, baby.

I made her a Bieber.

Had to wife it down.

You already know, baby.

( camera shutters clicking )

( overlapping laughter,

chatter )

Woman:

I need video of this.

( overlapping chatter )

I'm glad we, like,

made room for those moments.

We still, throughout

all that night, like,

we had that moment

where we stopped and we were

just, like, having a moment.

- You know?

- It was so fun. Yeah.

Hailey:

I look back on that time

and we both

really enjoyed our wedding.

We had a lot of fun.

I always think, if we were

to have done our wedding

the place we're in now

as opposed to then,

or even the year before that,

what would have been different?

And I just think that

both of us continue

to just become healthier people

from that moment forward.

Quarantine forced

you and I to address

some things head on.

Hailey:

The more time you spend

with somebody,

the more you learn

about each other,

and quarantine,

especially,

all you have

is time with each other.

It's so hard to show

your weakness.

But acknowledging your weakness

allows you to grow.

Here, get a seat.

Oh, okay.

All right.

- You want "bake-on"?

- Yes, please.

"Bake-on"?

Thanks, baby.

We continue to just show

one another that, you know,

you're my priority.

You continue to remind me

I'm your priority.

And I think time,

like you continue to say,

shows that.

It allows us to continue

to see each other's heart,

you know, and see,

"Okay, this person has

my best interest."

And we're building a life.

And we have something

to look forward to,

and it's growth

and it's hope

and it's all the things

that I think we all

crave as individuals.

It's incredible.

And I love you.

Me, too.

Michael:

You also got a new tattoo.

What's the meaning

behind the rose?

I think the thorns symbolize

the rough spots in my life.

The flower is such

a representation of beauty.

Michael:

You don't have that much

more real estate left.

Yeah, so I think I'm done

on my neck.

That's a Hailey request.

( chuckles )

My back is still pretty open,

and I don't have kids yet,

and so I'm thinking

of getting their portraits

on my back.

There's something

powerful that happens

when you commit to someone

in front of all your friends

and family

before God, under oath.

It's a crazy thing.

- Yeah.

- Like, something

really does switch.

Camera man: Pastor

Judah Smith, you conducted

the ceremony today.

Anything you'd like to share

with the bride and groom?

Oh, my God.

I love you guys so much.

And this celebration,

this party,

is really, really special.

Justin:

Judah is my pastor,

but he's also a brother.

Yeah, I just say

you're my pastor

and you're my brother.

That's pretty much it.

One of the most

amazing things

is just how much

you value your family,

how much you value

your wife.

And that's the kind of man

I want to be.

I want to be a man

who adds value to his family

and his-- his wife.

So thank you for being

that example for me.

- Thanks for saying that.

- For sure.

Marriage is just

difficult in general,

Um, and what's added

in your relationship

is obviously the pressure

of the perception of people

that actually don't know

the details

and want to know the details,

and so they project on you.

Justin: I always

want to let people know,

you know, we are on a journey.

- We're so not perfect.

- Totally.

We are working

on our relationship

and we want the best

for one another,

but we're gonna snap

at one another,

we're gonna say the wrong thing

and be hurtful sometimes.

As you do

in any relationship.

Parents, siblings,

friends.

Sometimes a good fight

is good for a marriage,

by the way.

You know, it's like,

tell each other the truth.

Like, "Well, that

bothered me, too," you know?

I think you guys fight fair

and you fight well.

And there are some aspects

of two years that you're still

gonna deal with in 21 years.

I hope that's not discouraging,

but it's like-- it's that dance,

and the music changes

without knowing,

and the only goal

is just to keep dancing.

Sure, all the cameras

are here,

but this is absolutely

who you guys are.

You know, as we're

doing this right now,

this is not something

you have to put on.

I just want to celebrate that

in the two of you.

I said it best

in the "Holy" song,

♪ I don't do well

with the drama ♪

♪ And, no, I can't

stand it being fake ♪

I just can't

stand fake stuff.

I never have.

- Say that.

- I never have been able

- to be in a room

with people who are--

- Never.

I just want to be me.

The biggest thing

about me that I want

is to have my family's back,

the people I care about,

that I love,

my friends' back,

and, like, support people

and uplift people

and, you know,

that's something I feel like

he does really well, too.

Michael:

You really have kept

the same inner circle.

Justin:

Yeah.

I think that all of my

relationships

are better than they've been

in a very long time.

( chatter )

♪ Oh, God... ♪

Okay, that was great

execution, boys.

That is what you call

good basketball.

♪ The way you hold me,

hold me, hold me, hold me ♪

♪ Feels so holy... ♪

Nice shot.

Justin:

It's not stuff,

success, things.

It doesn't bring the fulfillment

that we think.

It's relationship,

it's true relationship.

Real secure people

add value to people.

Real secure people

uplift people.

Real secure people

lead with love and humility.

That's what we want.

We want our friends

and our family

to have that disposition

towards us.

I want to continue

to just, like, learn,

grow, and...

- Yeah.

- Yep.

Justin:

I think a lot of people in life

feel like they have

to put on a front

because maybe who they are

isn't good enough.

I want to be the type

of person and leader

who can tell people,

"You don't have to put

on a front.

You don't have to act

a certain way.

Who you are is enough."

( phone line rings )

Yo.

So, we're gonna start talking

a little bit

about the creative

for "SNL"

and, uh, you had some

really good ideas.

Colin:

You can have this really

beautiful blue overhead light

that's over them,

and then on the left and right,

you have these lights

that are just standing

through the set

that are like an orange.

The staging, we--

And at the end,

it's like I'm spotlit

at the end, like,

on the stage. ( sings )

So we have to time it out

in rehearsals, like, perfect.

A simple light,

and then we--

maybe we light Benny

in the background

- and he's been

playing it the whole time.

- Exactly. The whole time.

That could be dope.

I think that's it.

- We got it.

- ( laughs )

Missed me, yo?

Oh, man.

Justin:

I wanted to make something

that was gonna be empowering.

And Chance and I's hearts

aligned in what we want

to accomplish.

What was that?

Was it a four-bar count in?

Both of us are in a place

in our lives

that we want to show

this message of hope.

♪ I hear a lot

about sinners... ♪

I have this hope in my

relationship with God.

I have this hope

with my relationship

with my wife.

♪ That the way you hold me,

hold me, hold me, hold me ♪

"The way you hold me

feels so holy"

It's talking about

that significant other.

A lot of people

may come from a broken family

or might come from a family

that they're now like,

"Ah, I don't want to get married

because of X, Y, Z."

And it's like,

"If Justin can do it.

If Chance is talking about

how beautiful this unity is,

then maybe I can do it,"

you know?

♪ I'm a believer,

my heart is fleshy ♪

♪ Life is short with a temper,

like Joe Pesci ♪

♪ They wanna come

and sing your praises,

your name is catchy ♪

♪ They don't see you how I see

you, Parlay and Desi ♪

♪ Tween, Tween, Hesi,

Those other guys

♪ Hold me, hold me, hold me,

( crowd cheering )

So, you don't use this?

You do.

You pedal and that.

♪ They say we're

too young and ♪

♪ The pimps

and the players say... ♪

♪ Don't go crushin'! ♪

- Yeah.

- You know?

It's-- it's the fact

that it's, like--

it's definite.

Like, you don't--

you don't un-age.

- You know what I mean?

- One thing you know for sure

is you're gonna age,

you're gonna die.

Yeah, yeah.

It's crazy.

I was thinking

the other day.

I was really like,

"I'm in the best place

in my whole life,

right now."

I'm the most fulfilled.

I feel the most stable.

I feel the most secure.

I feel the most confident.

I feel so...

just at peace.

For the first time

in my life,

I don't feel like

I'm striving.

I feel like I know

who God's called me to be,

where I am,

where I'm supposed to be,

I'm walking

the plans of God.

And, like, that's so--

the assurance of that

is amazing.

I love you,

for real, for real.

Michael:

When you go back

and you look at old--

for most people,

it's home videos,

for you,

it's documentaries

and all these different

things-- there's consistency.

Right. All the people

who were there

during that time

when I was 15

and trying to figure it all out

when I was like--

like, they're still

in my life.

And I just think, like,

there's something cool

about, um, saying,

"Hey, how did you feel

during this time?

Do you remember?"

- There we go.

- ( sighs )

( music playing )

♪ Everybody knows my name now ♪

♪ But somethin' 'bout it

still feels strange ♪

♪ Like lookin' in a mirror,

tryna steady yourself ♪

♪ And seein' somebody else... ♪

Justin:

I was so surrounded.

Millions of people

in the audience,

but I still felt lonely,

I still felt misunderstood,

I still felt hurt.

♪ Maybe when I'm older,

it'll all calm down ♪

♪ But it's killin' me now... ♪

I actually teared up

in that video

when I was watching

Jacob Tremblay,

who is an incredible

young actor, play me.

I just had no idea

what was to come.

I had no idea that this life

would take me by storm.

I had no idea

that I would just get sucked up

by all of this stuff.

♪ That's just

oh, so lonely ♪

♪ I'm so lonely ♪

There were so many people

who were just so mean.

Random people saying,

like, "You suck!"

"You look like a girl."

I would shake it off

and act like it didn't

bother me,

but that stuff bothered me,

and then it affected

how I acted

and how I treated people,

and it's just

this ongoing cycle

of, like, hurt people

hurt people.

I just was this

young, like, kid.

♪ I'm so lonely ♪

♪ Lonely ♪

It makes me sad.

You know, I, like,

cry every time.

- It makes you sad?

- Yeah.

I'm watching it and, like,

there's a moment of sadness

for, like, how quickly

it all happened.

Yeah, I mean, like,

it brings you back.

I mean, does it for you?

You're this, like, star

that is supposed to have

it all together.

And you don't realize

the power of just saying,

"Hey, this is

how I'm feeling."

I just kind of let

the insecurities

of everything going on

dictate how I kind

of started to move.

We're looking at it

as, like, "Wow, that--

that sucks.

I'm sorry you went through that.

For real."

So, he was in the booth

the other day for the acoustic.

And he couldn't

get the words out

and he broke down and cried,

and our conversation

before that was like,

"Have you actually spoken

about what this song

actually means to you?"

And you hadn't.

Man, I think that

there was times

where I was really,

really suicidal.

Like, really like,

"Man, is this pain ever

gonna go away?"

It was so consistent.

The pain was so consistent.

I was just suffering, right?

So I'm just like,

"Man, I would rather not

feel this than feel this."

I really do believe

that God works all things

together for good.

And I think sometimes

it's hard to see that

when things are so messy.

And I think that that

allows me to have

this overwhelming confidence.

If I could do it

all over again,

I would've had you in therapy,

day one.

Having someone separate

from all of us to talk to.

And express and everything--

I was 25.

There was so much

that happened that, like,

we didn't take the time

to explain,

but it's because

I didn't even think

to explain it to you.

And then I'm watching it

and I'm like,

"Wow, there are

so many tragedies

that could've been avoided."

But then, by the end,

I'm like, "There he is, though."

And I know that person.

I know you.

- Justin: Yeah.

- And I'm like, "Well,

this is a celebration."

I just would encourage people,

like, hey,

if you're feeling lonely,

talk about it.

Say it out loud.

There's a freedom in that.

I could've avoided

a lot of pain.

All right, let's see.

It's amazing that you

brought us back

to where, for me,

it all started with Justin,

to Atlanta, Georgia.

A kid with the floppy hair

that no one really knows

what to expect.

And now I can say

he is the biggest entertainer

alive right now.

And he is surrounded

by good, beautiful people.

( crowd cheers )

Man, I can't believe

that was that long ago.

That was five-- five,

four and a half years ago?

Four and a half years ago.

A lot has happened,

obviously, in four

and a half years.

I mean, how many kids

have you had since then?

Since then?

Two.

- You got married.

- Two kids, you got married.

Both of us.

We've gotten married since then.

We're more present now

than any of those times,

any of those videos.

I'll take it a step further.

I'm glad you're alive.

- Yeah.

- For sure.

There were sometimes there

where I was like...

( exhales )

Okay, we got another day.

If you were

to tell me right now,

when he was 16...

I'm going in pizza shops

and just getting in

people's face.

- Yeah.

- Bro, what are you doing?

Now our conversations are like,

"The trip's gonna be so great.

I can't wait.

Like, 'SNL's' gonna be great."

Now there's a joy in the work

and a pleasure in the work.

And, like, there isn't

like a hard stop

of when it ends

'cause we're all just

gonna go spend time together

afterwards anyway.

No, we-- we got to,

you know, do all this

cool stuff.

We made some mistakes

along the way,

but that perspective, like,

look at what we get to do.

I mean, to be able

to sit here and reminisce.

- Yeah.

- And have it filmed.

And, like, you know,

tell the story.

Right?

Like, it's just...

Because right now,

the door is opening.

- Like, we get to have this

filmed so that now we can...

- It's cool.

...hopefully tell this story

and make a difference

in somebody else's world.

You know?

( chatter )

Michael:

You said to me, "I want

to have Eddie Benjamin

be a part of this

because he's the next

generation.

And I wish I had a mentor."

Love it.

How did you deal

with kind of this

immense pressure

from such a young age?

Well, I just say that

I didn't handle it

very well for a while.

I think I let the, you know,

insecurities and the fears

of, um-- kind of win

in a sense, of, like, I--

I felt like everyone

wanted to have control

over my life.

I felt like there was so many

people who wanted me to be--

so I rebelled against that,

and I wanted to go

the complete opposite way.

How did you deal

with, like, kind of

the opinions

and the differences

in creative choices?

There's gonna people

who come around

who just want to take,

take, take, take, take.

And if you're looking

at the people who

are just taking--

you know and you're--

you don't want to listen

to their opinion.

You gotta listen to the people

who are feeding into your life,

and giving you, you know--

and I just--

I would just encourage you

to listen to those people and--

because you have

so much ahead of you, bro.

Like, I'm so excited

to watch your journey.

I'm so excited to watch you

blossom into this incredible

artist.

Michael:

At 26, you are really

in a position

where you can give a ton

of powerful advice.

Why are you choosing

to go and do things like that?

It becomes an actual

honor and a privilege

to help people.

There's such a fulfillment

there.

All:

to help people,

that's just want

I want to do.

Even the story of Jesus,

he came to serve.

He gave us a template

looks like,

I'd like

to readdress the donut.

- Oh, God.

- That donut was fine.

- Do not.

- I already-- I put them there.

- That's disgusting.

- You are a gross mother--

( muffled )

I put them there.

It doesn't matter who put

them in the garbage.

It didn't touch anything.

It is a disgusting trash can

in Madison Square Garden.

- I'm sorry.

- The box wasn't even in--

Guys, we're in the middle

of COVID and you're still

gonna fight with me?

- He just left it there.

- It's in a rogue hallway.

It's literally--

what's the difference?

It was sitting

on the top layer in a box.

None of this--

this is an edge that's up.

Edge. Everything's

in the box, still.

If it was in the garbage,

I could see where that

would be a problem.

But we can clearly see

these donuts--

Look at this-- look at this

tattered side.

How do you know nothing slid

down, went back up.

You don't know.

Grow up, Allison.

Grow up? You're the one

eating donuts from the garbage.

I put them there!

I don't care.

He's out.

He left. He's gone.

Just lay down.

Enjoy yourself.

Lay down. You have a lot.

You have a good life.

There's no reason for you

to be acting like this.

A great life, a great family.

I kept it all these years.

I got this in the trash.

Eat it.

This is the exact same donut

I pulled out of that

damn trash can,

and it's still good

to this damn day.

A decade later.

Why are we still

talking about the donut?
