Here’s an excerpt interview with Billboard. Justin talks about breaking up with Selena Gomez.
Billboard: There’s been all this back-and-forth with both you and Selena Gomez separately covering “Cry Me a River.” The blogs have a field day speculating about what happened to your relationship.
Justin: There’s so many rumors. People say I call Selena every day and she won’t pick up the phone or I’m chasing her down, and these are all fake stories.Do you pay attention?
I don’t go on blogs or anything like that. I hear things. People tell me if something happens on the Internet. It gets back to me, definitely.Listening to the new songs, it seems like it’s been a wearying time for you. “Yellow Raincoat” has the line, “Fame, money and girls drive you crazy.” And of course “Nothing Like Us,” it’s kind of heavy. Are you having fun?
Definitely, all of the time. I’m 18. I have a great team around me. I have great friends. We have a blast. They keep me occupied and my mind off of the negative things. It’s funny when people are like, “You’re 18. What have you really gone through?” I’m thinking, “What do you mean? When you were 18, you don’t think that you went through stuff?” When you are 18, you’re going through that transition. You have a high school girlfriend, you might not. Going to college. Figuring yourself out, leaving home.That’s one of the reasons that I like “Nothing Like Us.” You manage to take this very real, young feeling and make it universal. I like that the song was sweet. Scooter told me you wrote it about what happened with Selena, but he didn’t tell me what it sounded like. And if you read the blogs, you think it might be an angry song. Instead, it feels.
Because at the end of the day, there’s nothing like us, you know? That’s just it. It is what it is. People are going to relate to that.You’re pretty heartbroken?
I’m not in the happiest place that I’ve ever been. I’m trying to get through what I’m going through. Like I said, I have my really close friends to cheer me up and keep me going.

Stay Strong Juju I believe in you <3
I hope he gets over it and starts dating that Victoria Secret Model Babara.
Uh no I don’t think he should start dating that Victoria Secret Model Babara. She seems to fake, she seems to be ALL ABOUT HER SELF! Don’t you think Justin should be single for a while, and then maybe date a fan? Like me or you or anything other fan?
he will not date a fan. He will be dating celebrities only.
Idk who he dated or if that model but i hope he is staying strong.I love him and i only want the best for him.
Yeah but he will only date a celebrity and it would be illegal if he dated me im 15.
@mallory i agree with u about the dating a fan part but false about Barbra!
I knew she was going to break his heart. This is not even funny , like she is so ughhh stupid. Only her would such a bad thing to him. But its whatever , Justin move on she doesn’t deserves someone like you. You can do so much better find another girl. You are sweeet and kind. I love you.
@my babe justin u don’t know what happen sooo stfu ! He could of did something to mess up the relationship but everybody is trying to make him the victim of a “heart-break” its probably all his fought and he is sad because he lost a good girl and his first love ijs
Just Stay strong and carry on…. Life might try to tear you down but you’ve got to believe… Because we will always believe in you. Love you justin.
JUSTIN IS RIGHT !
jelena is for life
#BELIEVEINJELENA
Stfu! Can’t u get it in ur mind that Jelena is no more.
hahahaha lol cant stop hahaha lol!!!
Jashy u r too funny but it true Jelena is no more!!! (i laughed about how Jashy said her comment!)

Did Justin break up with her or Selena broke up with him? Or did they agree to break each other up?
Selena broke up with him (I think,someone correct me if im wrong)
U r right!
Deffo! Right.
yes she broke up with him. at least none of them is angry about it only one is sad but you move on.
Thanks guys i just knew Selena wasen’t right for him.She dated Justin for all the wrong reasons. *Sigh*
And you guys know this how?? No one has facts about the break-up just rumor-guessing !
selena broke with him
Yes he did
Yes she did
this is bad for justin.. i love jelena..
selena don’t think that she was a lucky girl in this world. u know why? selena had bf like JUSTIN.. then she did that? ohhh its so sad.
Justin deserves much better
i’m just sad and very heartbroken to. I just wish that they will get back together. there so meant for each other. hope one day they can reconcile.. i miss them so mcuh. and wish that tehy can always stay together.
they are not meant to be together and Justin will find a girl who loves him not his fame and money
Justin would never date a fan. when he can date other celebs. Pls if he dates a fan. she probably get hate to. and would be only after his fame and money. as Selena she has her own money and is well known from Barney. she doesn’t need Justin’s money. She loved Justin for who he was and not want he had. Justin loved Selena so much.
u said it she’s well known from Barney from the 5 years old kids
of course she’s so thirsty for fame she dated nick, taylor, that one from glee and Justin and who knows who’s her next victim and NEVER SAY NEVER Justin said that he will date anyone he’ll fall for and it doesn’t matter if it’s a fan plus we don’t care about his fame or money unlike some bitches 
Seriously, I’m sure Selena and Justin RS is complicated and very private. I don’t think Justin and selena want to share everything that’s going on between them. some things should be kept private. between them. I highly doubt Justin would ever date a fan. pls he’s just being nice so he wouldn’t hurt his fans feelings I bet Selena still loves Justin very much even though there not together anymore. BTW, I bet Justin next GF will probably get hate, and Justin can’t be single forever.
Beiber if u r happy with her baby carry on.
This break up showed me her true colours !!! A famewhore and I just realized that if it wasn’t for Justin she wouldn’t have this much of so much attention! I really really don’t like her! How could she? I knew that when they break up she is the one who is going Ti break his heart! Now I wonder who is her next victim ?
Ikr! I don’t want her to be with justin, again.
She insults him in public by trying to make people think he cheated on her, her friends diss him every where in twitter and YouTube , and breaks his heart and over all of that he writes her love songs showing that he appreciates her?!?!?!? Well fine! They say that their is an upcoming album for her and Taylor has been writing songs with her(and u know Taylor ) well if Selena trashes Justin in any of her songs I’ll trash her worse! And Justin move on… You’ll find some one who is write for you
Justin baby you are amazing and any girl that cant see that see stuipd and dumb me amd over 25 millon beliebers mixed with fans love you and will always be there for you…and just to tell you believe acoustic is heart-stopping i never people can die and come back but i did(: i love you baby
You deserve MUCH better Justin.I love you you make us proud every day!Can’t wait too buy BELIEVE ACOUSTIC TODAY!!!!!
Justin you are beautiful. You are very impulsive. You never can. I dont speak english but I love you. Be strong.
OK Justin we know you are heartbroken k but it seems like you just need to move on. Look didnt anybody see after the break up Selena went to I guess to a party (it looked like party) and Justin being all depress sending stupid sad pics saying “all alone” and shiz like that. Justin not all of us are going to take pitty on you OK!!! I love u, but move on(I didnt im not a belieber cause i am just not taking pitty)
¡te queirro con todo de mi corazón!

Imissallcoments
Damn. I always seem to have an intuition. For a while, I supported their relationship, but I didn’t like it. Why? Because I knew that it wasn’t going to last and it was gonna get messed up somehow. I can’t say I hate Selena, but it seems like the drama’s all her fault. Well, along with the stupid media (it’s always their fault in a way), but the media wouldn’t have anything to bitch about if she hadn’t retweeted that picture along with the “….”- the death tweet. Like seriously, it’s a picture. You’re acting like they were holding hands or kissing or something. Then all of a sudden, there was a chain reaction- the media started a bunch of shit, hypocritical Rihanna and Demi Lovato unfollowed him, her fans started being rude to him, and Jelena fans got irritated. Then the media turned on Justin and gave him a lot of f*cking problems. See how one thing lead to another? But I like how Justin expresses his feelings and is trying to get through it. I’t's really a shame, but he’ll eventually be able to say “It has come to pass!” Much love, stay strong…
I could never agree more
Thanks
agree in every single word, justin stay strong, you got great friends around you .Love U
I agree with every darn word you said
AGREED W/ YOU ON EVERYTHING!!!!Its just that she dated him for all the WRONG reasons.
Sorry that I haven’t replied to anyone except for @The real biebah. I left the site before you said anything. Don’t want anyone to think that I’m rude. Anyway, thanks for agreeing with me. Some people wouldn’t give a damn if other people agreed or not, but I do because it’s helpful when other people share your view. So thanks.

Awh.. I feel so bad for Justin.. Hate seing my baby all heartbroken and sad
Dear Justin: I hope that your heart heal soon.Iam here for you baby,I love you so much oxoxox for you.
Beliebers!!!!! Please watch this & Like and subscribe PLS :* …. Thank YOUH
People should respect whoever he’s date with. I think they both are hurting. How can she stay if beliebers still hate on her for over 2 years? If i was her, i would leaving. They’re truly in love but i think they done for good. #respect
just if selena gomez goes back to justin bieber she must be so palthic , love david conway
dear justin ,
i love you so much .You are the best singer ever. I love all of your song but they
are touching.But the one about selena is very sad and I dont
get why she dose not want you.If I was her I would want you.
I have everything of you and i follow you on interent every day
and all day i am the biggest fanned ever.
it his fault they broke up in the first place. he’s a man whore.
how??? what did he do but take a picture with Barbara and it automatically makes him supposedly cheating when they obviously didn’t go to the lion king alone…like really why cheat with a damn audience…its like suicide for celebs to do that..so come on be more relevant next time on why he is a manwhore because it seems as to me Justin didn’t do anything wrong in the eyes of us…but hey we both don’t know shit so its really a question on whos fault is it? and don’t answer that because you know jack.
These comments are hilarious. I love how 90% of you act as though you know what happened, as if you were there. Don’t make assumptions about things you don’t know anything about.
justin stay strong all the beliebers believe in you<3
I luv you my babe, Justin.. Dont just get stuck up on this tricky, mad, vast, confusing and elusive world.. Be what you are not what other wants you to be.. luv ya!
I know its normal but can’t still figure out why it hurts me to know that justin an selena aint together
