Justin Bieber knows all about the pressures, and the importance of your mental health and he’s standing up for Simone Biles. The star gymnast, Simone Biles, shocked the world pulling out of the Tokyo Olympic Games for mental health reasons.
Justin advocated for Simone in a heartfelt Instagram post on Wednesday: “Nobody will ever understand the pressures you face!” Bieber captioned a photo of Biles.
“I know we don’t know each other but I’m so proud of the decision to withdraw. It’s as simple as, ‘What does it mean to gain the whole world but forfeit your soul?’” “Sometimes our ‘NOs’ are more powerful than our ‘YESes.’ When what you normally love starts to steal your joy it’s important we take a step back to evaluate why,” he continued.
Bieber concluded his statement by reflecting on his own experiences prioritizing mental health over work. “People thought I was crazy for not finishing the purpose tour but it was the best thing I could have done for my mental health!” he wrote. “So proud of you.”
It takes strength to admit weakness, and the world is still cheering for Simone Biles.
