Justin Bieber Begs For Major Change

It's no secret that Justin Bieber and the paparazzi don't exactly get along. He's had many unfortunate run-ins with photographers over the years and has been especially vocal in speaking out against them recently. Now, he's calling for a change.

On Thursday, Bieber shared a video on Instagram that provided an example of the sort of harassment he faces regularly from the paparazzi. In the video, Bieber stepped out into the street in Los Angeles and was immediately hit with a barrage of flashbulbs from photographers in the street as he tried to get to his car.

"Look at these guys, man," Bieber could be heard saying over and over in the video as he filmed the photographers.

This video came after Bieber had a high-profile run-in with some photographers in the Palm Springs area when he went out to the California desert for the Coachella Music Festival.

Clearly, Bieber has been especially frustrated by the paparazzi recently, and he voiced that frustration on social media on Friday morning, going as far as to ask God for strength and patience as he deals with them.

 "BELIEVE GOD IS MY LION," Bieber wrote in the caption of a post on Instagram showing a photo of a lion. "MY STRONG LEADER! ABLE TO FIGHT FOR ME ON MY BEHALF. I BELIEVE WHEREVER I AM, HE IS. IM CURRENTLY ASKING HIM TO HELP ME WITH PATIENCE BECAUSE It CAN BE REALLY HARD TO NOT RIP THESE [freaking] GUYS HEADS OFF."

"THROUGH THE CHAOS SOMEHOW GOD ALWAYS BRINGS ME BACK TO HIMSELF," Bieber continued in the post.

Bieber elaborated a little bit on how he is currently dealing with the stress he feels regarding the paparazzi.

"Today I’m forgiving myself for my own selfishness, AND forgiving THOSE WHO SEEK TO USE AND ABUSE ME SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO CAPITaLIze off of me, Or Their jealousy makes them want to make me feel small like how they feel," he wrote. "However u slice it I’m getting hit from all angles."

That said, Bieber understands that he chose to live in Los Angeles, where he faces a lot more media and paparazzi attention than he would if he chose to live somewhere else.

"And I’m no victim," he added. "I moved to LA KNOWING ITS [expletive] OUT HERE."

Still, Bieber used his platform to call for a major change as the pop star made it clear that he would like to see laws changed to prevent the sort of harassment that he receives from paparazzi.

"But can we as a unit align with how [expletive] it is out here and change this [stuff] or are we gonna let these [expletive] boys keep treating me like [expletive] and not change laws or anything," Bieber wrote.

Bieber pointed out that people have actually died as a result of the paparazzi, pointing to Princess Diana, who passed away in a car accident in Paris back in 1997 while attempting to flee photographers.

"People have had to die cuz of this [stuff]," Bieber wrote. "Princess Diana is the first that comes to mind smh."

"We gotta do better please can we make a change?" Bieber begged.

Clearly, Bieber has had enough of the papazzi and desperately wants change.
