Justin Bieber Reveals Former Hit He Can’t Stand: Is It Because Of A Selena Gomez Reference?

A LOT has changed for Justin Bieber since he got his start in the music industry, and he’s admitting to not liking some of the music he’s previously put out! Could it be because this particular song includes a very specific reference to his ex, Selena Gomez?!

There’s nothing like old school Justin Bieber, 21, tunes! But for the Biebs himself, there’s some old songs he’s recorded that he actually doesn’t enjoy listening back to…and one of them was a major hit single. Find out which of his own tracks Justin can’t stand right here!

“I never really liked “Beauty and a Beat,”” he admitted on Bert Weiss’ radio show, of the song he recorded with Nicki Minaj, 33, and put out as a single at the end of 2012. “But I understood what it was at the time. And it was music that was popular at that time, as well. But I was never really a huge fan of that song.” Umm…WHAT? “Beauty and the Beat” is SUCH a jam!

What’s interesting, is that that track specifically names a VERY important person in Justin’s life: His on-off love, Selena Gomez, 23. During her verse, Nicki raps, “Justin Bieber, you know I’mma hit ’em with the ether, guns out, wiener, but I gotta keep an eye out for Selen-er.” Could Sel be the reason the 21-year-old has such bad memories of this tune?!

Even so, Justin had nothing but great things to say about the “Hands To Myself” singer during his interview. “She loves me,” he said. “No, I love her too, always.”And when he was shown a photo of Christopher Mason, the hot guy in Selena’s new music video, he couldn’t help but show his envy. “What is she trying to do to my heart?!” he asks. “Who’s this guy? He’s a joke! This guy’s a chump.” Oh man!

But, for right now, Jelena is definitely off — Selena even said she is “beyond done” talking about her ex in interviews! And the Biebs has proven that he’s (at least temporarily!) moved on…with Hailey Baldwin, 19. The two have been on a tropical vacation with his family since right after Christmas, and confirmed that they’re more than friends by flaunting major PDA on Instagram. Oo-la-la!

HollywoodLifers, are you shocked that Justin can’t stand “Beauty and a Beat”? Do you think it’s because of Selena?
