Justin Bieber Flips Off Media Over Baby Jack’s Name Slip
Just scrolling through my feed and suddenly Justin Bieber is schooling a media outlet on his son’s name—and yes, he literally dropped a middle finger emoji. So here’s the lowdown: on June 13, Complex shared a carousel of photos of Justin and 9-month-old Jack Blues Bieber with the caption “Justin and Jack Blue Bieber.” Bieber didn’t pause for a PR team to weigh in—he jumped straight into the comments with a curt correction: “It’s jack blues” followed by the infamous ????. No soft landing, no apology, just pure dad-mode enforcement of proper name etiquette.
This clap-back landed a day before what would be Bieber’s first Father’s Day since he and Hailey welcomed Jack in August 2024. If you rewind, on August 23, Justin officially introduced the little guy on Instagram with a sweet “WELCOME HOME” post featuring Hailey cradling Jack’s tiny foot and spelling out “JACK BLUES BIEBER.” But parenthood has come with its own rumor mill: whispers about Justin’s health struggles and marital friction surfaced after he dropped cryptic Instagram captions like “Tired of transactional relationships” on June 8. Cue the speculation.
Thankfully, Justin can pivot to playful territory faster than you can say “porpoise.” On June 15, he shared an Instagram Story of a porpoise leaping from the waves, captioned “How I feel when @haileybieber gets home.” And Hailey’s not letting the chatter ruffle her designer-led feathers either—she told Vogue last month, “It’s not real,” when asked about the split rumors. She praised Justin for being her postpartum rock: “He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win.’”
If you’re looking for more proof the Biebers are still in sync, they teamed up in April 2025 on a leather jacket collab for Justin’s Skylrk brand; they hit the Aspen slopes in January; banked a sweet anniversary post in September; and went full PDA mode at the lake three months after Jack’s arrival. Each snapshot is a reminder that behind the Instagram soundbites, they’re building a tight-knit family unit.
So yeah, Justin’s middle finger moment is less about controversy and more about a dad laying down the law—Bieber style. Anyway, that’s the deal. Do with it what you will.
