Canadian singer-songwriter, Justin Bieber, has labelled the rumours that he plans to leave music for church ministry as fake news.
The 26-year-old cleared the air on his verified Instagram handle on Monday after a report by Page Six claimed that Bieber was training to become a minister for Hillsong.
“I’m not studying to become a minister or anything even close to that, I have no desire for that, this is fake news,” he posted on his Instagram Story.
The Intentions singer also denied being a member of the Hillsong Church where his former mentor pastor Carl Lentz was dismissed late last year over infidelity.
“And by the way, Hillsong is not my church. For clarity, I am part of Churchome,” the Changes singer said, adding that “Church is not a place. We are the church. We don’t need a building to connect with God. God is with us wherever we are.”
