Remember how Justin Bieber owes his former manager a lot of money? Like a lot a lot?? It seems Hailey is about to bail him out!
We heard last month the Biebs still owed Scooter Braun millions! The Hollywood Reporter got the scoop: JB received a $40 million advance from tour promoter AEG for the Justice World Tour. But since it got canceled, he had to pay the money back — and Scooter covered $26 mil of it!
That was a loan to Justin, said the outlet’s source. And they claim he hasn’t paid much of it back either! Supposedly the reason he wasn’t keen to shell out the cash was because he believed Scooter had been overpaid on commissions, and owed him! The story made a pretty good case the whole source of their feud was this financial disagreement.

Well, that may soon be a thing of the past. TMZ reports this week that they’re close to an agreement! The outlet heard the peace talks came about thanks to their documentary TMZ Investigates: What Happened to Justin Bieber. Supposedly their independent investigation finally showed Justin the real numbers! The financial firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers determined Bieber actually still owed Scooter for commissions — $8.6 mil!
Apparently Scooter still says $11 mil, but who’s counting? When he’s willing to accept “pennies on the dollar” for all that money, that is. But HYBE America needs that $26 million. And Justin is finally going to make the rest of the payments on that, too!
Only… it seems he may be paying with his sugar momma’s money! Per the outlet:
“We’re told Scooter’s company wants Justin to cough up the $26 mil, and now that Hailey Bieber is flush with cash after selling her beauty company, Rhode, we’re told Justin has agreed to make good on the debt.”
OK, so now that his wife is a billionaire, now he’s willing to pay up? Sounds like Hailey is paying her man’s debt.
So we guess… he’s standing on her business?
