During the sit-down, the singer said, “[After] the new album, I’m actually retiring, man. I’m retiring.”
Bieber’s Journals album comes out next week, at the end of his 10-week Music Mondays project.
But a source close to the teen superstar tells Gossip Cop he was simply joking when it came to the retirement bit.
Of course, Bieber is known among close pals to be a practical joker — and has not yet fulfilled his life’s goal of winning a Grammy.
Bieber’s full radio interview airs on Wednesday, but you can check out the retirement exchange below.
