Justin Bieber admits ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez inspired a few of the songs on his upcoming album. The pop star stopped by Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on Thursday to dish about what fans can expect with his new music. Watch the video below.
“There is a lot of stuff that I’ve been going through over the last few years,” says Bieber. “I just really want to bleed it on this record. I want people to know that I’m not playing around. I’m not doing a record that is cookie cutter or doing something that I think people want to hear… I’ve been pretty silent about what I’ve been going through and just growing up in this life is hard, so I want to translate that.”
As Gossip Cop previously reported, Gomez’s song, “The Heart Wants What It Wants,” is a reflection of the singer’s relationship with Bieber. He tells Seacrest that while he doesn’t plan on directly responding to the ballad, their on-and-off romance did help him come up with material. “A lot of my inspiration comes from her,” admits Bieber.
“It was a long relationship and a relationship that created heartbreak and created happiness and a lot of different emotions that I wanted to write about, so there’s a lot of that on this album,” adds Bieber.
