Los Angeles, CA – Pop superstar Justin Bieber has reportedly sold his entire music catalog for $200 million, a move sources claim was driven by severe financial difficulties. Despite earning close to $1 billion over his career, the 31-year-old singer is said to be “completely broke,” according to industry insiders.
Bieber, who rose to fame as a teen idol with hits like “Baby” and “Sorry,” has amassed a fortune through record sales, world tours, and endorsements since his debut in 2009.
However, sources close to the artist allege that years of lavish spending, poor investments, and legal battles have depleted his wealth. “He was living way beyond his means,” one insider told Billboard. “Private jets, mansions, cars, and a big entourage—it all added up.”

The catalog sale, finalized with an undisclosed buyer, includes rights to Bieber’s extensive discography, which has generated millions of streams worldwide.
The $200 million deal mirrors recent high-profile catalog sales by artists like Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, though Bieber’s financial distress sets his case apart.

Bieber’s representatives have not commented on the reports. Fans expressed shock on social media, with many questioning how the star could burn through nearly a billion dollars. “It’s heartbreaking to think he’s in this position,” one fan posted on X.
The news comes as Bieber has largely stepped back from music, focusing on personal ventures and his health after revealing a Ramsay Hunt syndrome diagnosis in 2022. Industry experts suggest the sale could provide a financial lifeline, but it remains unclear if it will fully resolve his reported money troubles.
