Biebers Bring The Socal Pda In Intimate Wyouth Debut Shoot

Biebers Turn Up the PDA for WYouth

Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber turn the dial up on romantic vibes in the debut issue of WYouth, the new print magazine aimed at teens. Shot on a Contax point-and-shoot, the couple’s snapshots are deliciously intimate — think mid-makeout moments, a shirtless Justin dozing under the sheets, and close-ups of the pair cuddling in bed. It’s the kind of low-fi, Malibu-style candor that reads like a private Polaroid from a Hollywood afterparty.

Their photos also land at a time when the pair have been battling tabloid chatter in the public eye. In 2025 they quieted split rumors with lip-locking pictures on social media and the release of “Swag” and “Swag II,” records that nudge at Justin’s personal life on tracks like “Go Baby” and “I Think You're Special.” The WYouth spread doubles as a cozy rebuttal — showing them affectionate and very much together.

Behind the Contax – Scenes from the Shoot

The aesthetic here is intentionally DIY. These aren’t glossy, staged magazine frames — they’re candid slices of life captured on a handheld camera. That makes the images feel immediate and unfiltered, like something you’d pass around your friend group on a Venice Beach boardwalk rather than scroll past on an algorithm.

You can practically hear the shutter click as the couple leans into each other. The choice of a Contax point-and-shoot lends the photos a warm nostalgia – perfect for a publication trying to bridge teen curiosity with old-school, tactile appeal.

“We wanted something tangible that feels like a shared secret you can pull out of your bag and pass to a friend,” said one of the magazine’s editors, summing up the tactile vibe behind WYouth.

What They Love – Songs, Films and Chill Habits

The Biebers used the feature to share personal favorites in a ways that feel like a late-night conversation. Hailey revealed Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” as her go-to karaoke jam, while Justin tipped his hat to Chris Brown’s “With You” – a nod to a 2008 YouTube clip of him singing the R&B hit that has since racked up more than 65 million views.

They also swapped picks for movies and books. Justin named “The Grinch” and the Bible among his touchstones, and Hailey listed the rom-com “The Break-Up” – starring Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn – alongside the children’s book series “Angelina Ballerina,” a nostalgic favorite from her childhood.

Down Time and Destinations

When it comes to recharging, both admitted they favor the spa. Their favorite cities split between New York and Los Angeles – a bi-coastal love story that fits their lives in music and fashion. For holidays, they’re fans of the classic American duo – Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Asked to pick an all-time favorite artist, they both laughed it off as too hard to choose – a very LA-level shrug when the options feel endless.

Where They’ve Been in 2025 – Music, Rumors and Starry Nights

The pair have kept busy outside the studio too. Recently they attended the wedding of Jordyn Woods and NBA champion Karl-Anthony Towns, joining a celeb-studded guest list that included Kylie Jenner, Timothée Chalamet, Ali and Jalen Brunson, and Shannon and Josh Hart. The event read like another stop on their well-documented social calendar.

Musically, Justin’s recent releases and the public displays of affection have served as a clear answer to persistent breakup speculation. Between the songs, the photos and the public appearances, they’ve been sketching a narrative of continuity and commitment in plain sight.

WYouth’s Launch – A Print Reboot for Teens

WYouth arrives Sept. 15 as a twice-yearly title from W magazine editor-in-chief Sara Moonves and editor Ava Nirui. The launch opens in a landscape where print teen titles have faded – Seventeen stopped monthly print issues in 2018, and Teen Vogue folded into Vogue in 2025 – so the timing feels like a deliberate bet on analog cool.

Sofia Coppola contributes an opening text, and the magazine positions itself as a break from constant scrolling – a small, physical object meant to be shared among friends. The founders hope it channels a bit of pre-internet clarity for a generation swamped by screens – something tangible with a touch of West Coast ease.
