If you, like us, were concerned that Justin Bieber’s drop-crotch pants addiction might be permanent, you can exhale: The star is doing a James Dean thing in the pages of Teen Vogue‘s May issue.
Rocking flannel, leather, an assortment of ribbed tank tops and his gem-encrusted cross, Bieber strikes a number of pensive poses throughout, even revealing the one thing he always wears: Le Labo Santal 33 cologne. Fancy!
In the interview, Bieber addresses all the unusual stories about him lately, but says he embraces his critics: “Every time a hater visits my YouTube page, I get, like, four cents. So tell the haters to keep hating, keep commenting, because I’m making money.”
Here’s hoping he uses that money to buy the great clothes from the shoot!
