Justin Bieber is seen in public after facing criticism over his World Cup final performance
In an Instagram post shared by People, Justin and Hailey Bieber can be seen arriving for dinner on Monday evening. The couple visited The Corner Store in SoHo, New York City. Justin walked closely behind Hailey as they entered the restaurant. The appearance followed Sunday’s FIFA World Cup final.
Justin was seen wearing a light green hoodie over a green shirt. He paired the outfit with baggy jeans and white sneakers. The singer also wore dark sunglasses during the outing. Several images captured him with a subdued expression.
The public appearance came after people had criticised Justin’s FIFA halftime show online. He performed “Everything Hallelujah” during the star-studded production. Madonna, BTS, and Coldplay also performed in the halftime entertainment. His performance attracted widespread reactions across social media.
Many viewers felt Justin’s song slowed the show’s overall energy. One fan commented, “Who plays that kinda song in World Cup……brought the vibe down.” Another wrote, “Poor performance.” Others simply described the performance as “Boring.”
Another viewer compared Justin’s set with BTS’ performance. The fan wrote, “BTS delivering a banger performance then Justin Bieber comes out and genuinely puts me to sleep.” This criticism has now spread across social media platforms. However, Justin has not responded publicly to online reactions.
Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 to win the 2026 FIFA World Cup title. The victory secured Spain’s second World Cup championship since 2010. The halftime show has become one of the event’s biggest talking points. Justin’s performance continues to fuel debates even after the final has ended.
