Justin Bieber Takes A Beating In The New Issue Of Complex

Justin Bieber covers Complex's 10th anniversary issue, and not only is the 18-year-old pop star getting socked in the face for this photo shoot, but he opens up about some very adult issues in his interview with the mag.

On his relationship with Selena Gomez:

“There’s no way to hide the relationship completely, because then it would be unfair to us. It’s like, ‘You take this car, and I’ll take this car, and then we’ll meet up at the spot. Then, you go in this door, I’ll go in this door. We’ll end up crossing ways. You get back in this car. We’ll cross over, do a James Bond. You go through the kitchen. I’ll go through the back area. Then we’ll meet in the dressing room and see each other.’ At that point, it’s not even a relationship. You’re just hiding from everyone. That’s unfair and unhealthy, man.”

On the paparazzi:

"I’ll be covering my face and it pisses me off so much when people say, 'Get over it, Justin. You’re famous. People are going to take your picture. Suck it up, you’re rich…' It’s like, 'Yo, I just got off an eight-hour flight. I’m tired and my eyes have bags under them. I’m not trying to take pictures. I’m not going to come to your house, wake you up, and start snapping your picture.'"

Justin may not be wearing a purity ring, but he it sounds like he does have a strict policy when it comes to drugs. Scooter Braun, Justin’s manager, recalls a conversation the two had about drugs recently, and he tells the mag, "[Justin] called me and said 'Do you know why I’m never going to do that stuff? Because I know you’d walk in and beat the sh*t out of me.'"

So what's with the boxing-themed cover shoot? Bieber's father is a former MMA fighter, and the "Boyfriend" singer is a big fan of the boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. Check out the video below for more behind-the-scenes footage of the Biebs, and click thru to see his alternate cover shot!
