We've been talking a lot about Justin Bieber lately, and especially concerning his relationship with fans.
The Purpose Tour has been eventful with mic drops and sudden concert interruptions. It has also brought him to give previews of new songs, and to play alone in small venues without notice.
Bieber also cancelled all meet-and-greets on his tour, and has said that he would not take photos with fans anymore. There was even a moment where he deleted his Instagram account.
Overall, it seems the Canadian singer is a bit stressed.
Bodyguards: Secret Lives from the Watchtower, is an upcoming documentary on the lives of the people who protect celebrities. In it, we are treated to the team around Bieber, and how they helped him gain control again of his sanity. They explain how intense it can be for the star to be constantly surrounded by untamed crowds, and the never-ending demand.

“Having security creates space for me, it creates boundaries, it creates a safe place for me,” said the singer. “As the fans get older and are knowing themselves more, they start understanding how to act and they actually want to act a little bit more sane so that maybe they get my attention because at this point they’re screaming and super overwhelming, it’s hard for me to connect with you.”
Where his fans once were uncontrollable girls ready to rip anything that he was wearing, they are now older, and more ready to engage the famous musician into more poised conversations.
In this documentary, we will also dive into the worlds that surround artists such as 50 Cent and Kanye West.
Bodyguards: Secret Lives from the Watchtower will be released in theatres on Dec. 2, 2016.
