Last week Justin Bieber made a joke on Snapchat many assumed was calling out One Direction for choosing the same Nov. 13 release date as his much anticipated fourth studio album, believed to be titled Purpose. . Now it appears Bieber doubled down last week with some more serious commentary in a radio interview with New Zealand's Smash! The Edge on Thursday.
"They're not really going on the road much, but we're talking about them right now, so it gives them some promo, right?" he said. "So, that’s probably why they did it... I think it was strategy on their part because my release date was first."
Bieber was clear to make sure it wasn't getting to him, though, as he continued, "But whatever. It's whatever. It's going to be fun. I'm excited to see what happens."
LOL not Bieber Talking about promo when he is currently having Massive Promo & perfoming all over the world 1D have so far only 2 perfomances of Drag Me Down!!
Is he mad why he dont change the album release date!
One Direction isn't saying anything........ Justin seems kinda scared tbh, I think it would really bruise his ego if his album got blocked from the #1 spot by 1D, after what some claim as a "super awaited" comeback. Plus, they definitely replaced him as the "tween royalty" act back in 2012-2013 and have remained in that position since.
