Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez 2016: He Sings Taylor Swift's 'I Knew You Were Trouble' [VIDEO]
Justin Bieber sang a cover of Taylor Swift's “I Knew You Were Trouble” on his friend Martin Garrix’s Snapchat days ago.
Although Swift has made it clear that she is no fan of Bieber, likely due to his past relationship with her best friend, Selena Gomez, the 22-year-old singer didn't hesitate to give his best rendition of her hit song at the end of last month.
"The clip of Justin recording the song was apparently taken on June 27 before he took the stage for his Nashville stop on the Purpose tour," Hollywood Life reported. "In the clip Justin sports a palm tree covered shirt while strumming on his acoustic guitar and singing the verse, 'I knew you were trouble when you walked in/So shame on me now/Flew me to places I’d never been.'"
In April, after Bieber and Gomez briefly reunited after his Los Angeles Purpose Tour show, a source claimed Swift was encouraging Gomez to cut ties with the playboy once and for all.
“Taylor has been pretty quiet about voicing her opinion on Justin, but she’s now speaking up about him again to Selena,” the source told Hollywood Life at the time. “After what he pulled at the iHeartRadio Awards, Taylor really wants her to cut ties with Justin once and for all. None of this back and forth stuff. Taylor has been telling Selena that once she makes a commitment to shut the door on him completely, she will meet the true man of her dreams.”
Around the same time, Bieber reportedly began blaming Swift for his issues with Gomez.
“Justin knows Taylor doesn’t like him and never will and the feeling is mutual, but he is smart enough to know not to say anything in public or on social media because he knows all the scrutiny he’d endure,” a source tells Hollywood Life. “He never expects to be her friend and is not looking to be her friend. He blames Taylor for some of his issues with Selena and that will never go away."
