Justin Bieber’s Grammy Performance In Boxers Was A Last-Minute Decision
But while it’s since been pointed out that the garment in question may have been a promotional opportunity for The Biebs’ latest fashion line, it seems the Canadian star may have given less thought to what he wore on stage than you might have thought.
Earlier this week, Grammys executive producer Ben Winston gave an interview on Rolling Stone’s Music Now podcast, spilling some behind-the-scenes tea about this year’s ceremony.
In his wider interview, Winston went on to say that when he and his team first contacted Justin about his plans for his Grammys performance, he didn’t have much to tell them.
“When we had got reached out to him about his creative, he was just like, ‘I’m just going to get on stage and sing’,” he noted.
He added of the eventual performance: “It was what he wanted to do. It was all him. It was a career-defining moment for him. It was so different to what we’ve seen over the years.”
After an extended break from releasing music, Justin unveiled two albums in 2025, Swag and the follow-up Swag II, the former of which earned him four nominations at the recent Grammys, including the coveted Album Of The Year title.
