Justin Bieber wasn't about to let a little rain (or a lot of online chatter) stop him from getting out and about in Los Angeles. The 30-year-old "Peaches" singer hit up a go-kart track in Santa Clarita on Thursday, February 13, rocking a Valentine's Day-ready look. But the real conversation? Where's Hailey Bieber?
With his wife nowhere in sight, Justin stepped out in a pink beanie, zip-up hoodie, and bright red sweatpants so oversized he had to hold them up while walking. Add in some white fleece slip-on and a bubblegum pink phone case, and you've got Bieber's latest streetwear moment—soaked in drizzle but fully committed to the theme.

This solo outing came just hours after fans noticed—and quickly side-eyed—a comment he left on Keke Palmer's Instagram. The actress posted a fire selfie in a white crop top, low-rise beige pants, and a silk Burberry scarf, and Justin dropped in with: "She said I'm poppin out [heart-eyes emoji]."
Fans didn't hold back in the replies: "He's always showing so much love to other girls in the comments," one person noted. "Justin Bieber already trynna move on from Hailey," another added.
A Long History with Keke Palmer
For what it's worth, Justin and Keke go way back. She's supported him for years, and he's done the same.
So, was Justin's comment just friendly appreciation or something more? Either way, between his solo rainy day outing and Hailey's recent girls' trip, the internet is keeping a close eye on what's next for the Biebers.
Hailey Bieber opened up about divorce rumors
Hailey and Justin Bieber have made headlines recently, and the speculations about their marriage continued after the singer appeared to have unfollowed his wife on social media. However, the pair showed their love in New York City during an outing.

"People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced.’ It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy," She told W Magazine, adding that it still "hurts."
“I used to try to act like it hurts less and less," she explained. "I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less.”
The couple got engaged in 2018 and got married in 2019. They welcomed their first child in 2024. Hailey also explained that she "probably could have [hidden] it until the end" but "didn’t enjoy the stress of not being able to enjoy my pregnancy outwardly."

"I felt like I was hiding this big secret, and it didn’t feel good. I wanted the freedom to go out and live my life," she declared.
