Body language expert says Justin Bieber ready to move on and 'get back to business' after Diddy drama

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Justin Bieber is prepared to return to work and "get back to business" following the controversy surrounding his former mentor Sean "Diddy" Combs' arrest, claimed a body language expert.

According to body language expert Judi James, the 'Baby' hitmaker appeared to "move on" and be prepared to resume his career after being spotted out for a drive with music video director Cole Bennett on Friday, October 25.

Justin Bieber's body language shows he's 'keen to move on' from Diddy controversy

As a teenager, Bieber was known to have spent a considerable amount of time with Diddy. In light of Diddy's arrest, Bieber might now face the consequences of the videos showing him and the notorious rapper together.

Although Bieber hasn't made any public comments, several insiders claimed that he was struggling with the allegations against Diddy. According to James, the pop singer now appears to be ready to "move on."

The 30-year-old musician was seen riding in the passenger seat of Cole Bennett's Tesla Cybertruck as the two were spotted driving in West Hollywood, California. During the outing, Bieber was spotted with a black beanie, a gray jacket, and sunglasses covering his face.

James told The Mirror that Bieber appeared to be attempting to move on at this point. "There are some subtle but compelling clues here that Justin might be keen to move on and get back to business again," James said.

James continued, "First, there’s his styling. The tiny shades and the brimless beanie hat suggest less of a desire to hide than his bigger-brimmed hats he’s been wearing to hide his face recently."

"Then there's his body language. His chin is raised in a gesture of confidence and perhaps comfort in a raised visibility. And his lips appear slightly pursed, which can signal inner resolve and determination," she added.

Bieber has not yet officially addressed Diddy's arrest. However, he has been opening out to people close to him, a source told In Touch Weekly.

"The last thing Justin wants to do is relive or even discuss his complicated friendship with Diddy. But he’s finally breaking his silence to his friends about his nightmare experience and the private hell it’s caused him," the source said at the time.

According to the insider, Bieber finds it "hard" to deal with his connection with Diddy "being dredged up." However, he is aware that he can rely on Hailey, his "massively supportive" wife.

Justin Bieber previously appeared 'vulnerable' and apparently had a 'desire to hide'

Bieber might be prepared to go out with confidence. But when he was out with his wife Hailey Bieber a few days before, body language expert James spotted that he appeared "vulnerable" and appeared as if he had a "desire to hide."

James told The Mirror US that Bieber's body language, when he walked behind Hailey and covered his face, "exudes an air of vulnerability and a subliminal desire to hide here."

"This is not a huge change for the star as he has tended to walk behind his wife with his head lowered in the past, looking much less sociable and confident than her, but here that contrast between traits seems enormous," James added.

The 'Sorry' singer wore an open tan checkered shirt and went bare as he followed his wife. He also covered his face with a hat.

The couple went out in Beverly Hills to celebrate the release of Barrier Butter, the newest product from Hailey's skincare line Rhode Skin. Hailey's gray suit, white shirt, and red tie gave her a really chic appearance.

James said: "Hailey wears an exaggeration of the 80s boardroom power-dressing suit with wide sharp shoulders and a tie giving off vibes of status and control. Her severe hairstyle gleams and her chin is raised and her head cocked in an expression of confidence and strength."

"Justin walks behind with his hat brim pulled down to hide his face. In another photo that brim looks even more curled down as though he might have pulled at it," James remarked in comparison.

She further noted that Bieber's "mouth expression looks somber and his hands are stuffed into his pockets in what is usually seen as a desire to hide. When his hands are out of his pockets his shoulders look slumped and hunched forward in another self-protective gesture."

Diddy was arrested in September in New York on accusations of prostitution, transportation, trafficking, and racketeering conspiracy. He entered a not guilty plea in court and denied all of the charges.
