But it turns out he has a soft spot for, well, all sports. And he’s not particularly tied to any team loyalties — save for those of the Canadian persuasion, of course, given his northern roots. (Specifically, he stans for the Toronto Maple Leafs, as is [well-documented](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2017/04/23/justin-bieber-hockeys-drake-is-at-capitals-maple-leafs-game-6/?utm%5Fterm=.86ec655370df).) In a series of tweets fired off on Monday night, the Biebs offered some deeply honest thoughts about his fluid sports fandom and his prevailing interest in the attendant attire. > [](https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/871872331135807489) > [](https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/871872525910855680) > [](https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/871874872506544128) So there we have it: fashion first. We shouldn’t be surprised, given the trendsetter’s interest in [bold aesthetics](http://time.com/4608609/justin-bieber-fur-reactions/). And enjoying “high level sports” is something pretty much everyone can be on board with. > [](https://twitter.com/lindseyweber/status/872064385916784641) > [](https://twitter.com/PLinUSA/status/871944357053698048) > [](https://twitter.com/ColinCowherd/status/871890842650148864) > [](https://twitter.com/patmuldowney/status/871886332817289216) A few hours later, Bieber also offered up the news that he’s [dropping new music](https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/872072056225091584) with DJ [David Guetta](http://time.com/4665951/grammys-2017-unexpected-performances/item/david-guetta-chris-brown-lil-wayne-foo-fighters-deadmau5-2012/) on Friday, June 9\.
