Justin Bieber and Ryan Good’s friendship hit roadblock due to singer’s church, says ‘source’
Justin Bieber and Ryan Good have not allegedly spoken to one another “in over a year,” which resulted in their friendship reaching a dead end because of the singer’s association with Beverly Hills’ Churchome and its pastor, Judah Smith. Good was Bieber’s ex-road manager and his brand Drew House’s creative director. TMZ reported that a source informed them that the two friends stopped talking after Good exited Churchome.
The insider further claimed that Good had a feeling that Churchome was a “cult” and thus wanted to get out of the Beverly Hills church. They told the news outlet that Bieber brought Smith onto the board of his brand, Drew House, a few years back. According to the source, the singer ignored the brand’s creative director, Good, who allegedly did not see eye to eye with Smith. The TMZ insider also described the singer making the pastor a part of his clothing brand as “weird,” as he was not much of a “businessman.”
As reported by the news outlet, Bieber even invited Smith to the Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas in 2024. The two have been hanging out quite a bit over the years. The sources further told TMZ that although Good has not talked to Bieber in a while, he is still “worried” about the musician.
