Justin Bieber Performs in Underwear at the Grammys and Breaks the Internet
When you think of Grammy night surprises, award wins, and show-stopping collaborations typically come to mind. But this year’s Justin Bieber performance in underwear at the Grammys took fans straight into blink-and-you-miss-it territory and then straight into meme history.
This wasn’t planned wardrobe commentary — it was moment-making energy. Reporters and fans alike had no choice but to pause the music for a second… then rewind the clip.

Of course, shows like the Grammys are choreographed down to the last lyric. But casual viewers swore they weren’t ready for that look. Whether Bieber was making a fashion statement, leaning into vulnerability, or just having fun, the reaction was instantaneous
Even host Trevor Noah couldn’t resist poking fun at how comfortable the look was — joking that it was more “big-stage bravery” than “big-stage fashion.”
At a time when red carpet moments get dissected as film premieres and awards speeches get rewound for hidden meaning, this genuinely playful moment made a lot of people laugh — and that’s a rare Grammy night gift.
