Justin Bieber is in the middle of performing across the U.S. and Canada as part of the Purpose World Tour, but he found some downtime to relax and post a nude photo along the way.
At some point before he performed in Fresno, California, Saturday night, Bieber went off to an undisclosed location with Shots CEO John Shahidi and members of his band for a little bit of R&R. The trees surrounding the area and a big lake offered the perfect backdrop for plenty of great photos, as well as plenty of time to rest up on Bieber’s part.

At one point, Bieber decided to strip down and head into the lake. He posted the moment to Instagram and gave Shahidi credit for taking the photo. The caption reads, “Dat ass doe.”
It’s not the first time Bieber has posted a nude photo of his backside to Instagram. He did so last July, paving the way for an Internet field day, but he removed it after it offended the daughter of someone close to him. As of press time, the photo has yet to be removed due to Instagram’s community guidelines on nudity (which has removed similar photos taken by female celebrities in the past) or Bieber himself.
But all mini-vacations come to an end and the show must go on.
