Justin Bieber accused of “degrading women”, underpaying ex-choreographer

Singer-songwriter Justin Bieber’s former choreographer Emma Portner is speaking out against him. The choreographer, who worked on Bieber’s ‘Purpose’ World Tour and stars in his 2015 ‘Life Is Worth Living’ music video, recently shared that she made “less than minimum wage” while working for the singer and slammed him for the way he treats women by calling it an “abomination,” reported People.

In a now-expired Instagram Story, tagging Bieber’s account, she wrote, “I regret working under your name. I gave your universe my naive body, creativity, time and effort. Twice. For content, you made millions off of. While I made zilch. Natta. Barely anything. Less than minimum wage for the hours I invested.”

“I couldn’t afford to eat. I was sweeping studio floors to be able to practice my own craft. The way you degrade women is an abomination,” she continued. Portner then went on criticise Bieber for collaborating with “overly problematic people.”
