Justin Bieber: “Boyfriend”, Boxing, and Blood

Teen heartthrob Justin Bieber is changing up his image a bit, but it comes at a price.

The 18-year old has certainly done some growing up in the past year or so, and a new photo shoot for Complex Magazine shows off a side of him that his young fans have never seen: the reckless, butt-kicking side.

The shoot was done for the magazine’s 10th anniversary cover, and it looks to be an interesting one. The theme involves Bieber holding his own against two huge boxers while wearing a tux, at first just taking punches–and getting bloody–and then giving them. A sexy ring-girl in a gold bikini alternately gives him water and cheers him on, giving him a second wind to get up and throw some fists.

Bieber, who was discovered in 2008 at the ripe old age of fourteen, has seen mega success since his first full-length studio album was released in 2010.
