Why Justin Beiber, Hailey Baldwin Were Seen In Bellevue

BELLEVUE, WA - Singer Justin Beiber and his fiance, Hailey Baldwin (daughter of Baldwin brother Stephen), were spotted at the Lincoln Square Mall in downtown Bellevue Wednesday. But why of all places were they hanging out at Lincoln Square - don't celebrities usually shop in New York City or Los Angeles?

The answer to that question might be divine.

The photo was taken by Woodinville resident Steven Pappe. His wife, Naty, shared the photo on a private Woodinville neighborhood Facebook page. Many people commented that The Bieb was probably in town due to his affiliation with the Kirkland-based megachurch Churchome (formerly City Church).

According to Spin magazine:

The current, devout incarnation of Justin Bieber is known for attending worship services at international megachurch Hillsong, and for his close relationship with Carl Lentz, pastor of Hillsong’s New York City branch. But as a man with an elaborate schedule and apparently vast spiritual needs, Bieber also attends a second megachurch, Seattle-based Churchome.

And this isn't the first time J-Beebs has been spotted in Bellevue. In 2014, he was seen with Russell Wilson at Lucky Strike Lanes, according to Downtown Bellevue. Bowling with them that day was Judah Smith, pastor at Churchome.
