London: Justin Bieber has ditched his boy-next-door image by getting bruised, battered and bloody for a boxing themed photo shoot.
In one of the images for Complex magazine, the 18-year-old Baby singer is seen drenched in blood as he’s punched in the face by a burly boxer. Dressed in a ring master style outfit consisting of a white tuxedo shirt and black bow tie, Bieber is depicted as being hit hard in the jaw and subsequently spits out a mouthful of blood, the Daily Mail reported. His shirt ripped and his face heavily bruised and bloodied, a bikini-clad ring girl holds the teenager back as he readies himself to fight back. With injuries that would rival the fiercest of boxers, a crazed-looking Bieber looks ready to rumble. In another shot he slips on a black tuxedo jacket and also goes a few rounds with a speed ball. The amazing pictures of the teenage star was captured by Tony Kelly, a Dublin born photographer who has shot high fashion spreads for the likes of British GQ, Tatler and Vanity Fair. The photographs of Bieber are a far-cry different from his onstage and public persona. He is usually seen sporting an array of urban outfits, which include baseball hats and large gold chains. ANI
