Justin Bieber has sparked fresh concerns over his mental health after posting a Liam Payne tribute video containing the message: "You're allowed to cry and break."
RadarOnline.com can reveal the Canadian singer, 30, documented the video on his Instagram Stories and the footage features memorials set up for the late singer by fans in London.
Payne fell to his death from hotel balcony last Wednesday.
Bieber has looked skinny and gaunt in recent weeks as he took a break from social media following his mentor Sean 'Diddy' Combs arrest for sex trafficking.
The singer's inappropriate relationship with the rapper has since been scrutinised, triggering fears his association with Diddy has left deep mental scars.
His latest video posing regarding Payne, featuring emotional words in a voiceover, will do little to play down his current struggles.
Payne had struggles to overcome drug issues.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "Justin is really worrying his nearest and dearest now.
"He's fixated on people scarred by the music industry like Liam and is saying he is on a mission to protect singers from the business.
"It seems like he's crying out for help himself."
Bieber has reportedly distanced himself from his former mentor following his arrest last month.
Bieber has been looking gaunt and skinny of late.
Diddy took Bieber under his wing while he was still a teenager, taking him to wild parties and into environments unsuitable for a minor.
Videos have since resurfaced showing the pair together, sending shivers down the spines of Beliebers who feel Diddy's influence has majorly impacted the star's wellbeing.
Earlier this month, RadarOnline revealed a chilling video featuring Diddy "patting down" Bieber’s upper body, allegedly checking for a wire.
The unsettling footage has sparked fans' concern the former teen star may have been "a victim of grooming and sexual abuse" due to his association with the rapper.
Last year he was in a better place, reguarly smiling at events.
Another video clip saw Diddy, who is 24 years older than Justin, documenting his "48 hours" staying with the singer when he was just 15.
The mogul said: "He's having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we're doing we can't really disclose. But it's definitely a 15-year-old's dream."
He continued: "I have been given custody of him. He's signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he did his first album."
"I don't have legal guardianship of him (Justin) but for the next 48 hours he's with me and we're gonna go full crazy."
Bieber took a social media silence in wake of Diddy arrest.
Another resurfaced clip saw the rapper grilling a 16-year-old Justin on why he hadn't been speaking to him as much.
Diddy asked the youngster: "What's up man, you good? Selling out arenas and everything?
"Starting to act different, huh? You haven't been calling me and hanging out the way we used to hang out."
The shamed rapper took Bieber under his wing while he was still a teen.
Justin appeared anxious as he responded: "I mean you tried to get in contact with me throughout all my... and what not... but you never got my number.
"I'm going to tell you my number."
The musicians also appeared alongside each other during a guest slot on Jimmy Kimmel's chat show in 2011.
Speaking about his relationship with Bieber, Diddy said: "Mean, to a lot of us, he's like a little brother.
