Justin Bieber is going to swear off alcohol for good, despite the fact that he was never actually old enough to legally purchase it. This is a bit odd, since Justin is still bound by the same laws that govern the rest of the world and which clearly specify that anyone under 21 years of age can't buy alcohol and is prohibited from drinking it.

The Sun is claiming that the Canadian singer is bent on turning over a new leaf and this effort means that he's about to quit drinking. For weeks now, Justin has been on a campaign to reinvent himself. He was seen reconciling with Selena Gomez and there was talk of settling down and having a baby.

Justin tells friends that he won't drink alcohol, nor eat junk food

Insiders are saying that the new Justin, Bieber 2.0 as it were, is keen to cut out all alcohol consumption from his life. “Justin has been boasting to his friends about his new healthy lifestyle,” says one source.

“He no longer drinks and has stopped eating junk food, too. He's had a difficult few months and is hoping that this will give him a fresh start,” adds the same source, offering an insight into the troubled life of Bieber, who just recently decided to take off his clothes on stage at the Fashion Rocks charity event, thinking that it was a cool thing to do.

The singer is ready to start living healthy, has big plans with Selena

Also, it's worth mentioning that since January, Justin has been on a downward slope as far as his life and career went, culminating with his arrest and DUI charge in Miami. Since then, he's been in several incidents and it's only because of his legal team who has been working overtime that he's managed to stay out of jail.

It's believed that a large part of Justin's reinvention is due to Selena Gomez. Though Selena has had her own bouts with drugs and alcohol which led her in rehab at the beginning of the year, the singer is now keen to set Justin on the right path, and they are willing to give sobriety a shot together.

These two are said to be so in love right now that they are already making plans to move in and Justin is even talking about having a baby with Selena, convinced that she is the love of his life.

Friends still don't believe Bieber is ready to turn over a new leaf

While swearing off alcohol is something that friends of the celebrity couple are seeing with good eyes, the same can't be said about their marriage and children plans. People who know them say that Justin and Selena are poison for each other and that bad things happen when the two of them get together.

So far, the two pop singers have broken up and reconciled several times this year, so now people are watching and waiting to see how long it's going to take them this time before they call it quits.

But there must be something that Selena is doing right this time around, because Justin keeps talking about swearing off alcohol and dating other women.
