“Monkeys are awesome.”

Justin Bieber recently sat down with GQ for their March cover story and had some very Bieber things to say. From pet monkeys to his relationship with God, here are some of the interview highlights.

Eric Ray Davidson for GQ

Me and my boys have been doing this thing where we moon each other whenever we take a picture. ... My boys—we do this wherever we are. It's like a last-second thing: They go to take a picture, and I just turn [around]...

I don't want to put anyone in a position where they feel like I'm only theirs, only to be hurt in the end. Right now in my life, I don't want to be held down by anything. I already have a lot that I have to commit to. A lot of responsibilities. I don't want to feel like the girl I love is an added responsibility. I know that in the past I've hurt people and said things that I didn't mean to make them happy in the moment. So now I'm just more so looking at the future, making sure I'm not damaging them.
