Justin Bieber has gotten a bad blood for the action stars! First, the Canadian singer challenged Tom Cruise to a UFC cage fight in 2019 and then went on to pursue Mark Wahlberg in the same fight. The tweet spiked up some drama for the time being but ended with an unsatisfactory result.
Tom Cruise is known as Hollywood’s daredevil for performing near-death stunts. Cruise has claimed the world’s tallest building, held his breath underwater for quite some time, and jumped off the cliff on a motorbike. While the fans are in awe of Cruise’s courage, there is one person who is entirely unimpressed with this act. Hence Justin Bieber called upon the action star for a fight in the Octagon.

When Justin Beiber Challenged Tom Cruise For A Cage Fight
In 2019, when Justin Bieber was on break from his tour, a tweet posted by the singer stirred up drama on social media. He challenged the ‘Mission Impossible‘ star in a UFC Cage Fight telling him that if he did not take him up for this, Cruise would never be able to live it down. Beiber tweeted, “I wanna challenge Tom Cruise to fight in the octagon. Tom if you dont take this fight your scared and you will never live it down. Who is willing to put on the fight?”

Before the tweet, there was no reported bad blood between the ‘Peaches‘ singer and the ‘Top Gun‘ star. There is a possibility that the entire setup was solely for publicity or for Bieber’s upcoming music video. However, he made it seem all real when he posted a video of him kicking off a bottle, saying that that would be Cruise’s head.

Did The Cage Fight Between Justin Bieber And Tom Cruise Happen?
In the infamous 2019 tweet challenging Tom Cruise in a cage fight, Justin Bieber also tagged Dana White, the President of the UFC. After this, Dana White, publicly stated that he had been in contact with Tom Cruise who was willing and ready to fight. But it was Bieber who ended up backing out, which was followed by quite an odd apology.
The singer accepted the entire debacle to be a childish kind of prank but still believed that he would have won against Cruise. Justin stated, “I don’t know. I was just being stupid, to be honest. Not stupid, but then people were like, ‘Yeah, I wanna see this happen.’ And I was like, ‘You know what? That could actually be funny.”
The singer also said, “I try not to let my ego get in the way, but there’s absolutely no way. He’s not the guy you see in movies. That’s a character. [Being in] phenomenal shape doesn’t mean you’re a good fighter … I’m dangerous. My agility is crazy!”
