Justin Bieber Teases “What Do You Mean” With Ryan Seacrest

Bieber, 21, stopped by Seacrest’s radio show to announce the impending release of “What Do You Mean,” which will be his first single release in over a year. Bieber didn’t say much about the track, only teasing that it would be “fun” and “summery.” Bieber said his new music will have a similar vibe to the single he released with Skrillex and Diplo, “Where Are Ü Now.”

Bieber told Seacrest that the song was his response to girls who don’t say what they mean, explaining, “Well, girls are often just flip-floppy. They say something and they mean something else.”

Bieber also announced the released date for his newest single: Aug. 28, and had Seacrest begin a celebrity countdown for the single on social media.

The countdown continued on Thursday with a photo from Orange Is The New Black actress Ruby Rose.

Bieber also teased the album art for the track and said that he has been in the studio working on a new album.
