Justin Bieber looks a little roughed up in a still from his forthcoming 'As Long As You Love Me' video.

Justin Bieber's no stranger to getting (the fake) crap beat out of him, and it seems like he's at it again in his upcoming video for "As Long As You Love Me." Anthony Mandler, the clip's director, recently tweeted a still from the video shoot, and it featured a blood-covered JB with bruises, a black eye and some still remarkably voluminous hair. But we suppose that last part is a given. Mandler tweeted the photo with the caption: "It's a story of love...#believe."

Not quite sure what kind of love story includes Justin getting his perfect face beat up but, as we've clearly proven (please recall THIS and THIS and THIS), we'll always take JB in any whatever form he comes in. With that in mind, we also have no doubt that Justin will overtake whatever or whomever he's fighting, because Justin Bieber is the king of everything in all the land. It's just a simple law of physics (we think, we may have barely passed physics). Also, props for still looking like a fox even while doused in fake blood. Well played, bro.
