In the wake of the Bora Bora Balls incident, a.k.a. #peengate, people have waited patiently for two things: Justin Bieber's statement on nude vacationing and his response to his dad's admittedly strange #prouddad tweet. Since his dad ultimately deleted that tweet, Bieber decided to tackle that first thing in a new interview with Access Hollywood:

"That was shrinkage for me."

He was in the pool! He was in the pool!

Bieber also took a slightly more serious note when talking about the obvious invasion of privacy that spawned #peengate, asserting that he should be allowed to feel comfortable in his own space:

"My first thing was like…how can they do this? Like, I feel super violated. I feel like I can't step outside and feel like I can go outside naked. You should feel comfortable in your own space...especially that far away."

The current Complex cover star's new album Purpose is due on Nov. 13 and features collaborations with Big Sean, Mike Dean, Travis Scott, Ariana Grande, and many more.
