Sources now tell PEOPLE that Justin simply “felt the need to defend” his “friend and mentor” considering all that Scooter has done for him as a manager and a friend over the years. “[Scooter] has been very understanding and encouraging of Justin taking a break from making a new album and instead focusing on his mental health,” the source detailed. “Justin thinks Scooter has a big heart [and] thought Taylor’s bashing of Scooter was unfair.”
