Justin Bieber on past antics: 'I was getting cockier and cockier'

Justin Bieber has admitted that his behaviour went askew a few years ago because he was getting too "cocky".

The singer endured a difficult last couple of years in the public spotlight.

He was arrested for DUI in Miami last year and he also had a number of paparazzi altercations.

Bieber is trying to cut a more mature figure in 2015 and he told the June/July issue of Seventeen that he didn't have anyone to keep him in check.

The 21-year-old said: "I was rebelling a little bit. I was getting cockier and cockier. I didn't have people to check me.

"I [have] looked back and I was disappointed in myself. You have to own up to the mistakes. You have to say, 'I'm sorry if I've let you down'."

The singer added: "I always want to be honest and let people know that those mistakes aren't who I am. Who I am is someone who really cares about people."
