Bieber baptized in bathtub after he was caught using N-word

Bad boy Justin Bieber is born again!

The “Boyfriend” crooner cleansed his soul with a bathtub baptism at a Manhattan church last week, after a new video was released of the pop star slinging the N-word five years ago.

Bieber sought atonement at the church after a week of rigorous Bible study, his pastor, Carl Lentz, told TMZ. The actual baptism took place in the church’s bathroom and was performed by one of the pop star’s pals, the Web site said Sunday

The Biebs, who was 14 when he was caught on camera singing, “There’ll be one less lonely n—–,” a racist take on his song “One Less Lonely Girl,” studied Bible passages and attended religious services before the religious ritual, TMZ reported.

Page Six had reported in February that Bieber was scouting New York City churches with a private pool to conduct the cleansing ritual. He eventually settled on Hillsong Church’s bathtub because it was private, TMZ said.

“Justin is serious about his Christian faith, and after recent events, he needed to take a pause,” a source told The Post at the time.

The spiritual dunk came after Bieber’s team was contacted two months ago by a man threatening to go public with videos of the singer’s racist rank if he didn’t get $1 million, TMZ said.

Instead, Bieber released the video, in which he also jokes about joining the KKK, and issued an apology.

“I thought it was OK to repeat hurtful words and jokes but didn’t realize at the time that it wasn’t funny and that in fact my actions were continuing the ignorance,” he said.

The tattooed YouTube star became a fan of Lentz’s megachurch after attending a service there in September.

Bieber’s rep didn’t immediately return calls for comment Sunday.
