Social media was abuzz with sightings of Justin Bieber in Anguilla, where he soaked up the sun on Meads Bay; gave an impromptu performance of his hit “Sorry” accompanied by Bankie Banx at the Dune Preserve; and relaxed with rumored girlfriend Hailey Baldwin.

The couple spent New Year’s Eve on the neighboring island of St Barth.

Sisters Paris Hilton and Nicky Hilton Rothschild were also in St Barth, where they were snapped (and got some selfies) shopping at designer boutiques in Gustavia, and sunbathing on a yacht anchored offshore.

Also on hand in St Barth was music superstar Prince, who reportedly performed a private concert on a megayacht in Gustavia.
