Justin Bieber posted a message on Instagram Thursday in which he boasted about his talent, putting down haters and critics alike, and addressed comparisons to actress Lindsay Lohan, saying the two have nothing in common.

The original message with the rant against Lohan was posted early on Thursday and has since been re-posted with the reference to the actress deleted. TMZ captured a screen shot of the original message posted, where Bieber began by saying, "It must be scary to some people to think that this is just the beginning [for me]. I know my talent level ..."

He then said, "...to those comparing me to Lindsay Lohan look at her 2012 tax statements ;)"

The message that was not removed also described Bieber's annoyance toward the way he is portrayed in the press. He said everyone in his team tells him to "keep the press happy" but that he is "tired of all the countless lies in the press right now," including those of him reportedly going to rehab and of his family being disappointed in him.

"My family is beyond proud...and rehab cmon," Bieber said. "If Anyone believes i need rehab thats their own stupidity lol I'm 19 with 5 number one albums, 19 and I've seen the whole world. 19 and I've accomplished more than I could've ever dreamed of."

"I honestly don't care if you don't believe in me because I believe in me," he added. "I'm writing this with a smile on my face and love in my heart. I'm a good person with a big heart. And don't think I deserve all this negative press I've worked my ass off to get where I am and my hard work doesn't stop here."

Bieber's Instagram message was accompanied by a photo of him with his back to the camera as he is greeted by adoring fans. The message had already received 139,000 "likes" at time of publication.
