Justin Bieber's Rant - Miguel - 03-15-2013
I get the sense his primary audience is growing up and he's having a difficult time adjusting to the fact he may have peaked.
Quote:Justin Bieber hasn’t had the best March. He’s been booed for being late onstage, he’s landed in the hospital, almost got into a fight with a paparazzo and, on top of everything else, his hamster died.
That’s a lot for any 19-year-old, multi-platinum pop star, and now the singer is lashing out at the negative press that has surrounded him for the last few weeks.
In an open letter to his fans that he posted as one long photo caption on the photo-sharing app Instagram, Bieber lashed out at what he calls “countless lies.”
“Everyone in my team has been telling me, “keep the press happy” but I’m tired of all the countless lies in the press right now. Saying I’m going to rehab and how my family is disappointed in me. My family is beyond proud, and nothing’s been said by them, my grandparents wouldnt know how to reach to press even of they did want to so that was a lie and rehab cmon. 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’m 19 and it must be scary to some people to think that this is just the beginning. I know my talent level and i know i got my head on straight. i know who i am and i know who i’m not My messege is to to believe. My albums could be about anything but my messages have been to never say never and believe, not to believe in me but to believe in yourself .. I honestly don’t care if you don’t believe in me because I believe in me, my friends believe, my family believe, my fans believe, and look where that’s gotten me so far.. I’m writing this with a smile on my face and love in my heart. Letting u know first hand how I feel rather than have these story linger. 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… All this isn’t easy. I get angry sometimes. I’m human. I’m gonna make mistakes. In gonna grow and get better from them. But all the love from you guys overcomes the negativity. I love u. Thanks”

In the original version he dissed Lindsay Lohan -- "And to those comparing me to Lindsay Lohan look at her 2012 tax statements" -- but removed that part 10 minutes later and apologized.

Selena Gomez was on David Letterman.
Sounds like she's moved on:

Quote:Justin Bieber Booed at Billboard Music Awards, Says He “Should Be Taken Seriously”
Apparently tens of millions of Beliebers are not enough to make pop star Justin Bieber feel like he's a serious artist. At the 2013 Billboard Music Awards Sunday night, Bieber took the stage to accept his fan-voted Milestone Award award and was met with boos from the audience.
After a long pause, Bieber felt the need to defend himself, saying, "I'm 19 years old. I think I'm doing a pretty good job."
He continued, "Basically from my heart I really just want to say it really should be about the music. It should be about the craft that I'm making. This is not a gimmick, and I'm an artist, and I should be taken seriously."
Even host Tracy Morgan came to Bieber's defense, saying after the speech, "Don't be booin' nobody, this ain't 'Showtime at the Apollo.'"
Bieber was also facing some close monitoring on awards night, as he and on/off girlfriend Selena Gomez were rumored to be sitting together at the ceremony. After being asked about the rumor via Twitter, host Tracy Morgan gave his own answer by tweeting a photo of himself showing Gomez and Bieber's seat cards next to each other.
But the superstars ended up sitting separately: Bieber with his entourage, and Selena in the neighboring section with her BFF, Taylor Swift. During Bieber's acceptance speech for his Top Male Artist win, Selena's entire row opted to not give him a standing ovation, while most of the people behind them did.
Cameras cut to Selena during Bieber's speech, and while she was smiling pleasantly, Swift might've outed her by giving Bieber her own smirking glare and and Gomez some knowing glances.

Sometimes it's best to accept who you are and appreciate what you've been given. This need to find artistic acceptance is an over reach, when you lip sync as much as he does, who's he fooling?
SMH
There will always be those bubblegum stars who, at their height, start believing in their own hype as a musician.
In the 70's, Leif Garrett is one, and I hope Justin prepared for the 'down hill slope' better than Leif did

The video speaks for itself
RE: Justin Bieber's Rant - Tom22 - 06-28-2013
He's 19 and thinks he knows a lot more about everything than he does.... pretty typical of any 19 year old... especially if you catch them at the wrong time or after a beer or two.
RE: Justin Bieber's Rant - My Alter Ego - 06-28-2013
Hmmm, perhaps, so Tom, but that's not the point of the video. These people, being interviewed, were clueless regarding the remarks that were being made.
The total inability of these folks to process anything, and recognize that, if Bieber was actually engaging in the outrageous actions that the "interviewer" said he was, that, it doesn't matter, because he's "Justin Bieber" Good grief!!!
It's bad enough that the teenage girls were so out of it, they could question nothing, including lies that referred to unethical or unconscionable behavior, but that the dad of one (or more) teenage girls was incapable of doing so was fairly appalling. (I also find it curious that: if these kids were truly such "Beliebers" why didn't they recognize that that statements might not be true -- but that's a different discussion.)
But, while a good many years ago, I was a teenage girl, I grew in a different time and under different circumstances, so ....
While the video is sort of funny, it's only "sort of funny.."
But, Tusk, actually I do appreciate you sharing it.
RE: Justin Bieber's Rant - mercfan3 - 07-03-2013
To be fair, I'm sure he only takes the dumbest answers. This isn't the majority. This is the dumb.
He did the same thing with his "how do you feel about the Lakers playing in the Finals" video.
If you ask questions like that too enough people, you're bound to get dumb answers at some point.

TMZ: Justin Bieber Pissing On His Own Reputation
Video of Justin in saggy pants peeing into a mop bucket in the kitchen of a restaurant. On his way out, with his "Wild Kidz," he sprays a picture of Bill Clinton with glass cleaner and says, "Fuck Bill Clinton!" I believe this incident is said to have happened in January, 2012 but the video only came to light this week.

Quote:After getting caught on video urinating in a mop bucket and saying "F--k Bill Clinton" while in the act, the 19-year-old actually spoke to the former U.S. president today and apologized for his actions, a source close to the situation confirms to E! News.
The insider tells us that the erstwhile commander in chief took Bieber's slam in jest, saying something along the lines of, "If that is the worst thing you have ever done, all is well."
And that had to have felt good to hear, considering the rough time Bieber has been having staying out of headline-making situations lately.
"@billclinton thanks for taking the time to talk Mr. President. Your words meant alot. #greatguy," he tweeted earlier today after their talk.

^ On Twitter, most of his fans didn't know he had actually spoken to BC. They thought he was being sarcastic and they tweeted Justin to let him know they thought he was hilarious. Many of these tweets began, "OMG..." A few Beliebers did see fit to inform Justin that Bill Clinton wasn't the president.

I think Justin is correct in referring to Clinton as "Mr President". I wasn't born in this country but isn't it true that once you have been elected president, the title "Mr President" is still retained even after your term(s)?
