Justin Bieber celebrated his 19th birthday Friday, and since then things have basically been Bad News Bieber. Here are the headlines.
In case you missed it -- he whined that his bday was the “worst” because he was at a “weak-ass club.”
And ended the night in a confusingly shirtless way.
Which even had other celebs commenting -- mostly advising that Bieber, you know, put a shirt on.
Then Monday night he was booed by fans after showing up way late to a London concert.
He apologized, blaming technical issues -- but even so...fans actually booing Bieber?
Is this a sign the tween tide is turning? The Biebs has been much beloved, but after a few years in the spotlight and a lot of money, is he still our Bieber baby?
Remember, he now knows how to smoke weed.
Still -- less than a month ago he’d addressed some of his snafoos, like the weed-smoking situation, on SNL and was praised for his performance.
What’s happened since then? Well, his breakup with fellow teen idol Selena Gomez seems to really be real now...
She was spotted out the night of the Grammys -- from which he was snubbed -- in February.
So, maybe he’s reeling from that. But Bieber’s biggest mistake is this latest incident -- angering his fans. They’re the supporters, and they’ll forgive and forget most indiscretions if stars are loyal.
For example, before the late-to-the-concert incident, they attacked actress Olivia Wilde after she attacked Justin over his birthday-without-a-shirt.
TMZ warns the Biebs fame doesn’t last forever, and the CBC analyzes its local boy’s future with a former teen idol -- Paul Anka.
PAUL ANKA: “As long as he behaves himself, and he grows and turns into something else. Cause he’s gonna lose the voice and all the cuteness and everything.”
But Crushable is more, well, crushing...saying 2013 is Bieber’s year to fall.
“You get caught smoking weed, you’re single, your fashion sense is beyond confusing, and you don’t even have a new album out ... if you don’t step it up, this might be the year.”
And FemaleFirst predicts Bieber won’t make it in the industry too much further after his 19th birthday, saying his fan base is mostly young females, and they’ll grow out of him. Plus...
“...Bieber’s increasingly looking like a rather unsavoury character...Behaviour on and off stage has stunk of someone with a rather overblown opinion of themselves...he’s going to burn out rather quickly.”
So, Biebs -- never say never, or it might not be your world anymore. Insert additional Bieber references here...only if he’s still famous.
