UnBeliebable!

Published November 24, 2013

They say always expect the unexpected in the fickle world of showbiz. Teenage pop star Justin Bieber is these days visiting South America for his Believe tour.

On Nov 9 he was asked to leave his plush hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and go wherever he wanted to. Why? Justin B’s fans (called Beliebs) kept damaging the hotel property for a week while waiting to see a glimpse of their hero outside the five-star facility. When the hotel management had enough of the ‘rowdiness’ they told Justin B that he had overstayed his welcome. Not just that, no one in the city seemed to have a soft spot for the star which was why his promoters were seen fretting about to find him and his staff a place to stay in.

By the way, a couple of days prior to that, Justin B was seen graffiti-painting on a wall in Brazil which is a crime in that country. The Brazilian police even thought of filing a case against him.

Well, if he carries on like this in life, he might turn into Justin Always on the Bleeper.
