@drflyntcoal: There's more to life then girlfriends indeed, look I don't encourage his behaviour or what he does. But I get a little tired of all the hate that's thrown at him, in recent times and with everyone I've spoken to, I've never heard anyone compliment him or commend him for what he's achieved. Maybe there's a good reason behind that, I don't know. I haven't been following him around or keeping up to date with him as I have better things to do in my life. But we also need to remember the paparazzi always makes celebrities look bad, and only cover the bad stories and not the good ones just to get attention.
That's all fine and well, but stop with the whole "jealousy" thing. For everyone who hates on Justin Bieber, I'm sure that every single one of those people can name an equally rich/famous/successful celebrity who they actually respect.
Yes, I realize that this is largely the media's fault for following celebrities around and making a story about every little bit of dirt that they find. But let's be honest here and realize that a LOT of the "news" regarding Justin Bieber involves him acting like a self-entitled asshole. That may be a somewhat unfair portrayal that was created by tabloid mags to sell copies, but that IS a big part of the "hate" that I'm seeing for the guy. Not that he's rich or famous or can get more tail than he can ever need, but that he's constantly getting in the "news" for acting like a total dick.
Now, to be fair, SOME people absolutely hate on the guy for being successful. As in, "it's a travesty that he's rich and successful, his music isn't even good!" And yes, **** those guys. THAT'S jealousy. But a lot of the "hate" that the guy gets has nothing to do with that, and is almost entirely based on the guy acting like an asshole.
