This is a photo of Justin Bieber last Thursday in Toronto. He and Selena Gomez flew into town for the long weekend. You can see pictures of them here, but it’s nothing you haven’t seen several times already. I’ll never know what power Swaggy holds over Selena.
Havoc always awaits when the Biebs is involved. A few weeks ago, he was caught driving on a sidewalk and endangering a disabled woman. Last week, he caused a traffic accident by slamming on his brakes in front of a paparazzo. Move that walker, I’m Justin Bieber?
I’ve been comparing Swaggy to Lindsay Lohan, and Lainey’s drawing comparisons too. The similarities between the two are not difficult to see. Both are entitled, former child stars that do whatever they please to a chorus of hangers-on. Both are utter messes. Both make false promises of getting it together.
Swaggy’s latest offense happened on Labor Day weekend. He was arrested on Friday (in his hometown, Stratford, Ontario) for dangerous driving and assault after (allegedly) slamming his ATV into a minivan driven by a paparazzo. TMZ has photos of Bieber on the ATV and deets on the arrest:
Justin Bieber got arrested in Canada after crashing his ATV into a minivan driven by paparazzi … TMZ has learned — and he now faces charges of dangerous driving and assault.
Bieber was taken into custody Friday afternoon in Perth County, Ontario. Police say there was a physical altercation between Justin and a paparazzo in the minivan … after they had the collision.
Justin was photographed riding the ATV with Selena Gomez Friday in Ontario near his father’s home.
Police say Justin was released and will have to appear in court later this month.
He could have a bigger problem on his hands though — Justin is on probation for 2 years after the egging case in L.A. So, it’s possible this arrest could trigger a violation.
Justin’s attorney says Justin and Selena are fully cooperating with the police investigation.
[From TMZ]
Bieber is currently on probation for two years as a faux-punishment for Egg-gate. International arrests can qualify as a violation. Most people would have their probation revoked for such an incident. How many of you think Swaggy will skate on this violation? Yep. You’re probably correct. Bieber will credit his bathtub baptism for his good fortune. The rest of us will blame celebrity justice.

Ugh, I just can’t with this brat. And I really really hate celebrity justice.
He is more than a BRAT! All parents should be aware that he is no idol for their children. In fact he should be blacklisted by the media. Shed no tears if he kills himself by drugs, alcohol, or by insanely driving.
I just hope no one else is a casualty of such idiotic behavior.
Lock him up and throw away the keys PLEASE
Biebs, Chris Brown and Lilo all need to be exiled on some remote island so we don’t have to deal with their reckless antics.
A reality show I might actually watch.
There isn’t anything to reality shows. Most are rehearsed and edited prior to viewing. Best to say that the contestants are real dirt bags.
So, you’re saying these 3 would fit right in?
That would be one hell of a reality show. It could be part of their sentence. in Washington State some of the Indian Tribe Courts actually have a sentence where people are forced to live on an island for a year before being accepted back in the tribe. They have to survive using traditional hunting and shelter methods of their forefathers. So this actually hap[pens. It would be a win win Especially for us. 🙂
Now that is an excellent plan!
Can they take Kanye too?
Yes, please and all the K klan.
It this were a real situation, I bet Eddie would be on the phone working with LeAnn’s management as we speak.
Battle Royal: Celebrity Edition.
I would love to watch that show if it ever did exist. I say we had Charlie sheen into the mix just for gags.
Ha! They wouldn’t last more than a few days. They are all too stupid to survive for long.
LOL… Survivor: Celebrity Remedial Edition. How could they function without their handlers??? (Not all celebrities, of course, mainly the overly entitled ones)
LOL…that would be funny watching them try to survive with nothing but the clothes on their backs and whatever they can scrounge up from their immediately surroundings. Either that, or a Thunderdome-style cage match show.
Naked and Afraid: celebrity edition. I would watch, especially if it were all the brats.
Pull your damn pants up!
The photo of him with his orange shorts hanging down showing his designer diapers says it all. He is a spoiled entitled child who needs someone to spank some sense into his walnut sized brain.
I will wager before the end of the year he will be in rehab and blame his behaviour on drugs. Just like the current mayor of Toronto.
What Selena sees in this bag of cow poop I will never understand( it certainly can’t be dong haze. Beiber has not hit puberty yet)
What does the current mayor of Toronto have to do with Bieber? They’re not from, nor do they live in the same city.
The current mayor has been in rehab and blamed his past behaviour on the drugs and alcohol he was using.
I know that, I live in Toronto. I just didn’t see the correlation, lots of people go to rehab and blame their poor decisions on substance abuse. Is it because they’re both Canadians who are screwing up in the spotlight?
He really should get together with Miley Cyrus. A Match made in hell, two juvenile douches together ( that’s an American word so am not sure if a female can be a douche – douchess maybe?)
Sadest statement of the day: I think Miley is more focused, disciplined, has her s*it together and surrounds herself with much better management than the Biebe’s.
The way he wears his pants, they always look like a loaded diaper to me, I can’t help but think of him as Baby Biebs.
TO EVERYONE IN THE WORLD: ABSOLUTELY NO ONE LOOKS GOOD OR COOL WITH THEIR PANTS BELOW THEIR ASS!!!!!!!!
Whew…felt good to get that off my chest!!!
I think this little brat looks even worse in baseball hats. They don’t sit right, like they’re far too big for his head and they make him like like a real goof.
He should be wearing a beanie hat with the blades on top!!!
how much is the underwear manufacturer paying him to showcase their Pampers for Teens product line 24/7?
He takes the words “spoiled brat” to a new level. I absolutely detest everything about him, he hasn’t got one redeeming quality as far as I can tell.
Why does this subhuman moron still have a driver’s license?
Exactly ^^^
Honestly, one’s left with the impression that bloody great handfuls of cash are circulating around cop stations, while this twerp offends on a weekly basis.
Lucky he has his religion behind him, washing away every misdeed, so he never has to feel accountable.
Dear Canada:
Take him back. Please take him back.
We will gladly take him back as soon as we can figure out which island in the Arctic to send him to. There are some issues we are having with the polar bears and wolves. They do not want him and have filed a complaint with the United Nations and PETA
Seriously funny. But really, take him back.
Give him to the grizzlies.
Ba ha ha ha ha NewWester! You win the internet today. I was going to say that if they make us take him back then we’re taking Gosling as well… we need something to soften the blow. (:
Nope. You guys made him famous. Blame Pharrell.
Usher.
Usher. My mistake.
Prediction: This brat will seriously injure or kill himself or someone else due to his immaturity and poor judgement. Canada, please keep him.
How his pants doesn’t fall off??
Diapers have elastic waistbands to keep them in place while baby plays.
I wonder if the Canadian justice system is just as soft on celebs as the U.S. seems to be.
Hope not.
No, it’s just that our system is soft on EVERYBODY! ha!
Please judge, make an example of him!
On Canadian news yesterday most of the legal consultants that they had on all seem to think Justin’s probation will be revoked which could cause issues with his visa in the US and he might not be able to enter as often as he likes anymore.
Sure hope so but knowing how celeb justice works (at least in the US) he’ll probably just be given another slap on the wrist and told to behave himself–ala Lohan! Over and over again until something really tragic happens!
The way celeb justice works is the same as rich people justice; hire a very pricey lawyer with good connections and you get a slap on the wrist. The key is the other party will having a lawyer with less connections or experience.
Now I cannot wait to see him vs Gloria Aldrege (probably spelled her name wrong) in the Dave and Busters case. I believe that will trigger some probation violation more than the international arrest sadly.
Gloria Allred.
It just occurred to me that he really hasn’t worked in long, long time. Right? No new music, tour, publicity…
I went from Idris jogging to this. Now I have the bends.
LOL! Post of the day!
Haha!
In addition to staying out of trouble with the law, Bieber is required to successfully complete Anger Management classes and submit to random drug testing as a condition of his probation.
He clearly cannot control his temper or reckless behavior and appears as though he’s high as a kite.
If Bieber insists on showing such a blatant disregard for the law he should have his probation violated and suffer whatever consequences that would come along with that.
His tattoos look really dumb! i think people should wait till they are at least 25 before getting any. laser removal is painful guys!
I think the little a**hole has been dosing up on ‘roids, thereby causing the rage incidents. His physique has changed remarkably in a short period of time. Anyone who regularly slurps a dangerous concoction of sizzurp the way he does likely doesn’t care about side-effects of steroids – he just wants to be buff and tough.
I am sure some day soon he WILL be in jail. Babies In The Clink would be a great name for his single when he gets out-totes adds to his street swag. He can wear his orange prison diaper with pride.
He’s a turd.
Didn’t he ‘baptise’ himself in a bathtub or something a while ago? Can someone baptise him in a piranha infested river this time around, please?
Stop calling him a brat, he’s an adult.
Doesn’t look it and sure doesn’t act like it but he is an adult, who is charged with assault.
I wish I didn’t have to see his stupid mug, but at least I’ve never had to hear him sing. Small blessings.
So, paparazzi follow him onto his father’s property, a country road, in his home town, where he’s riding an ATV with his girlfriend. Not drinking, not doing drugs, not stealing, but hanging out with his girlfriend doing the most innocuous thing.
These men in a minivan get up nice and close and won’t leave them alone (we saw the pictures right?). If you have any awareness of the media you know how paparazzi operate: they shout things and try to aggravate the celebrity to get a response.
You don’t think that would be kind of scary? You don’t think that if some men followed you down a country road and stalked you and your loved one you might react strongly?
These responses that Bieber deserves time are ridiculous and tiresome. What is wrong with people? Do you really think the paparazzi should have free reign to do whatever they want? How would you like it? what would you do after the thousandth time?
Ugh.
I guess he could have taken his trusty phone, you know, the one he uses to post pics of himself reading The Wall Street Journal and called the police to report someone trespassing on private property if that was the case.
Lots of assumptions there Rachel. I’d be more likely to go the other way and postulate he was drinking, on something, etc.
I live near Stratford; it’s a beautiful little town. I wish it was still known for the Startford Festival, and not for this twerp.
Beiber deserves time because he isn’t learning a darn thing from the chances he is given- same as Difficult Brown. It may be that THIS time he was being harassed, but someone I doubt even that.
I’m certainly curious as to who you mean by Difficult Brown. The most incredulous part of me thinks you might mean that dead 18 year old in Ferguson. But no one would sink that low would they? Surely someone else.
Dlisted
google it and search for Difficult Brown. It’s too long for me to type.
But thanks for the benefit of the doubt, that was very respectful of you 🙂
I don’t know where you live, but I’m actually from Canada and I’ll tell you that the scene you just described is unrealistic. This isn’t Britney Spears driving through L.A. with 50 cars of professional paparazzi chasing her. People are calling the person a paparazzo but as far as I’m aware it was just some guy in his mini van following a celebrity around to get a picture. If the rest of us normal folk had a random guy following us in a mini van taking our picture, we would call the cops and go somewhere else. They were driving an ATV for god sake, a mini van is NOT capable of following them through backroad ATV tracks in Canada – take it from me. A normal person would remove himself from the situation, Justin Bieber or someone else with anger issues would do what he did — ram his ATV into another vehicle in a fit of rage. There’s no excuse for it. Stop making excuses about the paparazzi, they’re aware of that when they sign up to be famous.
I live in Ontario. I work in the media. I’m not talking out of my butt here, unlike a few people.
Also, it’s not exactly the back woods here. We have real, internationally known paparazzi, or “celebrity photographers” if you will.
These are the guys: Todd Gillis (used to shoot the SUNshine girlie spread for our local right wing tabloid) of LDP Images (involved in a previous legal scuffle) and Sean O’Neill of INF GOFF, a major supplier of paparazzi photos. Really, really nice regular guys in a minivan, I’m sure.
I’m sure this seems obsessive, but I’m at work, so it’s ok. 🙂 I just get tired of seeing these stories get twisted every day. Every day a tweaked headline, a quote taken out of context, a cherry picked story; whatever will get us to hate or love whichever celebrity is getting clicks that week. It’s the industry I work in and it’s gross. I’m the first to admit it. I will say we wouldn’t have run this story without researching it (a la Lainey, “I don’t know the details yet but Bieber is just like Lilo”). I generally like Celebitchy best as they’re usually fair and open. But it’s open season on Bieber for everyone, always.
Has anyone seen the “Britney’s New Look” episode of South Park? You really should.
( The long-established LDP Images, a company run by Louie De Filipis (a number of guys – like former Toronto Sun snapper Todd Gillis – take pictures under the “LDP” name); 2. Splash News, a Los Angeles-based company that uses freelancers like Tim Vickery in Toronto; and 3. INF GOFF, a New York-based company that has two snappers here – John White and Sean O’Neill. All of these photographers who chase down celebrities on the streets have “legit” jobs that allow them access to showbiz events, and publicists are generally none the wiser. LDP’s snappers have deals with Weekly Scoop and the Toronto Star; White has a weekly spread in the Toronto Sun; and O’Neil shoots candid videos for CTV’s eTalk Daily.)
oh yeah, link to story naming the two paps: http://globalnews.ca/news/1538896/bieber-charged-following-atv-crash-near-stratford-ont/
Eloquently put, Rachel.
Paps are low life. I agree with Rachel.
Paparazzi can be vile and invasive. However, you can’t ASSAULT someone even if they are being vile and invasive. Unless your life is endangered, there is no excuse for assaulting someone.
If the paps were on private property, film them, get their license plate number, report them to the police for trespassing or driving dangerously. You suggest that Bieber was concerned for the safety of himself and his loved one. If he was worried about safety, would he ram his ATV into the van? Would he force a violent confrontation with the very people he was supposedly in fear of?
A person doesn’t have to think that “the paparazzi should have free reign to do whatever they want”, in order to see that Bieber made bad decisions and committed some crimes here. The paparazzi aren’t being charged with a crime, Bieber is.
There’s no evidence the paps did anything and to suggest Justin is a victim being harassed when the report is the exact opposite shows only your bias and nothing else. You allegedly work in the industry and you’re going to pretend photographers are not a legitimate cog in the machine?
Of course they’re cogs. How silly to suggest they’re not. And I know exactly how these reports work. It shows whatever angle they want it to show without outright lying about a subject.
(edit: and in the case of some media organizations, “with” outright lying)
Lastly, working in media is hardly some big feat. Anyone can do it out of J-school. I wouldn’t bother to lie about that. I’d rather say I’m a doctor.
Send Bieber & Lilo to one of those abandoned desert towns where they used to do weapons testing. Give them all the booze and drugs they want. Let them destroy property, drive drunk, and claim their innocence at the top of their lungs. Just don’t ever let them out. Just the two of them. Forever.
He’s going to kill someone someday. And when that happens, he will receive a slap on the wrist as all celebs do and a family will be left devastated by his infantile irresponsible actions.
PUNK. He’s the most vacant-looking person I’ve ever seen.
Ugh. The doucheyness ramps-up with every photo so that I cannot even look at photos of him any more without having a very visceral reaction where I wince and recoil from the computer and maybe even throw up a little in my mouth.
