Justin Bieber’s handlers fear the pop star is spiralling out of control.
RadarOnline.com reports that Scooter Braun, the 19-year-old Canadian heartthrob’s manager, is mulling sent Bieber to rehab for a short, sharp visit. The gossip website says Braun is concerned by the Baby singer’s accelerated use of alcohol and marijuana.
A source told Radar: “Justin is hanging out with the wrong people. It’s been one incident after another with him ... Scooter wants him to go to rehab to get his act together.”
Bieber’s past three months have featured one faux pas after another, not least showing up late for his own concerts. In Holland, he suggested Holocaust heroine Anne Frank would have been a Belieber and was widely mocked for it. Last week Kid Rock predicted the troubled singer would end up like one-hit wonder Vanilla Ice.
Meanwhile, X-Factor crator Simon Cowell addressed the Bieber rehab rumours. Cowell said more than anything, Bieber needs a break.
“If I ever thought one of our artists was being overworked or over-promoted, you just have to say to them, ‘You made enough money, just take a year off.’ You have to be sensible about it,” Cowell told Fox News.
Is that drug/alcohol/sex/eating disorder rehab or career rehab?
“Bieber’s past three months have featured one faux pas after another”
Nothing better for slipping popularity numbers than to go into “rehab”. It’s just another career move for these people.
..never to return?
PLEASE say it’s “never to return”...
The entertainment industry would just manufacture another teen heartthrob, just like they do with boy bands. They’re like bad weather, it comes and goes but is always with us.
this kids a spoiled little brat and will end up dead long before old age kicks in,Oh well.
what a putz. He’s starting to look like vanilla ice in his heyday.So this is all about “cred” right? With all the stuff to report on I am surprised how often I see his name.
It’s Hollywood.
Anyone he hangs around with are the wrong people.
HE is one of the wrong people.
Throw in gnawing dissatisfaction with the pay and disgust with management hostility and abuse... VOILA... the guy will GROW UP!!
How on earth is this girly boy a heartthrob? He looks like a dyke and dresses like a douchebag slob.
He’ll return when he comes out of the closet and will be an even bigger hit amongst our homophile society.
...the 19-year-old Canadian heartthrob...
There, fixed that for all of the queers that oggle his feminine demeanor.
This is to be expected when you give a 17 year old $100 million dollars.
I kind of like Vanilla Ice now. And that means I will be deep into my eighties before I have to consider liking Bieber.
That tendency goes way back. Elvis was a rare exception. In general, tween girls are not ready for a "bad boy" or a manly man. They want to chase a boy, but they want the boy to be "safe". Leif Garrett, David Cassidy, Andy Gibb, Michael Jackson, Justin Bieber -- girls were not afraid that these fellows would take unfair advantage of them.
And, yeah, as someone already pointed out, the queers REALLY like these teen idols just the way they are.
ping to your interests...
...and don’t forget Bobby Sherman!
I almost mentioned him!! Didn’t want to date myself too much.
He played himself in a recent Adam Sandler film. He was actually really funny! He had the best lines in the movie.
