I'm not a Bieber fan..

If it wasn't for Twitter, I wouldn't even know who the guy was.

But, FFS, there's such a thing as taking things too fucking far.
The guy doesn't deserve all this.

Some people can be total dicks, sometimes.

 		"It is highly unlikely Bieber would be given permission to enter North Korea"

I still think it's rather humorous.

 		I voted for North Korea.

Of course he's not going, but my vote was a way of saying, "Bieber, you do the music industry no good. You're not an artist. Go away."

Felt good.

 		Having seen part of one of his music videos (I couldn't watch the entire thing, it was awful and clearly an ego-trip for him), I think he probably does deserve it.

 		Personally, I thought it is pretty funny that a) 4chan have managed to influence the vote so mucha nd b) 4chan have managed to get into the national news (again).

4chan is a very strange place though... But some of the stuff that comes out of there is very funny.

 		Just as a pointer, it's not so much the fact that this one silly thing happened, most that he's been the target of about 4 or 5 different things, all within the space of a couple of weeks.

It's getting less like "Funny thing to do to a celeb" and more "Pick on the twat that's more famous than us"

 		I get the impression it's less that he's more famous than them and more that he's more famous than them for something he's not very good at.

 		He's just some dumb kid who's flavor of the quarter, and everyone who could decided to elevate him to such a position where he's being stuffed down our throats at every chance. I saw a movie review where someone dropped his name lavishly for some reason, and Roger Ebert actually fired this back:

"I enjoy how you think if everyone shamelessly drops some stupid kids name enough, people will automatically care. It's not working."

True dat.

 		I hope (and think) that ol' Walt has been turning in his grave alot lately.
First there was Hannah Montana, then the Jonas Brothers, then this...

 		I'm fairly sure Justin Bieber isn't a Disney branch...

 		You would actually be right about that!
But I'm pretty sure he's performed in Disney land a couple of times.
I'm not an expert on tween pop (thank God!), but then again noone can deny the fact that Justin Bieber wouldn't have any problem promoting his album(s) on Disney Channel if he tried...

I have no issue with people going after TV shows, but in this case going after Bieber this much is a bit far.
