Justin Bieber's Rep Makes Retraction And Says Laptop Was Stolen



Nicki Minaj and Justin Bieber

Last night the Judiciary Report was highly critical of Justin Bieber's hoax, regarding his laptop with "footage" on it being stolen and what it led to online, all in the name of a publicity stunt for his new song "Beauty And A Beat." The Judiciary Report accused Bieber of "crying wolf." 

Well, this morning, Bieber's rep did a retraction, stating he didn't cry wolf and his laptop was really stolen. Two days ago, the Judiciary Report also asked if a police report had been filed. Today Bieber's rep is stating one was filed. This whole thing is not making sense.

STORY SOURCE

..."Be very clear, the laptop was indeed stolen in Tacoma. That was NOT a hoax," Bieber's publicist, Melissa Victor, wrote in an email to the AP. The whole episode raised eyebrows Friday when it appeared the tweet — and subsequent tweets from an account called @gexwy — were all part of an elaborate stunt to publicize Bieber's new Beauty and a Beat video, released Friday. The video opens with text saying personal footage was stolen and uploaded "illegally."

Justin Bieber Played A Prank Lying That His Laptop Was Stolen

Bieber Becomes The Boy Who Cried Wolf


Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj

18-year-old pop 'punk' Justin Bieber, pranked the internet yesterday, in claiming his laptop with certain "footage" had been stolen. He had people feeling sorry for him and trying to help him, when it was all a lie. I asked on Twitter yesterday, if the theft had been reported to the police, contained a sex tape or unreleased music. Turns out it was just the latter and a massive publicity for his new song with schizophrenic rapper Nicki Minaj, titled "Beauty and the Beat." Bieber punked the public in more ways than one and need to give the GoGos their 1986s album title back.


Bieber shouldn't cry wolf, as it can have unintended consequences. Immediately someone tried to claim a nude photo of the singer had leaked from his laptop, which sent curious preteens and teens looking for the pic online. That was not cool regarding the prank and whoever posted the very graphic nude photo. Little girls ages 5 and up don't need to be exposed to a photo of a pervy grown man playing with his penis in an internet pic.
