Cue up Justin Bieber’s “Sorry”…because Biebs…I’m sorry. (I bet he absolutely can’t stand being called Biebs).
Justin Bieber…I was wrong…I…was…wrong.
Many years ago…I think it was the first time you were coming to Wells Fargo Arena, I wrote a blog ranking my Top 5 Justin Bieber songs…and it went as follows.

Oh, I thought I was so clever. I’m sorry. (Sorr—rry).
Let’s update that:
- What Do You Mean
- As Long As You Love Me
- Sorry
- Love Yourself
- Beauty and the Beat
Your recent album is fantastic…and while many probably just shook off the idea of “Justin Bieber winning a Grammy“…that album is Grammy-worthy. Well done to you.
I started looking back at all of your “controversial” moments…and I think I can side with you on most of these.
You caught a lot of grief over that whole monkey incident…and to be honest, I don’t even know what that was about. You had an illegal monkey or something? Heck, for two years, I had an illegal cat. That’s right…if the landlord of my first apartment was to ask…I would say, “no…I don’t own a cat…that litterbox is for me…I’m weird…apparently”
You get made fun of for your tattoo choices? Heck…so do I. Plus, have you seen some of the folks at Adventure Bay...and wondered…what the heck were you thinking when you got that?
People made fun of your attempt to grow a mustache? I feel your pain…I can’t grow one either, and I too looked ridiculous.
Getting carried up the Great Wall of China…who doesn’t like a piggy-back ride? If a bodyguard wants to carry you…then let them carry you.
Too many selfies? I too…am guilty…I just don’t have the abs to do the shirtless selfie.
Being made fun of for on again & off-again relationships with Selena Gomez? Growing up…we all had those too.
Egging a house? Probably not the smartest idea…but we’ve all at one point egged a house…or TPed a house.
The DUI? Alright, that wasn’t smart…can’t defend you on that one…oh, and the droopy pants look…that wasn’t a good choice.
Now aside from your droopy pants…if I were a mega-successful pop star…I would dress exactly like you.
I was literally wearing a hockey jersey with ripped jeans about 2 months ago.
With all that…I would like to say…
Justin Bieber…I’m sorry. I gave you a bum rap. Am I going to the show tonight? No…no I’m not, but that’s due to the fact that it’s a Wednesday night, and I’m incredibly tired…I certainly wouldn’t be opposed to it…and when my son or daughter asks “Can we go to a Justin Bieber concert”? I will respond with an …”Absolutely“.
