BIEBERWATCH 2013: AMSTERDAM

Ok, I know Monday is usually my New Year’s resolution update time but YOU GUYS WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT JUSTIN BIEBER.



Normally I wouldn’t give a shit about Justin Bieber. Teenage girls obsessively love him, the internet obsessively hates him, I couldn’t care less about him. I just don’t listen to his music. I don’t see what’s the big deal about him. Teenage girls have liked shitty musicians with stupid hair long before I was a kid, he just seems like the latest in a long line of teen idols.



This time, though. He just did something so stupid and obnoxious that it’s really hard to ignore. This time, Justin Bieber –

Went to the Anne Frank House –

and actually wrote something in the guestbook –



Probably didn't need an image for guestbook but whatever.

What he wrote was Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber.



Bielebers are what fans of Justin’s music call themselves, in case you were unaware.



So basically, this guy’s wandering around the hiding place of the young girl who unintentionally became one of the most famous writers in history simply by documenting her family’s time struggling against Nazi oppression and he’s thinking “I wonder if she would have liked my music?”



Hey, Justin Bieber! Do you have any comments on the death of Margaret Thatcher?



“Well, I’m not sure what her job was but she didn’t come to any of my UK concerts so I hope the bitch burns in hell.”



What about political strife surrounding the elections in Venezuela?



“I had a really good show there once. I don’t see what the problem is.”



It’s really hard to not see him as some kind of sociopath after hearing about this. The worst part is that if Anne Frank were a teenager in 2013? Yeah, she’d probably be a fan of his music.
