Dear Justin Bieber,
First off, let me say, I am not a Belieber. No, I don't HATE your music. It's more that fact that I don't believe I fit the key demographic which makes up this fanbase. What demographic is that? It is one made up of teenage girls who have literally shed every single one of their brain cells in order to take to Twitter this week as keyboard warriors and tweet enough times for the hashtag #WeWillAlwaysSupportYouJustin to become a trending topic...worldwide.
Up until about a year ago, I literally had no problem with you. Much like the rest of the world, we found your fanbase quite annoying, but we respected you due to the fact that you had grown from nothing to become one of the biggest names in the music industry worldwide.
But Justin, it's gone too far. In your movie, you portrayed yourself as some sweet, innocent teenager who was all about the fans. Where did this boy go? You trash hotel rooms, spray paint graffiti and spit on fans. Despite being only 19, you regularly consume alcohol and drugs in the USA. Last week was the turning point. Up until now, the world was still tolerating you. But enough is enough.
You drag raced in a HIRED car whilst under the influence of alcohol (yes, I know it wasn't over the legal limit for minors...but you are a MINOR...it's illegal!) and drugs, like marijuana and Xanax. You could have hurt someone! Why didn't you think more about this when you were first pulled over, and again when you smiled for mug shots. Seriously, who smiles for a mug shot? You're in trouble, and you'd be best to realise that before you seriously hurt someone.
As for the allegations that you're suffering from depression and that's the reason why you were taking some of the drugs: If you are suffering from depression, I am truly sorry that you have to go through that. However, it does not make driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol excusable. If I, or anyone else who was not a big name celebrity were to do this, we would face extreme fines and harsh penalties which would probably include jail time. We also mustn't forget the fact that you were driving on an expired licence.
Either way, the penalties weren't harsh enough. Think about what would have happened if you'd killed or seriously injured someone. Maybe then you would have actually taken the police and mug shots seriously.
But from the rest of the world who aren't Beliebers...Justin, please stop. It's time to grow up. You need to face the consequences or there will be worse ones to come, because the justice system won't go so easy on you a second time. Please. It's time.
