There was still idiots going on about "who the hell is Anne Frank?" I wanted to shake those fools.

Was it a self serving comment? Yep, must be a teenager.

As for the rest of the thread, you are all out of control!

Agree to disagree and let people be who they are, whether you believe them to be crass or not.

He can't.

There will be press people following him.

"Fans" stalking him.

Users attaching themselves to him.

Just hope that he will not end up "Home Alone" like Mr. Culkin.

Last I read, Mac was actually doing just fine contrary to popular belief...

I hope you are right and the pictures & stories are wrong.

^You know Whoopi Goldberg on The View yesteday said the same thing. I give the kid some credit, like I said earlier very few 19 year olds specially one thats a superstar would even bother going to this and spending an hour learning bout the holocaust. Most would be smoking weed and partying.

A lot of people are jealous and want to hate on him no matter what he does.

Meeeh, all celebs do the same trip.

Anne Frank house, pancake house, bike.

And some add Van Gogh museum and now that it's open again the Rijksmuseum.

I guess they all get the same agency to organise their trip

It's a general message to anyone bitching and moaning about mods. If you think they should do something, press report. Easy. Sorry Joe!

!

i should have never doubted you

Some people with way too much time on their hands made way too big a deal of this. Justin Beiber went to the Anne Frank house. Respect for not just going to another club.

(And I didn't read the OPs comments or any of the rest of the thread, so, whatever if I just repeated fifteen other people. )

Why was this thread moved here? This has nothing to do with music. These kinds of threads belong in GD - http://prince.org/msg/8/392842

I think that if I told you that Michael Jackson once visited Amsterdam, this thread might get a warning that anything and everything MJ should be discussed in the MJ sticky.

I think this thread should be moved to Fan gatherings

Who moved this to the music section?

He seems like a right royal prick, I mean, everyone says all kinds of outlandish shit when they're young (especially when they have a lot of hype) but fuck me if this kid isn't going to take it well when he grows out of his Demographic.

that's the problem with teenage pop stars: not only their music stinks, they also vomit nonsense when they open their mouths

that said, I HATE A LOT MORE the simpletons who buy his music, stupid pre-teen girls

Just out of interest, what music d'you think pre-teen girls should be buying?

Chuck Berry

It's obvious that Anne would have been a One Directioner.

Justin Bieber, time to shut up

CNN) -- Just when you think teen superstar Justin Bieber couldn't possibly do anything dumber, he does something that makes you do a double face palm. Bieber is truly achieving the impossible: He's making Lindsay Lohan look good.

So what did Bieber do this time? Well, over the weekend he stopped at the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam. This museum is dedicated to preserving the memory of Anne Frank, whose chronicle of her family's efforts to hide from the Nazis during World War II would later become "The Diary of Anne Frank."

Bieber ended his visit by writing in the Holocaust memorial's guest book: "Truly inspiring to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber."

For those who wonder what he's talking about, a "belieber" is a term used to describe one of Bieber's devoted fans. Apparently Bieber's take-away from visiting this Holocaust memorial was that he hoped that Anne Frank would've been a fan of his music. He may have just redefined the word "narcissistic."

There is a silver lining to this. Some of his young fans tweeted that they had never heard of Anne Frank. Consequently, the controversy surrounding his comments apparently raised awareness about the horrors of the Holocaust to some young people previously unfamiliar with it. And the Anne Frank House praised Bieber's visit.

It was being gracious. But Bieber really needs to stop talking for a while. And I don't say that as someone who harbors an inappropriate amount of dislike for the teen singer. In fact, last May I wrote a piece for CNN.com defending and actually sympathizing with Bieber when he had an altercation with the paparazzi.

But that was almost a year ago. Since then, Bieber has become unbearable.

In the last month alone, we have watched Bieber caught on tape being restrained by his bodyguards as he unleashed a stream of obscenities and threatened members of the paparazzi with physical violence. He also allegedly spit in the face of one of his neighbors and threatened him after the neighbor complained that Bieber was driving his Ferrari at 100 mph in their gated community.

Then we saw Bieber storm out of his March birthday party like a spoiled child calling it the "worst birthday." He went on to show upalmost an hour late for his concert in London. And in January, photos surfaced of Bieber smoking what the website TMZ said appeared to be weed with his friend rapper, Lil Twist.

I get it. Bieber wants the world to know he isn't a kid anymore. So he has decided to go the "bad ass" route.

But Bieber will never, ever be the tough guy he wants to be. Why? For starters, he's Canadian. When you think Canada, you think nice, often overly polite people -- not thugs.

Bieber skips apology, goes shirtless

Is criticism of Justin Bieber fair?

Second, Bieber is 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 130 pounds. Those measurements say "horse jockey," not scary guy. (Sure, actor Joe Pesci is only 5 feet 4 inches tall and known as a tough guy, but Pesci is Sicilian and was born in Newark, New Jersey, not London, Ontario.)

Bieber is clearly heading down the path of many child stars desperate to make the transformation into grown-up star. But his actions are not getting him there. Instead, he is becoming a walking punch line.

He has a few options. He could simply retire and enjoy his wealth. Estimates are that he is worth more than $100 million. Not bad for a 19-year-old kid -- from Canada. But it's unlikely that Bieber will take that route.

The other option is to avoid the fate of past teen stars who have ended up behind bars or worse as they struggled toward adulthood.

Instead, he could follow the lead of another Justin: Justin Timberlake. He, too, was a young star. First on "The Mickey Mouse Club" and then in the much better known boy band 'N Sync. Timberlake didn't try to be something he's not. He continued to make music and then made a successful transition into acting.

Decision time is now for Justin Bieber: He can be a Timberlake or a cautionary tale that parents tell their kids who want to go into show business. What's it going to be?

Hopefully he'll use this negative press as a chance to reflect on his behavior (I'm talking about everything from the entire last year when all this "rebellious bad-boy" nonsense started) and realize he needs to change. It's not cute or cool. Even if he didn't mean to come off as insensitive, he should start thinking before doing and saying things.

Come on dJJ!

What?

I should not belief what is written?

A lot of people are involved in (domestic) wars,

fighting over arguments they consider valid,

because somebody wrote them down.

Muslims and other religeous people kill others, because somebody wrote that they should.

right.

This is lame argumenting going nowhere.

Ok.

You'r right.

I degress.

The issue is that he isn't being a rebellious bad boy. Nor is he being insensitive. Nor is he even doing most of the stuff that gets reported and blown a thousand times out of proportion. He's a teenager, who just happens to be one of the most followed and reported on human beings on Earth. Honestly, he's doing a fine job. A far better job than me and pretty much every other person I knew at that age. I said WAY more ridiculous shit than that at 19.
