Justin Bieber robbery a publicity stunt for new video
It appears Justin Bieber's claim that he was robbed of "personal footage" during a tour stop in Tacoma, Washington earlier this week was a marketing stunt to drum up publicity for his music video "Beauty and the Beat" featuring Nicki Minaj.
As Gawker points out, the star got into a heated row with an anonymous Twitter user anamed "gexwy," who released two purportedly stolen videos online and then promised to release scandalous stolen footage at noon today -- the very time both he and Minaj had told fans to expect a surprise.
Sure enough, gexwy tweeted the link to the "Beauty and the Beat" video as scheduled.

So-called "entertainment"managers + social media sites = publicity stunts like... justin beiber, nicki minaj, and miley cyrus. And there are plenty more, "less than talented stars", being foisted, unto the general public, every hour, of everyday. There is not enough talent here to equal 1 supposed star. The public keeps getting inundated, day after day, sometimes yes, hour over hour, with trivial drivel from the managers, of all these lightweights. Please!!! Are we all supposed to be stupid, out here?

its amazing how many people get caught up in the media madness of " tabloid stars" such as beiber..if you can't be a star on your god given talents ie: tom hanks, johnny depp, meryl streep.....then you shouldn"t be worth a second look.
