Less than eggs-tatic fans egg star in Sydney, Australia?
[May 3]
Justin Bieber is in Australia for his My World tour, and it seems at least someone in the audience last week didn’t much care for the teen heartthrob’s perfromance. The Biebs got egged while on stage in Sydney. Presumably the attack came from a non Belieber, although the Daily Mail, which has posted a Sky News Australia video of the attack by way of YouTube, noted that four of the six eggs lobbed at the star celeb appeared to come from directly above him, prompting some to suggest that the attack could have been staged.
Either way, Justin Bieber managed to finish up the song, taking a few steps back as he let a stage crew clean up the mess.
However, the attack has prompted many fans on Twitter and other social media sites to condemn the attacker, one going as far as to wite, “Dear person who threw eggs at @justinbieber in Sydney, you now have over #9millionbeliebers after you, be afraid! We go harder than hard!”
The egg attack isn’t exactly eggs-traordinary, though. Back in August 2010, video of a December 2009 show surfaced, in which Justin Bieber was smacked in the head with a water bottle, according to TMZ. But the star celeb just kept going as if nothing had happened. Likewise with the egg attack, though the Biebs may not be eager to return to Sydney anytime soon.
It’s unlikely that the Biebs is planning these attacks on himself, so it leaves one to question why anyone would go as far as paying to attend a concert just to throw eggs. Jealous boyfriends of girls smitten with the star celeb?
Justin Bieber has several more My World tour stops in Australia. Hopefully he can continue to dodge whatever fans or detractors alike may throw at him.
Plus — there are big perks to being the Biebs. Like getting to date hot teen celebrity Selena Gomez — who of the slew of Disney Princess girls is most eggs-ellent.
Selena recently opened up to Seventeen magazine, saying she was absolutely happy to be falling in love. Daily Mail reports:
The couple made their first official public appearance together at this years’ Oscars, one of Hollywood’s biggest annual events, and even co-ordinated their outfits in a very public show of unity.
‘That was our prom!’ Selena told Seventeen.
‘I don’t like hiding. I do like to keep certain things to myself, but at the end of the day, I’m eighteen, and I’m going to fall in love,’ she said of being more public of her relationship with the Baby, Baby singer.
