justin bieber lax detained released hours

Justin Bieber is finally free!

OK, he still has to face a trial based on his DUI charges later this year, but for now he's a free man!

The Biebs was detained at LAX for questioning by U.S. Customs on Thursday afternoon. Officials interrogated Justin for nearly FOUR HOURS before finally releasing him.

What did they even want with him?? A source close to Justin said:

"It was a routine secondary set of questioning that Justin has to go through now every time he comes back in the country because he's a foreign national.

It's standard, especially after he has had other legal issues in the U.S. in the past."

Ah, THERE it is. The Biebs is being profiled as the type who might cause trouble, based only on the fact that he looks like the type!

Of course, the type is guys who look exactly like Justin Bieber and present official documentation identifying them as Justin Bieber, but still! Profiling!

It is not profiling you dumb ass. He is facing criminal charges in the US. Why should he be treated any different. His own behaviour has put him in this position. If he did not have any charges he would be treated like any other visitor to your country with open arms. Stop defending him. His celebrity status should not be a factor. It is his behaviour while "visiting" your country is what is measured. Hey I am sure that Canada would love for him to move to the states and become a citizen there. We don't want him

HOW is that profiling? The source never once said it had anything to do with his looks! He's a foreign national with a criminal past, and ongoing criminal investigations in the US! Being Canadian myself we are all well aware that even having a DUI in Canada can result in being turned away from the US border, decades later! He's lucky he's still got his Visa… Profiling… who wrote this!?

Re: GooseGal – I think it was sarcasm. He's been charged not convicted if so I'm not sure it will be easy to get into states. His dad does and he has record

Is there a particular reason why he constantly hovers when he walks? He looks ridiculous in a constant squat.

They should arrest him solely on how he dresses. What a freak. What does he think looks good about that?

someone needs to tell him to stop the crouching tiger walk — he looks like a neanderthal and an idiot! It's NOT cool Justin - no matter what your "swag coach" told you!

Is there ever a time he is not holding his crotch?

I have lost what respect I had left for this website after reading a claim that the ungrateful, disrespectful, arrogant justin beiber has been "profiled" as if he is an innocent person. How much are you getting paid to blindly defend these people? It must be a lot although no amount of money should justify ANYONE acting this way.

I personally have no problem with profiling and think it is a good thing.
When you have a couple of lawsuits pending I guess that is what you have to expect.

To be fair, I think this will happen to him a lot especially since he still has ongoing crimes, he wasn't singled out for nothing. And he is walking bent here because there was a swarm of paps waiting for him so he had to duck while walking/running to the car. Can't defend the crotch-grabbing tho(maybe a reflex?/). He hasn't done anything bad of late and I think he is trying to better his life, straighten out his path.

Re: Anna – He has to hold his pants up. Apparently no one's told him that pants are designed to hold themselves up, but you have to buy them in your actual size.
If they have told him, and I'm sure they have, esp. his own mom, then he is choosing pants that fall down. LMAO.

Kanye West's Pro-Trump Views: All The Celebrity Responses!

Last week, Kanye West returned to Twitter weeks ahead of his new album release.

In true Yeezy form, he went on epic rants. Most people could get on board with some of his takes on philosophy, but that all changed this week when he firmly double-downed on his love for Donald Trump.

His wife Kim Kardashian West defended him amid the controversy, tweeting in part:

"He's a free thinker, is that not allowed in America? Because some of his ideas differ from yours you have to throw in the mental health card? That's just not fair. ... Now when he spoke out about Trump... Most people (including myself) have very different feelings & opinions about this. But this is HIS opinion. I believe in people being able to have their own opinions, even if really different from mine. He never said he agrees with his politics."

But you see, Kanye tweeted a pic of himself wearing the Make America Great Again hat, and since that's Trump's political campaign slogan, it's hard for many people to think Kim's defense holds weight. Needless to say, folks came forward to call Kimye out...
