“Hot, Ready, Legal”
Once billed as a an act your mother could love, Justin Bieber continues his calculated transition into somewhat of a sex symbol on the cover of Rolling Stone‘s latest issue.
It’s a contrived narrative that’s been played out many a time before. Yet, it’s a narrative we can’t blame Team Bieber for employing – given the difficulties many child stars face when they pander to Disney-esque audience for longer than they “should”.
At 18, Bieber is a mini-industry – with many hinging their annual pay-cheque’s on his success. Hence, ensuring that success continues means more covers like this, more crotch grabs during performances, and more use of apparently “cool” words such as “swaggie”.
Bieber’s latest album ‘Believe’ is in stores now.

That thing about disco music on that site is so true and very reminiscent of what’s happened now with pop music.

cannot stand this idiot. He is sooo unappealing. and why do young girls find him attractive? I can only assume they have lesbian tendencies and have not discovered that side of themselves yet because he just doesnt even look like a boy imo.
Selena Gomez is so weird for ‘dating’ him.

WTF. Hot? Not. Ready? He’s already busting down his girlfriend Selena Gomez not to mention that secret baby that he paid that chick off to go away. And Legal? He’s already doing what adults do. That’s why kid celebrities grow up so F’d up. Moving along.

Am I the only one who thinks he looks like a butch lesbian? I think it’s the hair and the structure of his face. I can’t believe little girls go crazy over him.

He looks like Ellen Degeneres. He looks homosexual. You put Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in the same outfit and hair when they were young and they looked like sexy bad boys. I’m sorry. Gay.

He looks less like a lesbian (ellen degenerous) and more like a 6 year old boy mixed with a really butch lesbian.
And this is what excites 12 year old girls, boys who look just like them.

Ummm no, is that the actual consensus of the masses? I highly doubt it. I always hear the media talking about all the fans he has yet I’ve never meet anyone that likes him…hmmm…the media is forcing these neaux talent people down our throats as usual.

He has always been a really slow ager. He is most likely hitting puberty like really soon. I mean his voice is just now changing and he is almost 18 if not already. I can’t believe anybody ever really believed that he had impregnated that lady. I knew she was a liar when she first made the claim. Her story was silly and I can almost promise you he was a virgin then.

I don’t like the cover either. In fact, I don’t like how his “team” or whoever it be have him looking. He’s a very good looking boy who they are trying to make look feminine for unknown reasons. I also notice that they are trying to make him look as young as he did when he first came out.
