Justin Bieber Alleged Pot Smoking Party Photos Surface

(GettyImages.com)

Photos have surfaced purporting to show Justin Bieber smoking marijuana at a party in a hotel room on January 2.

TMZ published the three pictures late Friday, alleging that The Biebs and friends including Lil Twist lit joints at the gathering in Newport Beach the day after a paparazzo was killed trying to snap images of Bieber’s Ferrari — reportedly, in part, because he believed he’d seen the singer smoking weed.

In the party pictures (here), Bieber is seen holding what could be what TMZ calls a “smoldering blunt,” but the images are not conclusive.

Shortly after the photos surfaced, Bieber began tweeting what many outlets have interpreted as a response to the photos — although the pop star does not refer directly to the rumored marijuana use.

Echoing the language he’d used in previous Twitter missives, Bieber wrote, “Everyday growing and learning. trying to be better. u get knocked down, u get up.”

“Back on tour tomorrow. ready to see u all smile. time to do what im supposed to be doing. performing,” he continued.

Later, Bieber added, “I see all of u. i hear all of u. i never want to let any of you down. i love u. and..thank u. #beliebers.”

“Like i said…2013…new challenges. new doubters…Im ready,” continued Bieber. “We are ready. see u all tomorrow and everyday after that. #BELIEVEtour.”

Gossip Cop has reached out to Bieber’s camp for comment.

  • Mmhmmm

    No “allegedly”. My friend roomed at the same hotel as Bieber awhile ago and said his whole floor smelled of weed.

  • http://twitter.com/pardisewillfind pardisewillfind

    Yes, it’s not allegedly. He already spoke about. Why are people surprised?

  • No one

    Oh it’s soo sad and people thought he was the PERFECT role model guess that not true no more I blame his stupid thug friends
    They are all rappers (mostly) who are famous for the bad reputation
    I wish hs family could stand up and and do something about this or even scooter isn’t scooter going to be be blamed for bad reputation on justin

    wow.

  • Tammy

    scooter can represent justin,but cannot control him as he is 18 years now. In addition to,he’s also a teen and bound to make mistakes. However, it is a lot of pressure to have at 18 years old.

  • mick

    Oh for Gods sake who is really surprised by this? Most young people and even old people smoke pot. Musicians in general are well known to smoke both pot and cigarettes. Someday it will be legal in all of the USA just like alcohol is for people over a certain age and I’ll be glad when that day happens. If some kid is going to start smoking pot because they see their idol smoking it then they have more problems then just being a fan of Bieber.

  • leave him alone

    He is 18 and needs to try things out and figure things out for himslef. Hypocrisy. Average age kids try pot in Ameriaca is 13, people 13 not 18!!!

  • omaima

    This is not justin this is robin verrecas.. -_-

  • Jamie T

    With Justins friends? I don’t buy it for a second

  • http://www.facebook.com/josepaulo.job Jose Paulo Job

    Anyone who saw who he was hanging with was concerned about him , I don´t know how his parents let him hang with those rappers and their foul mouths ! He used to be such a good guy !

  • http://twitter.com/kylew1973 Kiwi73

    I imagine the ALLEGED gay sex photos will be next. (oops did I type that out loud?)

  • Truth

    Who really cares o.O … leave the kid alone, he needs to self-medicate. Step in his shoes for a day and see how you feel, the dude probably travels constantly, and aint sh!t wrong with a blunt every now and then. Lighten up.

  • Truth

    Matter of fact, im gonna light one up for justin! go beibs!

  • http://twitter.com/1darkeclipse darkeclipse

    Yeah try new things like smoking pot. it can ruin your life.

  • Guest

    Bye bye Bieber’s career

  • Guest

    That kind of enabler attitude doesn’t help anyone.

  • Lena

    I totally agree with you. It’s not going to ruin his career. Do you know how many people in the Hollywood industry smoke pot or have smoke pot? Put it this way: there are probably more people who have done it, then people who haven’t. At least he was in a house and not driving. People need to give the kid a break.

  • Carla

    Tell that to the thousands of people who do it on a daily basis. I think people are generally being a tad bit dramatic considering the fact that he’s not the first celeb to do it.

  • Jessica Freedmen

    His career is already grinding to a halt

    No it’s not, Robin denied it being him on twitter. Stop with the denial.

  • peppermintulip

    Like lolimama said Robin has already said it wasn’t him. He also pointed out he doesn’t have pierced ears.

  • DontNeedAUsername

    Funny when actually his concerts are full with people OVER 15. That argument is real old

  • Guest

    Thug friends? Blaming them just makes you look stupid they don’t make him do shit. Who said they even introduced it to him. People like u blaming actions of him on others is the same reason why most people fail to take responsibility for their own actions. Not only do you need to fix your mind set but your grammar and English is just as terrible. Who gives a shot about his image. The kid is going to do what he wants regardless. Weed WHICH many celebs do doesn’t mean someone is going to be Lindsey Logan who actually has a DRINKING problem. And it sure as hell don’t ruin his job when countless ther celebs do it as well alog with everyone else on the planet. What can his family do? I’m sure his family knows and has known they aren’t dumb. He’s 18. Not 8 they can’t force him to do anything and scooter doesn’t either. He’s his manager not a miracle worker. This does nothing. He never was perfect only one that thought he was is some Of his fans who are brainwashed.

  • DontNeedAUsername

    Rappers and foul mouths? NEWFLASH you don’t even know them. Last time I checked being a rapper doesn’t mean anything I know people who aren’t rappers at all and curse like sailors so clearly you are ignorant to throw judgements his parents can’t make him do anything he’s 18. Not five.

  • Guest

    Hat whole 12 yr old comment makes you look dumb. And second he clearly does respect women. And unless you’ve been around him you can’t say he doesn’t. He never said he wouldn’t drink and he even POSTED a picture of a bottle of vodka that he was having for New Years. His fans are fine with it. And so is everyone else. Obv. It’s weed not cocaine. Only fans having a problem with it are the little ones who can’t even so much as drive.

  • DontNeedAUsername

    Exactly I’m yet to see the problem. I’m yet to see weed kill someone. The people who make this article and the writers of tmz prob do it themselves.

  • http://www.facebook.com/GeorgePoppy George Rodriguez

    wow…tough statements…blew me away beebs…

  • SCREWYOU

    OHMYGOD! Leave him the fuck alone already! Of course he’s gonna fuck up he’s 18 for christ’s sake! He’s not perfect! He’s going to make mistakes, but he will eventually learn from them! People are so damn annoying, stop judging him on every little move he makes. You guys are sick. What do you expect He’s a teenage boy living on his own! Everyone drinks or smokes at one point in their life so LEAVE HIM ALONE! Holy fucking crap, get off the guys back. These sites are so damn stupid.

  • EffOff

    So WHAT. Your friend is probably a liar desperate for attention.

  • Arcachnar

    Weed…fine. At that age or earlier (12) most boys and girls experiments with sex, cigarettes, booze and weed. Hard drugs and alcohol DOES kill people. Some of my best friends died through this way. I do hope that Justin makes the right decisions.

  • LMAO

    Wake up people they all smoke pot yes all your favorite music singers young and old amro all your favorite TV actors and movie actors all smoke pot and are you ready for his they also drink OMG. FYI your kids someday will drink and smoke pot as well even if they only do it once they will do it not a big deal.

  • Jaded28

    First of all the kid is no longer a kid. According to the law he’s an adult. Second when has it become the responsibility of a celebrity “kid” to be a role model? I think maybe that’s the problem with children today is that rather than having their parents as role models their parents have left that job up to celebrities.
    The only thing about celebrities to look up to is that most of them have worked very very hard and continue to do so for what they have. I know from the outside it looks easy, but 18 hour work days, shooting videos in blistering heat or freezing cold, doing a two hour concert in one city and 24 hours later doing it again in another is a lot of work. Add to that doing it all under the eagle eyes of 30 people watching you and commenting and judging your life will probably make you a bit crazy.
    And third, marijuana is not really illegal in California. You can freely get it with a med card, and you can get one of those for pretty much any ailment. I personally would rather see someone smoking pot than popping prescription pills, that certainly didn’t help Lindsey Lohan who’s main issues were prescription pills, and alcohol. Last time I checked no one has ever OD’d from smoking a bowl, but we’ve lost plenty of talented people to prescription pills and alcohol.
    I personally don’t smoke. I don’t like pot, and I have no interest, but I also don’t like McDonald’s (which by the way is probably worse for you than pot). Does that mean I should stand outside of McD’s everyday and shame anyone who walks in?

  • MaddieLurie

    I’m absolutely shocked I can’t believe Justin would do something like that

  • DontNeedAUsername

    Amen. Best said comment

  • dchopsey

    The problem: IT’S ILLEGAL. And to say a “little weed” doesn’t lead to other drugs is TOTALLY FALSE because it does. A person can feel they can do even more dangerous drugs; THAT IS THE PROBLEM!!!!!!!

  • Guest

    Here’s your problem. #1 it’s actual LEGAL in many states now including California. Please learn your facts. And even if it’s not how gives a damn people have done it and still do for years. #2 that person CLEARLY SAID weed. They did not say anything about “little” so clearly you should get some classes and learn how to freaking read. #3. Weed actually does not and being someone who teaches about drugs in law enforcement to Tweens and other young adults I would know. You obviously do not. Especially when i know for a FACT of two adults now over the age of 50 who have smoked weed since the age of their teens and are perfectly fine and in better conduction than yourself and more successful I’m sure. #4 the only problem is that you care when you don’t even know him and he sure as heck isn’t your child.

  • DontNeedAUsername

    The fact that person is even trying to convince me otherwise is hilarious.

  • SHEEP HERDER

    YOU are what’s wrong with this world. Kill yourself.

  • vc

    OMFG it’s probably not pot. tmz go to hell. -_-

  • http://www.facebook.com/iamgonnacrumbonu Benjamin Dover

    Weed can lead to other drugs but I’ve known people who just did weed and weed alone but there’s not that many of them though. Some people just keep trying to get higher and higher until they hit rock bottom once they get the real hard shit that knocks them on their ass lol.

  • ContrivedIrony

    Don’t try new things like getting in a relationship. It can ruin your life.

  • Venus

    If people want to get high, they’ll find a way to do it, whether or not weed is involved. Weed just happens to be relatively cheap and accessible, making it an easy choice for those already set on doing drugs. Saying weed /causes/ people to try drugs is faulty causation and isn’t a legitimate argument. Try again.

  • Nashwan Al-Thari

    And milk can lead to water which may also lead to alcohol the gateway to harder drugs is not only illogical but also weak.

  • Dude

    Weed does lead to “trying” other drugs. Don’t sit there behind your screen of lies and tell me it doesn’t. I’ve done other drugs while high and just about everyone of my friends have tried other drugs because they were high. Just because you are in the minority and only smoked weed your whole life doesn’t mean that there are thousands of other kids doing harder drugs.

  • Adam

    It actually doesn’t…. You embody the ignorant closeminded people who blindly believe the propaganda fed to you by greedy corporate bastards who perpetuate the prohibition of a relatively harmless substance solely because they know the benefits of it and it’s sister plant hemp would completely trump their products in terms of benefits. Marijuana is less addictive than an array of substances which you probably consume on a daily basis. Yes, it is addictive in the sense that you can be per say “addicted” to anything you enjoy doing and would like to do it often such as a sport or hobby. Quitters experience few if any withdrawal symptoms that accompany actual deadly drugs. As to the gateway part, statistics that show this are somewhat erroneous in that if people are going to use harder drugs they’ll obviously use less harmful drugs such as marijuana. If someone isn’t going to use drugs at all they’re not in the statistic for either marijuana or harder drugs giving the illusion that marijuana will cause an individual to proceed on to harmful, harder drugs. I’m also furious that some people are blowing up about the marijuana that is present but noone seems to be at all perturbed by the exceedingly more harmful substance alcohol which litters the room. The ignorance in this country will never cease to surprise me.

  • informer

    Weed never leads to trying other drugs peer pressure does the same peer pressure present when someone starts drinking smoking weed or taking heroin no such thing as a gateway drug. The only reason people think of it as leading to harder drugs is because it’s the least damaging of all illegal drugs so if that’s wrongly illegal then maybe drugs like ecstasy and cocaine have had the same label.

  • Guest

    It’s acctually not legal. It’s decriminalized. which means you can still get in trouble for it.. The only way its legal is for people with a doctors note, Also the pot they get has less THC. Just an Fyi you morons,,,,

  • http://www.facebook.com/wesley.hartman1 Wesley Hartman

    hell yea bieber is smoking weed! do it man!

  • http://www.facebook.com/andy.halkyard Andy Halkyard

    and if they weren’t high when trying other drugs, they were drunk. don’t give me that bullshit. weed doesn’t lead to other drugs, peer pressure does. just because you were weak and succumbed to said peer pressure doesn’t make your statement true or valid.

  • Kishan

    Lol retard.. if you have done other drugs because of weed you
    1) are fucking retarded
    2) live in a terrible area
    3) were at a rave/concert
    4) surrounded by the wrong people/know terrible dealers
    STFU and get your facts straight.. about 94-98% of marijuana users have only used marijuana. Hard drugs are more common in non marijuana users than they are in marijuana users so go learn something.

  • Kishan

    No.. saying weed, a natural substance used for centuries for good purposes, can lead to other drugs is totally false. Go watch this documentary and educate your misinformed brain http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jO_ncXj7RE. Saying weed which is not a drug can lead to other actual what I would consider drugs is like saying milk leads to soda or alcohol. Did you know it’s illegal to use a fake name on the internet, or that it’s illegal to sing Happy Birthday in public, own permanent markers in a public place or connect to unsecure Wi-Fi networks? I bet you do atleast 1 of those or 1 of the hundreds of other laws people break every day and I bet you don’t give a shit if it’s legal or not. The only reason weed can cause problems is because of the exact reason you state, its illegal. The illegality of marijuana causes more problems than it would if it were legal. Go learn you misinformed, ignorant, biased, and idiotic human being.

    fuck that faggot and fuck TMZ. Weed

  • JDL

    I live in California and weed is only legal if a doctor prescribes it to you but the biggest problem is it’s still illegal to possess pot according to the government agencies that is why pot shops has been raided and being forced to shut down here in California.

  • JDL

    The best thing is to be completely drug free like me i have never done drugs in my 43 yr life, I have been asked if i wanted some drugs, I know people who have done drugs and who have gotten busted for doing drugs even people who haven’t done drugs but were with people who did have drugs got busted.

  • http://www.facebook.com/jro.rice Jeronimo Plata

    The idea that the weed produced in and shipped to a certain state has less THC in it is fucking retarded, Go back to grade school you mongoloid fuck.

  • JJ13

    Main issue should not be weed ,it should be a push for more regulations of paparatzi ,limiting anything that in turn could hurt the photographer ,the subject and what environment they are In. Whether its while driving , during personal ceremonies,such as funerals & weddings, in court situations or any event that would crowed an area that ,leaving no room for an emergency exit to any of the above individuals.
    Yes Hollywood stardom comes with the price of losing your normal freedom of privacy but thrre should definitely have a penal code stating the above actions which would allow a judicial presence to determine if a code of law was used that resulted in an injury or death to any personnel involved.

    You’re an idiot. Idiot

  • kim

    Why is it that a drug that typically mellows people out is illegal, but alcohol, which makes you belligerent and violent in most cases, is completely legal? Who gives a damn if he smoked? I smoked weed with no desire to gateway into harder shit. As long as he was not driving or hurting anyone, why should we care? It’s like alcohol in that respect. Be responsible and don’t try to get out of what’scoming your way if you hurt someone.

  • kim

    And if you use weed as an excuse to gateway to harder drugs, you deserve anything you get. That is your own poor judgement. Not the weed.

  • kim

    Alcohol was illegal too. It actually got put in the constitution. It got bootlegged and organized crime got a stellar place to make money. It was deregulated and people got sick and died from stuff that wss being made in bath tubs and barns. Should people quit drinking since it was outlawed once for being a big gateway to sins of the flesh?

  • DallinCulkin

    i’m so curious that everybody have already known that drugs do harm to their bodies,so why people still want to do that:<that kinda stupid tho

  • Anonymous

    I’ve never seen anyone stop mid-puff and go, “you know what I’ll try next… meth.” It’s not a fucking gateway drug so calm your shit.

  • oknowlook

    no it doesnt. you get the same stuff but you have an OFFICIAL reason to smoke it. Pineapple Kush before and after the card is still Pineapple Kush

  • oknowlook

    weed doesnt lead to trying new drugs. it is the dealers that they get it from. the dealers hold much more than just pot and try to talk the kids into a more expensive product. its like if you get an xbox silver membership and they are like “yea the membership you have is nice….but if you get the gold u can be online. it costs more but you get more out of it”. making it medical will make it so that ONLY pot is sold to them in the dispenseries

  • oknowlook

    weed enhances it doesnt blur. thats why justin can make smooth songs and lil wayne (who takes a slew of drugs) makes choppy foul music.

    Pot helps so many people in a lot of ways such as pain, stomach problems and mental problems.. Why is that the ones who have never smoked pot say such horrid things about it?? It should be legalized every where to help those in need. Everyone has their opinion but those who have used it for medical reasons know that it helps tremendously.. If pot was controlled when used medically it would help a lot of people…
