Well, sleuthy Internet junkies seem to think so! Kinda credible evidence has surfaced to suggest that the pair have called it quits after about a year and a half of dating. So how did these rumors come about? Well, breakup buzz started when Bieber posted a somber, black and white picture of himself on Twitter with the caption "*Lingse*". If you rearrange that gibberish, you get "single." On top of that, the star quickly deleted the post, according to Oh No They Didn't! , leading fans and followers to believe there's definitely something going on. Earlier this week, he posted a picture of himself in a tank top looking wistfully into a mirror with t

Justin Bieber playing Grey Cup halftime suggests CFL wants young fans: will it work?

Image
Will Justin Bieber's performance at halftime add any new CFL fans? Saturday's announcement that this year's Grey Cup halftime show will feature Justin Bieber (as well as the less-controversial Carly Rae Jepsen, Gordon Lightfoot and Marianas Trench) has already sparked plenty of interesting reactions , from Elliotte Friedman's " Rogers Centre to overflow with ear blood " to enthusiastic people plotting out potential set lists . Leaving aside the debate over the musical abilities of Bieber, though, what's interesting is that for the second year in a row (hello, Nickelback !), the CFL has gone with an act that's both extremely popular with groups outside the league's primary fan demographics and reviled by many inside those demographics. Of course, this year they've dialed that down by having Bieber share the stage with Jepsen, Lightfoot and Marianas Trench, so there's probably something just about everyone can at least tolerate here. That ra

The 'Never Say Never' hitmaker took to his twitter account to celebrate the life of Avalanna Routh - who had nicknamed herself 'Mrs. Bieber' after meeting her idol in February before tragically passing away from brain cancer on September 26 - and wish her a 'happy birthday'. In a series of tweets, he wrote: 'Today would of been the 7th Birthday of Mrs.Bieber. @Avalanna you changed my life. We will all celebrate you today no matter what. love u '#HAPPYBIRTHDAYAVALANNA (sic)' Justin was left devastated after learning Avalanna had died last month, describing her as one of the 'greatest spirits' he's ever known.

People News Oct 29, 2012, 20:01 GMT Justin Bieber Justin Bieber's manager always knew he would be a star. Scooter Braun is responsible for masterminding the career of the 18-year-old 'Beauty And A Beat' singer and insists Justin had star potential from day one. He told HollywoodLife.com: 'I just knew. It's hard to explain, but I just knew. 'It's like falling in love - you don't look for it, it just shows up. Like when my gut tells me, I know.' Usher has also worked with Scooter to mentor Justin and he believes despite Justin's huge success, he has a lot more to offer. He explained: 'You know what, as a performer, I think he is striving to continue to be better. You know to be able to break away from dance and performance and really be able to continue to show his talent vocally and also as a musician.' Usher previously urged Justin to enjoy his fame and make the most of everything he gets to experience. He said: 'I see him and his cra

Justin Bieber debuts owl tattoo on Instagram

Tim Mosenfelder/Getty Images, Justin Bieber/Instagram Justin Bieber practically flew up the ranks in the music business, going from a 'tween YouTube star to one of the world's most recognizable pop names in just a few short years. That could explain his newest tattoo: an owl on his left arm. "Befo the paps get me," Bieber wrote on Instagram, along with a photo of his eighth tattoo on Sunday. The 18-year-old pop star hasn't revealed any explicit reason for the large tattoo, or where he got it. But he did provide a hint in his Twitter feed by retweeting a message from a fan: "OWL symbolizes: Wise, Magestic and Powerful. Best tattoo ever @justinbieber" wrote Twitter user @letmakeitdotnl .

Yahoo Buys Justin Bieber-Backed Start-Up

New Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer has given a Justin-Bieber backed company her stamp of approval. In fact, Mayer liked it so much, she bought it-her very first acquisition since taking the reins in July. Yahoo purchased the mobile-app Stamped, which was founded in 2011 and is based in New York, for about $10 million. The purchase jibes with Mayer's stated goal during the company's third-quarter earnings call of becoming "a predominantly mobile company." "At some point at least half our technical workforce should be working on mobile," she said. Mayer verified the acquisition on Twitter with an Instagram photo from Stamped headquarters. "Got to visit our new acquisition, Stamped, this morning - happy to be reunited with Robby (@rmstein) and his team," Mayer tweeted. Stamped-which is backed by a gaggle of celebrity investors, including Ellen DeGeneres, Ryan Seacrest and Justin Bieber, along with Bain Capital Ventures, Columbia Records, Google Ventures, an

Justin Bieber's flying fear

Justin Bieber is afraid of flying . The 18-year-old pop superstar frequently jets around the world but he admits he is stricken by anxiety attacks when he boards a plane as he has no control over what happens in the air. He said: ''I just started to really not like getting on a flight. It scares me. When I get anxiety , my heart drops and starts beating really fast as if it's going to explode. ''And when there's a weird noise, it's like, what's that weird noise? People say you have more chance of getting into a car accident than a plane crash, but they do maybe one flight a year and I'm on planes all the time. And all the time I'm thinking, 'I have no control. If this plane crashes I'm dead.' ''I feel like every tim

Getty Images Justin Bieber has been averaging a new tattoo a month since the summer. So far, he's added "Believe" and a Japanese symbol to his arms and a crown to his chest since June. Over the weekend he shared his newest ink with his fans: an owl on his left arm. Bieber's owl tattoo (Instagram) The Biebs posted the shot of the new tat to his Instagram page with the caption: "Befo the paps get me." Perhaps the owl, a bird that appears as though it can turn its head all the way around, symbolizes that he's always on the lookout for sneaky photogs? They have caused him a bit of anguish on the road over the last year. This isn't the first bird tattoo for the star. His first ever ink, back in March 2010, was the outline of a bird on his left hip. Let's take a look back at Justin's tattoo timeline, shall we? Justin's bird tattoo (via Bauer Griffin) March 2010: The Biebs first got inked at the Son of a Gun tattoo parlor right aroun! d hi

Oh, just Oprah and Justin Bieber being BFFs. Obviously. It's not every day Justin Bieber gets starstruck (because let's face it... there's basically nobody more famous than him), but we gotta admit -- the proud new hamster owner did look a little starry eyed standing next to Oprah. But then again, it's OPRAH, a gal on par with only the President and maybe Britney Spears . But that's about it. Justin and Oprah met up in Chicago where he filmed a segment for her " Next Chapter " show, and though it's not confirmed, it's our professional opinion that Oprah wore a purple sweater in the Biebs' honor. In fact, we happen to think Oprah was a smidge starstruck herself, given that she tweeted all about her time with the Biebs :"Me and the Bieber just finished our interview. Good stuff! #NextChapter." Honestly, we're super into The Biebs and Oprah being BFFs. I mean, it's not like either of the! m are gonna make any new normal people

This isn't Justin Bieber's 'Dr. Dolittle 3' audition, he just became a hamster parent! Congratulations to Justin Bieber ! He's the proud new owner of the rodent's only adorable subfamily, the hamster. (Science classification, wut wut .) No idea what "Pac" means or stands for, but it's every parent's right to name their kin. As a former hamster mom myself (rest in nocturnal peace, Skipper Dee), I have some concerns about Justin's new friend. I mean, Justin did auction off his last pet, Johnson the Snake . Granted, the proceeds went to charity and he brought Johnson as his date to the 2011 VMAs just to make Selena Gomez squirm, but hamsters are a whole different animal (heh). They are delicate. Snakes eat hamsters, so actually, abandoning Johnson probably worked out for Pac. Getting rid of its #1 predator was Bieber's first ace move as a hamster owner. Forget what I sai! d about abandoning Johnson. BUT! I'm still feeling concern

Justin Bieber 'stole credit card for penis enlargement'

Washington, Oct 24( ANI ): Justin Bieber paid for his penis enlargement with a stolen credit card, and cheated on girlfriend Selena Gomez with Ke$ha, Rihanna and Penelope Cruz , according to a new lawsuit. Bieber has been sued in Michigan by a man claiming to be Gomez's father, who makes some of the most insane allegations ever documented in court, TMZ.com reported. The man is reported to have said in the court documents that Bieber borrowed 426.78 dollars from him to pay for an abortion for Gomez. "This money was used as abortion money because Justin Bieber got my daughter Selena pregnant in my bedroom, on my canadian bear rug," he wrote. The most ludicrous claim in the lawsuit regards singer Usher, who signed Bieber to his label. " Usher Raymond came to my house on the forth (sic) of july 2012 and sodomised me with a firework and lit it inside my anal area while blaring kate perry (sic) firework song in my ear drum," the man said.

The absurd documents state: "Bieber has cost me US$426.78 and never paid me back. This money was used as abortion money because Justin Bieber got my daughter Selena pregnant in my bedroom, on my canadian bear rug." Concluding the strange lawsuit, which also makes reference to Bieber's mentor Usher and pal Sean 'Diddy' Combs, the man writes, "I'm an emotional mess... America must boycott biebers (sic) music!"
