Justin Bieber Fans Protest Expensive Meet and Greet, Demand #Justice

Justin Bieber has a new album out and is about to embark on a brand new tour.


So why are fans of the singer actively angry with him? Allow us to explain…



The North American leg kicks of Bieber’s world tour kicks off in March.


It will feature the controversial artist making his way around United States and Canada through July, with pre-sales having gotten underway on Monday.


And with fans jumping online to purchase these tickets, they took note this morning of the “Ultimate Purpose Experience,” a meet-and-greet with Bieber that will cost those who sign up for it $ 2,000.


Yes, that’s $ 2,000 just to briefly meet this six-packed artist.


In response to what many see as an exorbitant price tag, the hastag “Justiceforbrokeliebers” has started to trend on Twitter, with one user expressing her dissatisfaction for the cost thusly:


“2k for a m&g do they forget that most of us are students? I can barely afford the school bus.”


Another took a slightly less serious approach, while still making her point clear:


“I want a dinner, a proposal, and a lap dance after that for 2000.”


Justin may take you by surprise with an appearance, but we doubt he’ll dance on your lap. Sorry.


What do you think of this scandal? Is Bieber charging too much just to shake his hand? Is this just how capitalism works and these fans should stop whining?


And is “Justiceforbrokeliebers” the dumbest hashtag in the history of hashtags?
