Bieber Fever more like The Plague Sunday.
Justin, 18, was showered in boos before and during his halftime show
performance, thoughCanada's prodigal son didn't let the hostile crowd
throw off his game, showing no sign of duress while singing his hits
Boyfriend, and Beauty and a Beat.
The Baby singer hailed the crowd, "Thank you so much Canada I love you."
What likely caused the shower of jeers was a perceived disrespect on
Justin's partearlier in the week, ashe met with Canadian Prime
Minister Stephen Harper wearing overalls and a backwards ball cap.
The Canadian leader didn't seem too upset by the slight, tweeting
Sunday, "In fairness to [Bieber]I told him I would be wearing my
overalls too."
The on-again, off-again boyfriend of Selena Gomez later explained the
lack of formality in addressing his homeland's leader.
"The pic of me and the Prime Minister was taken in a room in the arena
where i was performing at that day," he wrote on is Instagram account,
"I walked straight from my meet and greet to him, if you...expect me
to have a change of clothes let a loan a suit at that specific time
that's crazy, It wasn't like it was like I was going into his
environment we were at a hockey arena. Wow am i ever white trash."
Bieber's colleague Carly Rae Jepsen also took the stage Sunday,
singing her smash hit Call Me Maybe, though the crowd seemed more
welcoming of her.
Don't worry too much for the Biebs, who's still getting plenty of love
south of the Canadian border, having defeated superstars Rihanna,
Maroon 5, Katy Perry and Drake for the artist of the year honors at
this month's American Music Awards.
