Orange Is The New Bieber: A Timeline Of The Pop Star's Run-Ins With The Law
In just two years, Justin Bieber has managed to get himself arrested multiple times and piss off the world while doing so. Impressive.
Since we hear about the 20-year-old pop star's ridiculous behavior on a weekly and sometimes daily basis, it's been a challenge keeping track of it all, especially when he takes his law-breaking international from time to time. We're here to sort out all of the times the millionaire made a complete fool of himself, from assaulting to drag racing and yes, peeing is restaurant buckets. We have a feeling there will be a lot more where that came from. After all, when you are young and have all the money in the world, court fines are basically pocket change.
July 2013: Peeing in a bucket and yelling obscenities
When an iPhone video leaked of the Biebs taking a leak in a bucket of what looks like a club or restaurant basement, we all scratched our heads. A friend who was with him at the time, said: "You're not gonna remember him pissin' in the restroom. Like everybody does that." Totally. He also passed a picture of Bill Clinton and yelled, "F--k Bill Clinton!" This set the tone for Justin's classiest year yet.
July 2013: Pot found on his tour bus at the US/Canadian border
Like Justin Bieber would tour the world without his friend Mary Jane? American border agents found marijuana on one of his tour buses at the border, and although Bieber wasn't on the bus at the time, this didn't stop the media's craziness. Apparently, the bus driver was cited but passengers were not. After his shows, he tweeted: "Just talking about the last couple shows. Toronto and Detroit were real! Energy was next level . Thanks!" Guess this didn't affect him too much.
November 2013: Charged for vandalism in Brazil
Justin Bieber took his talents to spray painting when he was caught in midst of a graffiti session in Brazil. Police received a complaint of the pop star and his friends vandalizing the former Hotel Nacional in Rio de Janeiro, and although they had already left the scene at that point, photos of the group in action were posted by the country's biggest news outlets. Soon enough, he was charged. He avoided time behind bars by paying what we can imagine was a hefty fine.
December 2013: Charged for assault in Toronto
Justin Bieber was charged for assault from an altercation involving him, friends and a limo driver who picked them up from a Toronto club. We recently learned the charges were however, dropped. "We welcome the decision of the office of the Crown Attorney to withdraw the charge, having reached the conclusion that there was no reasonable prospect of conviction," the official statement said. "We have always maintained Mr. Bieber’s innocence. The withdrawal of the charge is the product of a thorough and thoughtful review of the evidence by responsible prosecutors."
January 2014: Arrested for drag racing, DUI suspicion, resisting arrest in Miami
Alas, the biggest Justin Bieber f--k up of all time. Not only was he caught drag racing in a rented yellow Lamborghini, he told police he had been taking anti-depressents, drinking beer and smoking weed all day. Oh, and when they tried to arrest him, he resisted. He also didn't have a valid license on him. This major hiccup led to the spread of his infamous deposition video, in which he was a complete and utter douche. Below is just part of it.
In the midst of it all, he also posted this picture to Instagram.
June 2014: Charged for vandalism after egging a house
In a "silly prank" gone serious, Justin Bieber was caught egging a former neighbor's home and was eventually charged for vandalism, in which he ended up paying a $80,900 fine and got put on probation for two years. The sentence also entailed supervision under a 12-week anger management program, five days of community service and a 100-yard restraint from the victim's family. We doubt his new neighbors will be knocking on his door for sugar anytime soon.
August 2014: Arrested for assault and dangerous driving in Ontario
Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber added more drama to their relationship after channeling their inner Bonnie and Clyde this summer. While vacationing near his hometown, he was charged for dangerous driving after causing an ATV and minivan crash that ended in a brawl with the other driver. There were no injuries, and although he wouldn't confirm if the other person riding on the ATV with him was Selena, they were photographed riding the vehicle that same day.
