Justin Bieber sure has come a long way from his early days. When he’s not getting into trouble, Bieber can be seen hanging with his fellow industry buddies knocking back a few drinks from a double styrofoam cup! When speaking on criticism that he’s trying to be black, he had this to say to The Hollywood Reporter:

“I’m very influenced by black culture, but I don’t think of it as black or white. It’s not me trying to act or pose in a certain way. It’s a lifestyle—like a suaveness or a swag, per se. But I don’t really like to say the word [‘swag’] anymore. It’s kind of played out.’”
