It seems that Justin's over-10 million Twitter followers don't buy magazines.

According to the Audit Bureau of Circulation's' Rapid Reporter, Justin's issue only sold 246,000 copies. But the numbers could still change slightly.

However, if they stay the same, it will be Vanity Fair's lowest-selling cover since Will Smith's "Wild, Wild, West" cover in July 1999.

But it's not just Vanity Fair that experienced low sales from a Bieber cover.
