NEWSJustin Bieber's Rep Says Laptop Actually Was Stolen
Oct. 13 2012, Published 12:30 p.m. ET
This is getting ridiculous.
Wednesday, Justin Bieber took to Twitter bemoaning that his laptop was stolen backstage in Tacoma, Wash.
“Sucks when u take personal footage and people don’t respect your privacy.” he wrote. “Yesterday during the show me and my tour manager Josh had some stuff stolen. Really sucks. People should respect other’s property.”

Then, on Friday, Justin revealed that the whole thing was just a way to drum up buzz about his new music video with Nicki Minaj for "Beauty and the Beat."
"Since I was 14 i have had a lot of things said about me, from dying, to taking hormones, to dying again, to stuff about my family," Justin Tweeted. "To saying i had a baby with a woman i never even met. nude pics, drugs, my family, my character...but today...today i get to be in on it."
Um. Gotcha?

To further complicate matters and annoy everyone, Bieb's publicist is now saying that the laptop actually was stolen. A statement to the AP reads: "Be very clear, the laptop was indeed stolen in Tacoma. That was NOT a hoax."
Tacoma police have confirmed that a report was filed on Wednesday, but they were unable to determine from video evidence whether the taking of the laptop was actual theft.

So, either someone filed a fake report as part of the ruse, or Justin was only referring to the @gexwy Twitter handle which was created by his camp to publically taunt him on Twitter after the initial news about the laptop was made public.
Either way, this is pretty annoying. We hope Justin is amused.
