The video is reportedly unused footage from Justin's 2011 movie, Never Say Never, which was filmed back when he was 15. In an apology on Twitter, he said, "As a kid, I didn't understand the power of certain words and how they can hurt.... I'm very sorry. I take my friendships with people of all cultures very seriously and I apologize for offending or hurting anyone with my childish and inexcusable mistake."
