Guilty Pleasures – Justin Bieber
Yeah, I’m man enough to admit it – I dig the Biebs.

You had to see this coming right? He’s about as obvious a guilty pleasure as Neil Diamond. I think part of my admiration has to do with being a little late with coming to appreciate the other Justin – Mr. Timberlake. Like so many others around my age-ish, I dismissed him as a passing fad who was all sizzle, no steak. Then his solo career went huge, he brought us “Dick in a Box,” and now he’s a big actor. So when the Biebs hit it big I took the plunge and embraced his fame almost immediately.
I honestly don’t know why there are so many of you that are hatin’ on the Biebs.
Is it because he was discovered on YouTube?
– What, was he supposed to play in shitty bars in Kingman, AZ until he got discovered?
Or is it because of his ridiculous hair?
– Yeah and this is better?

Perhaps it’s because he’s too good looking?
– Oh, I didn’t realize that you had to be as ugly as Geddy Lee to have credibility.

Or do you think he’s a passing fad because he doesn’t write his own songs?
– Do you know the number of songs Elvis wrote? Zero. The Biebs writes or co-writes his own songs. Including his latest:
So let’s give some props where props are due. The kid’s got talent, personality, and dance moves. More importantly, he was able to do something that “Walking in Memphis” dude couldn’t do – repeat.
But I understand – haters gonna hate. Since I don’t want you leaving all mad going into the weekend, here’s one I know you’ll absolutely love.
That’s one of the funniest videos I’ve ever seen. Fact. Documented.
Have a great weekend!

Wow. Admitting you like the Biebs. And you’re not a 12 year old girl. Guts.
The Guilty Pleasures posts are a safe haven. Although I’m still kinda leery of posting about my love of Erasure.
I asked my niece (2nd yr at U of M) what people her age think of the Biebs. They feel kinda torn about it – love his music, but feel strange about looking at him as a sex symbol. So at least you and I don’t have that complexity to deal with…
