Sometimes, the mouth looks better closed.
Justin Bieber did a fan-based Q&A interview for Q Magazine and came off sounding not only ignorant to actual facts, but like a complete and total douche.
And even better: he talked about his penis. No, I’m not kidding.
On a Thursday afternoon in a secret West London location – it has to be or his screaming fans would be everywhere – Justin Bieber is talking about his penis. “They made up a name for it. Jerry. Which is just so awkward.” The world’s biggest pop star doesn’t look awkward at all, twirling on a swivel chair, fiddling with his iPhone. He grins as he speaks like a sinister boy-clown, his words as passionate as a robot on a reduced power setting. Don’t tell your neice but we’re in Trevor Horn’s Sarm Studios. The poster of The Pogues’ Rum, Sodomy & The Lash down the corridor feels somewhat incongruous. Two of Bieber’s huge heaving entourage sit attentively just around the corner. Do you feel your penis is a Jerry or not, Justin? “They’ve already named it, so why not just keep it?” The 18-year-old bats back his lines like a professional. “I love my fans.”
And that’s how the interview starts. More interesting tidbits after the jump.
On drinking in pubs while in London (where the interview takes place):
“Not yet. I went to this spot yesterday, but it was full of old people – I can’t remember what it was called. I think it was a club. I mean, these were people, like, over 30. I’d like to go to a pub, though. [Looks over to entourage] Not that I drink yet.”
On his young fans starting sexual trends via Twitter:
“Yeah. I mean, I don’t really agree with 12-year-olds talking about those inappropriate things. I just think the younger people are, the closer the parents should watch out over the kids. [Thinks] But once they turn 13, it’s easier because they’re going to learn that stuff anyway.”
Whether Ozzy Osbourne gave him advice from the commercial they worked on together:
“He…[Laughs] not really. Usher’s given me advice. He said to have fun with what I’m doing, and always don’t take myself to seriously and Drake told me to make sure I behave. But Ozzy was a nice guy. He’s settled down a lot over the years [smiles]. But I like Black Sabbath, you know, some of the stuff. I like – what is it – School’s Out For Summer? [Q points out that it’s not by Black Sabbath] He did that song! [Q says it’s by Alice Cooper] No, he did that song!”
On his now infamous Rolling Stone interview where he answered questions based on rape and abortions:
“Yeah. [Settles down] They misquoted me completely. I never said any of the things that they said that I said. You know, I just think that it’s such a touchy subject. They were asking me such weird questions, before the time I was 17 – I think those are pretty deep questions. I think that, you know, as far as the questions they asked, I don’t think that anybody deserves to…[looks over to his people] I think we should just stay away from that.”
[Q contacted Rolling Stone for a response and received the following statement: “We love and respect Justin Bieber, but he was indeed quoted correctly in our March 2011 cover story; the article was fact-checked and we stand by our reporting.”]
I have a feeling there might be another misquoting issue from Justin and his people any day now. And speaking of that, for someone who was seriously misquoted, would you go back to the same magazine and do another interview?
Justin, just shut up and stick to singing.
Actually, you might not want to do that, either.
