Intruder Arrested at Justin Bieber’s Home

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues,

An intruder has been arrested inside Justin Bieber's home.

Qianying Zhao - who stands 5'5" and weighs just 110 lb - was discovered sleeping in a bedroom inside the pop star's Atlanta home by the niece of the property owner yesterday. She called police, who woke the woman and, when questioned, the alleged trespasser claimed she had met the "Beauty and a Beat" hitmaker on Twitter and was visiting him for a birthday party.

When she realized she was too late for the party, she instead found an open door and decided to let herself in to wait for the 20-year-old singer.

According to gossip website TMZ, Zhao was arrested for criminal trespass and placed into double-locked handcuffs with her hands behind her back. It is unclear whether Justin - who moved to Atlanta recently following a string of incidents and rows with his neighbors in California - was at home at the time of the incident.

Marijuana Found in Justin Bieber’s Car

Police officers reportedly found marijuana in Justin Bieber's car.

The 19-year-old star's bodyguard was arrested in Atlanta, Georgia on Tuesday, for allegedly stealing a photographer's camera, and a small amount of the drug was uncovered in the singer's Escalade. A law enforcement source told gossip website TMZ.com that while officers were searching for the camera in the vehicle, which they retrieved and returned to the paparazzo, they also found less than an ounce of the drug and two large glass smoking pipes, but it wasn't enough to charge anyone with a crime.

The "Baby" singer's driver said he had no knowledge of what was in the back of the Escalade and usually doesn't ask questions, according to the police report. The vehicle was towed to police headquarters from a fun house that Justin had rented for the day and inspected.

Justin has been accused of using the drug regularly in the past and pilots flying his private jet last month were reportedly forced to wear oxygen masks because the plane was so thick with marijuana smoke.

Justin Bieber Planning Atlanta Move

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Meltdowns, Rumors,

Justin Bieber wants to move to Atlanta.

The 19-year-old pop superstar has been in the city since last week and has been out partying with P. Diddy, T.I. and Rick Ross and has enjoyed every minute of his time there.

Atlanta was the first place Bieber - who was raised in London, Ontario - lived when he moved to the US from Canada to embark on his music career after he was signed up by his manager Scooter Braun and he has fond memories of the place. He also hopes he will attract less attention in Atlanta, Georgia, than he does in Los Angeles.

According to TMZ, Bieber asked Diddy and T.I. for property advice and the best locations in the city.

The "Boyfriend" singer intends to start looking at properties in the next several weeks. However, Bieber is not completely turning his back on Los Angeles County and has been looking at various 20 acre estates in Hidden Valley.

Liam Hemsworth Dating Nina Dobrev?

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Dating, Paparazzi Photos, Rumors,

Nina Dobrev and Liam Hemsworth Liam Hemsworth has been spotted on a date with Nina Dobrev.

The Hunger Games star Liam - who split from fiancee Miley Cyrus last year - was in the Corner Tavern in Atlanta, on Friday with The Vampire Diaries actress, and an eyewitness says they even ended their night with a "sensual" kiss.

"They stayed around two to three hours and Nina left before Liam, and as she was leaving they gave each other a good night kiss... [and] she ran off into a car service with her friend. The kisses were on the lips publicly outside of the bar... and it was three sensual kisses on the lips. They stuck together pretty much the whole time, but I think Nina got sick of pictures [with fans] because Liam was the highlight, so to speak," Jahti Anderson told Celebuzz.com.

While they were with other friends and happily posed for pictures separately, Jahti claims they acted like they were on a date. "They were there together and were with a couple other friends. They were having a great time. They were definitely acting couple-y. They were drinking beers and mostly standing and talking near the bar," Jahti added.

Usher Angers Voters in Atlanta

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Rants,

Usher Voters in Atlanta were furious when Usher was allowed to skip to the front of the line on election day.

The "OMG" hitmaker was given special treatment by polling officials, where he was allowed to bypass the long queue to vote during the recent US presidential election, and his fellow voters are unhappy with the move, according to local TV station WSBTV. However, election officials insist Usher was allowed to move to the front of the line to prevent chaos among those present.

They said in a statement that the site's poll manager "was directed to ensure that [Usher's] presence would not become a distraction by taking necessary measures to move [him] through the process as expeditiously as possible. At no point was this decision made for preferential treatment, but to avoid a distraction at the poll."

Sam Worthington has been charged with disorderly conduct.

The Avatar star was arrested on Saturday for allegedly fighting and had to be subdued with pepper spray.

The incident is said to have been captured in full by the bar's security cameras and Sam was put in handcuffs until police arrived at the scene and arrested him.

The history of the NHL: The Future Era

Posted by Adrien Griffin Categories: Athletes, NHL,

Taylor Hall In the eras of the NHL, each comprising roughly 25 years of hockey history, one of the most exciting periods to consider is the one ahead; the Future Era. In today’s game, scoring is going up as the game becomes faster, cleaner and younger, which is exactly what the NHL wanted. As teams continue to find out how to best utilize the salary cap, the game will become more competitive and player contracts will stay within the stratosphere of what’s reasonable, unlike some other sports.
