I feel you, JB. But you shouldn’t have to be apologising. I’d like to believe this is in fact an analogy related to learning how to roll L plates, 'cos it took me at least three packs of Rizla to learn those. Really though, Bieber shouldn’t have to say sorry for doing something which is so completely commonplace in the world that it’s the smoke equivalent of drinking a Fanta.It’s totally okay for rappers to bowl around with fuck loads of weed (Sup, Juicy J?) openly smoke it on camera (Yo, Cudi!) and to write songs about it (Hiya Snoop!) so, surely it should be the same for pop stars, if we're all equal and all that?Basically, chastising Bieber for having a toke is to undo what the rap world has been trying so long to enforce. Weed is real and it's not made by the devil. I get that he's a role model for thousands of teen girls and whatever, but if they're going to become chronic weed smokers just because they saw Bieber clutching a joint is dumb. It's like saying heroin addicts based their decision to shoot up after listening to The Velvet Underground. Umm, except heroin is really bad and totally illegal anyway and weed is now totally legal (in two states).Essentially, what I'm trying to say is…Bieber, I'm in #solidarity. Wanna go for a bun next week?Follow Ryan on Twitter - @RyanBassileveryday growing and learning. trying to be better. u get knocked down, u get up.
