OK, PLEASE bear with me here. I don’t need you to agree, just hear me out. I’m going to straight up defend Justin Bieber and Kanye West. Imma do it. For realsies, I think I may have some good points! I also promise not to use any egg puns, cause I have more integrity than that.
Justin Bieber: Egg-Gate 2014
Now listen here, I won’t go around defending what Justin is doing around town. He’s kind of acting like a jerk burger. He’s been a little on the cuss word side, and kind of acting a fool here and there. The latest is Egg-gate 2K14. Allegedly, little homie threw eggs at a neighbors house with some friends, and charges are going from misdemeanor to felony with the quickness.
And now they are talking about deporting him! That must feel terrible! I mean, a fine, public service and paying for the damage is fair to me. Deportation? I think that’s intense.
Is a 12 cop deep raid a little eggssesive (ugh I’m sorry, I hope you’ll trust me once again)?
The cops found like, eight people in Justin’s house, one of whom was charged with drug possession. Since it’s JB’s house, finding drugs (whether or not they were his) isn’t a good look. During this police raid Justin was CONFINED TO HIS GARAGE because he didn’t have his lawyers present. You know, like a person who doesn’t walk around with lawyers in their back pockets of their drop crotch pants. I just picture little Justin in the garage thinking about all the things they are finding in his room. His browser history. His cell phone. I mean, I would be a wreck (the last thing I googled was “unicorn flesh” so….).
What if they do a black light test? Ew, so embarrassing!
Throwing eggs at a house sucks, and if Bieber really was one of the egg pitchers, then shame on him. But when I was growing up, I knew like a hundred kids that egged houses for shiggles. Being a 19-year-old is difficult when you’re a normie; peer pressure, pressure on yourself, girls, guys, ACNE! Also, it looks like little Justin is just doing what 19-year-old boys do. They act out, cuss and are just all around dopes. Justin Bieber is not a normie, though. He’s out of control famous so when I think about myself at 19 and the mischief I was getting into OOOO boy… then if a dozen officers forcibly entered my house and went through all my stuff, my cell phone and my friends’ stuff—are you kidding me?! I’d have a nervous breakdown!
I feel badly for Justin, because we all get to judge him and poke fun at his troublemaking, but he’s being a 19-year-old kid and a famous one at that. Maybe hold off on the federal investigation for a minute, LAPD.

Kanye West: He’s Been a Menace For the Longest
We all know I’m like, the first person to come to Ye’s defense. I kind of am obsessed and fascinated by him. I’d love the chance to have a chat with him, pick his brain and find out what exactly is in that dome of his. From his rants to his music, I’m just about that Kanye life. All that said, allegedly, he got his violence on and hit an 18-year-old.
I can’t defend violence, I’m not a huge fan of it. ‘Ye, stop that. It makes it harder to defend you, kthx. I hope he hears me. I will say though, this 18-year-old apparently said some really awful things to Kimmy Kardashian. Like, really awful. The story goes that after the victim said these nasty things, Kimmy K called Kanye and he swooped in and laid the smackdown, all the while the victim was hurling racial slurs at them.
I know it’s difficult to put yourself in Kanye’s posish, because well, he can really turn up the cray at times. And it’s hard to think like a cray. But I’m a little cray, and I have a temper. If someone said the things that the victim said to me, I would have seen red. I’m talking 50 shades of red. I also see the victim’s POV. When Kimye goes somewhere there are infinite Paparazzi that surround them, and that can be super irritating. But to spit venom on two people that are in the spotlight, and it’s not even their fault that the paps are even there, is messed up. I don’t excuse Kanye losing control of his fisticles, but I also can say with confidence that my reaction wouldn’t be too different. That’s the mother of his child, calling her terrible names is on you dude.
Not an excuse for the reaction, but a reason.
This is just my opinion though! I tend to think living the life that these dudes live, it’s so much harder to lose your temper, or maybe act out immaturely. We’ve all done that. Don’t lie, you know you did some naughty stuff in your life. Now imagine doing that naughty thing and having police, photographers and the general public up your hiney for days on end. I think you’d be a little on edge, too.
I know I would.
