    If you think you've seen it all there is more.

    Do you think Justin would do something like this to grab more attention? If LAPD is investigating then it means they are taking that woman's allegation seriously.

    Celebrities can do anything to get attention. I think Justin can do this to grab more attention.

    He should stop hanging out with the thugs he's hanging out with. He needs a couple of good role-models to change the path of his life, otherwise he will end up in even deeper trouble.

    One line of thinking on the longstanding trend of child stars to "go bad" (a la Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, and now Justin) is that their agents/publicists arrange for some of this so that the child star starts to be viewed as a potential adult star (with an "edge" of course) that will keep the revenue stream rolling. Those would be the adherents to the "there is no bad PR" philosophy. Another line of thinking is that child stars become so spoiled that they cannot control their behavior because they never learned to during their most formative years because they were surrounded by greedy sycophants.

    It is probably a combination of both of these reasons, in my opinion. What is tragic is how many child stars end up with major life problems when they are no longer cute or cuddly or whatever made them famous in the first place. Of course, there are the ones that go on to even greater achievement (e.g., Shirley Temple Black who became a U.S. ambassador; the Olsen twins who have gone on to become fashion entrepreneurs/billionaires, etc.) So it is a mixed bag, but I would not want my children to roll those dice.

    He maybe just want to know if his photo has in cell phone or not, he doesn't want to see his photo shooting with snapshot.

    Well, wait and see how LAPD cops will determine if a crime occurred!

    Why am I not even surprised? Of course it's Justin Bieber, he's going to end up to be like Lindsay Lohan or even worse just as I expected and attempted robbery is probably just the beginning. Seems that every teenagers who is singers and became famous, having the fame and is paid millions of dollars is going to end up breaking laws and abuse themselves; In fact I am surprised that Taylor Swift is the exception which is a good thing but that's very rare in music industry!

    About seven or eight years ago, I was in Baltimore International Airport with some time between flights. I wanted to get something for my then 16-year-old daughter and I went into a cosmetics store in the terminal. Having no idea what to get her, I walked up to a tall, lanky blonde who was standing with another girl her age (they appeared to be the same age as my daughter) and asked for her assistance. She started going on and on about some gold lip gloss or something and handed one of them to me. I thanked her and went to the counter to pay for it. As I was leaving, an imposing blonde matron came up to me, handed me a business card and said, "That was my daughter that helped you pick out the lip gloss and she is going to be famous!" Not knowing what to say, I thanked her and slipped the card into the bag with the cosmetic. When I got home later that night, I gave the gift to my daughter and said there was some girl that picked this out for you...her mother thinks that she will be famous or something." My daughter replied, "You met Taylor Swift? I like her songs!" This was before Taylor became a household name, but my teenage daughter had already heard of her.

    Anyway, she seemed like a very down to earth young lady with a VERY strong and protective stage mother. Might be the right combination to succeed in that type of life.

    Yes and no. She ended up dating a few really crappy boyfriends who kept dumping her (or maybe she kept dumping them). She was kind of a role model to a lot of young girls, until she started dating troubled men. Maybe lack of a male influence in her home? I don't know.

    I have to admit that I have not really followed her career or love life. I assumed that things were going fairly well as she has not gotten arrested, made a porn video, or been filmed twerking. Funny, how the bar has gotten so low for me with young entertainers.

    Interesting story! I am not fan of her or listen to her as I don't even know her songs but I do follow up the news everyday (I read all over) and there's always celebrities names popping up saying either they is going to jail for drugs, weapons, etc etc but never seen Taylor Swift on the news about anything that's bad.

    Like Qwikad said that she has crappy boyfriends which is true, but I believe they are what made her successful as singer because most of her songs are about breakup and making up. But of course everyone will have boyfriend or girlfriend and many of them until the mr. right or ms. right comes along.

    But nonetheless, Taylor Swift is on the right track in music industry.
