Culture: Woman drops paternity suit against Justin Bieber

  • DNA, babies, and Bieber: Mariah Yeater, a young woman who accused Justin Bieber of being the father of her child, has withdrawn her paternity suit against the young star. Bieber had vocally denied the claims, and said he would submit to a DNA test once back in the U.S. from touring. When it was revealed Yeater had initially (and falsely) insisted her boyfriend was the child’s father, this outcome wasn’t too hard to see coming. (Photo courtesy of “iloveJB123”) source

Music: On Justin Beieber fans defacing Esperanza Spalding’s Wikipedia page

  • Look, these attacks appear personal. It appears that Ms. Esperanza Spalding’s Wikipedia page has been attacked by the Bieber faithful for her win for Best New Artist at the Grammys last night – a ringer who beat out four well-known acts. But, a piece of advice to Bieber fans: If you want to deface a page, how about the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences one? It’s their fault that the Grammys are completely out of lockstep with pop music, that favors music completely out of the popular zeitgeist. Otherwise, stop watching The Grammys. There are other, more useful, ways to show your love for musicians. source

Music: Our latest on AOL News: Justin Bieber’s Twitter stranglehold

  • Back in February, we gave Bieber a deeper analysis than he’s probably ever gotten at any other point in his career. Now, we’ve done it again – all-updated-like – for AOL News. Here’s a fun fact: Our boy the Bieb is responsible for approximately 23 million tweets over the last six months, which sounds like a lot until you consider it’s out of nearly 8 billion. Still though. It’s a freaking lot. OK, we need to take a shower. We know way too much about the teen heartthrob. We might be mistaken as a fan. source
