Justin Bieber Pees in Public

I think it’s fair to say that you can officially be labeled a child star brat once you casually drop your pants in a restaurant kitchen and urinate into a mop bucket on your way out of a club.

Who would do such a thing, you might ask? The answer, unsurprisingly, is Justin Bieber.

According to TMZ, the 19-year-old pop sensation was exiting a nightclub in New York earlier this year when he found himself in need of a bathroom. Because public restrooms are obviously for lowly plebs and not international superstars, Bieber decided to relieve himself in a restaurant kitchen he happened to be passing through. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the singer was filmed by his posse, who whooped and cheered, as the singer cackled at his own daring achievement.

This is just the latest in a series of obnoxious antics that have people worrying that the singer will lose some of his eager young tween fans.

Here’s hoping.
