Justin Bieber took home the first award of the night at the 40th annual American Music Awards--Favorite Male Pop/Rock Artist--but instead of his usual positivity, he set a rather bratty tone for the remainder of the evening.
Instead of leading off with the usual accolades (you know: God, parents, hard-working staff, that sort of thing), Bieber chose the rubbing-in route for his thank-you speech. "This is for all the haters who thought I'd be around for 1, 2 years," he announced, adding, "I feel like I'm gonna be here for a very long time."
In all fairness, Bieber was already under scrutiny upon arrival to the show, due to the fact that his breakup with Selena Gomez had just become public only a week ago, and they've been bouncing back and forth from off to on to off again. So, it stands to reason that he might be feeling a little prickly.
At any rate, Bieber, who was left dateless after his separation, rose to the occasion by bringing his mom, Pattie Mallette, as his date to the awards show instead.
Like any modern teenager, he chose social media as his platform to invite Mom, tweeting "@pattiemallette miss u. love u. wanna be my date this weekend? :)" on Thursday. Luckily, Mallette was free on such short notice, and tweeted back, "I would be honored! Love u sooo much!!"
It was a good thing that Bieber had a supportive woman by his side, given that fellow A-lister--and Gomez's bestie--Taylor Swift was nearby in the audience. No word if the two shared any cordialities with each other; but unlikely as Swift reportedly had dinner with Gomez Saturday night--one day after Gomez and Bieber shared a disastrous dinner date on Friday.

He should be thanking his PR team that they actually let him perform in that ~attire~
only FOUR this season irrc, and none in the Champions League.
has-been.

But you're wrong - he actually just scored in the CL last week against Shakhtar.
He's also only 28. Not a has-been.
and srry he will never be back to his peak imo
We already spent a fortune on Shevchenko and then Torres, and to just get another expensive toy for Roman? NHFT. Falcao is doing well in La Liga, but EPL is a whole different thing.
Torres might never work for us, but we have a lot of up and coming strikers, and we can get very good strikers, whom already have experience in the EPL, without having to spend a fortune on Falcao.
and falcao is coming to the premier league, eventually imo
Given the state of the Spanish economy, I think Falcao will be "reasonably" priced. Also, I'm not here for that convenient bullshit about players adjusting to the EPL, please see: Hazard, Mata, Oscar, Torres circa 2007, Demba Ba for West Ham, Aguero, Papiss Cisse, to name a few.
I definitely agree - but who would be able to afford to pay his wages? Atletico couldn't.
I'm not a Strurridge fan at all, and Lukaku is too young, but what I'm saying is, is that there are other options than Falcaco.
Dzeko for instance is superb this season, and he was great less season too. More physical than Falcao, experience in EPL, same age, and would cost us way less. And this is just one of many.
Given the state of Spanish economy...? Seriously? That's the main reason why they would boost up Falcao's price! Atleti are in huge debt, and Falcao is their biggest star. They're number 2 in La Liga now, hugely due to Falcao, do you really think they're going to be willing to let him go for less than Torres, when they know we spent 50 million on Torres, who, when we bought him wasn't scoring as much as Falcao. Aguero went to City for around £38 million and he wasn't nearly as prolific as Falcao is right now. Heck, we spent 40 on Hazard only. Falcao would be at least 50 if not more. And given that this is the 1st year since Roman bought CFC we made profit I'm not willing to risk that spending the money on someone who is a year or so younger than the striker we spent 50 million for and in addition to that has zero experience in the PL, which is way more physical than Primera.
"I'm not here for that convenient bullshit about players adjusting to the EPL,..."
When did I say that? I never said we should give Torres more time to adjust. He had more than enough.
LORD I AM PRAYING my future babby daddy will sell his ass and bring Falcao. gd, gd id even consider buying his jersey
if its not this season it will be next, you don't think Roman will try? lbr
