Justin Bieber's Mother Produces Anti-Abortion Film

Justin Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette, is an executive producer on an upcoming anti-abortion short film.

The makers of "Crescendo" hope to raise $10 million for pregnancy centers at screenings worldwide starting Feb. 28. Mallette herself will appear at some of these, said production company Movie to Movement on Friday.

The pop star's mother has written and spoken extensively about the addiction and abuse that led to her teenage pregnancy.

Mallette said in a statement she hopes her involvement with "Crescendo" will "encourage young women all over the world, just like me, to let them know that there is a place to go, people who will take care of you and a safe home to live in if you are pregnant and think you have nowhere else to turn."

Also here is some information about the centers that this film (and no doubt the allowance money of some Beliebers) will be making money for.

Placating those parents appalled by Justin's pot hobby, hm?

Doubtful. This is something she believes in .
yoshiyuki_ly 19th-Jan-2013 08:32 am (UTC)
I only say this because of the timing. I know she believes in it.

Well I'm so glad Justin Beiber's mother cares so much about my uterus that she thinks she can make decisions for it.

Shut up.

Think of all the potential income you could be making off your child's "talent" if you didn't get ALL THOSE abortions though. It adds up.

It's just one night. You'll have plenty of birthdays (God willing) and regular days to have fun.

Fuck em!

Happy Birthday!
dolldaggabuzzz 19th-Jan-2013 08:35 am (UTC)
happy birthday! its hard to believe but it gets better from here. I was so awkward growing up and my latest birthday (nine days ago) was the best i've had yet. My 21st birthday was awkward and far from fun but i had such a good time this past birthday it doesn't matter. Happy Birthday!! it does get better <3
cammiec 19th-Jan-2013 08:41 am (UTC)
if you're in the us, the best is yet to come (21st)

happy birthday!

Sorry for kidnapping all your chicks. and the latest rampage.

Hope you have some cake.

I'm sorry that things aren't working out for your birthday. As birthday twins, I hope you still have a kickass birthday. <3

popartpistol 19th-Jan-2013 09:27 am (UTC)
Happy birthday!!!!! (But srsly, people are so shit when it's not their own birthday).
To make up for their selfishness, have this child and his giant pack of cigarettes.

Or is it a normal pack of cigarettes and a tiny child?

Get used to that shit. Invite 20 people and 1 or 2 show up. If the drinking age is 21 where you are then that will be the year most people show up.

You'll have better bdays, you really will.

I think it's a universal law that after 14 we have some shit ones and that not every year is fab. I hope you had some fun though. Happy Birthday

smashy 19th-Jan-2013 11:45 am (UTC)
my fellow capricorn! happy birthday tho. really. :)

i just had one too, on the 14th. not only did no one even ask about seeing me (family included), i still haven't gotten my presents.
myhipusername 19th-Jan-2013 12:14 pm (UTC)
aw i'm sorry :( you will definitely have better birthdays, don't worry!

happy birthday tho <3
charlie 19th-Jan-2013 01:13 pm (UTC)
happy birthday, people are assholes who will continue to let you down as you venture more into adulthood but you just need to flick them away and focus on your true friends
forgethissmile 19th-Jan-2013 01:24 pm (UTC)
Hun I know exactly what that's like. I've stopped planning get-togethers for that exact reason. I'll have like 15 friends say they'll be there, then like 2 show up, because 13 found some reason not to go. People suck.
firecracker_sj 19th-Jan-2013 01:50 pm (UTC)
Screw them. Same things happened with me a few times, now I only invite those who I know will come. Happy Birthday bb!
sunleth 19th-Jan-2013 02:29 pm (UTC)
Aw I hope they got you great presents to make up for it! Happy bday!
sassypirate 19th-Jan-2013 03:02 pm (UTC)
Sorry people bailed on you. I know how it feels. But Happy Birthday to you! And you'll have better birthdays with better people.
yaoipimp 19th-Jan-2013 03:16 pm (UTC)
Happy birthday!

Don't worry, I remember one birthday around 19 - 22 somewhere where all my friends were busy and my mum took me to Burger King drive thru then dropped me off on a dual carriageway to walk home while she went to her friend's house and I sat at home with workmen who were fitting the kitchen! haha

Everyone else basically said it, things will be better! At least you know those who did show up care :)
fwee_prower 19th-Jan-2013 03:23 pm (UTC)

welcome to rarely having birthday get togethers in the coming years
i was never one of those people with a really reliable sizable group of friends
the last time i had a birthday thing with a sufficient amount of people was like my 19th birthday


happy bday bb!
go buy some lottery tickets and porn!
unchoco 19th-Jan-2013 04:50 pm (UTC)
Happy belated Birthday!
People are just assholes. They don't understand that it's more hurtful to "plan" on coming and not arrive then to state in advance that you can't come. It's the main reason why I don't do parties anymore (plus I didn't want people's used presents).
rabbitncavylove 19th-Jan-2013 04:59 pm (UTC)
It's okay. Mine was last weekend and we were supposed to go to disneyland. Same thing happened to me so I didn't get to go.

Happy birthday!

if it makes you better, I had a fucking car accident on my 18 birthday. What a day...And don't worry! This year my birthday was amazing! Screw all those people who didn't show up. Their lost.
williammiller 21st-Jan-2013 09:17 am (UTC)
Happy belated birthday.

I had a lot of friends do that to me in high school. I invited about 8 or 9 people to my party and only one showed up.

Sigh....I guess she is entitled to her...whatever it is she believes :/
seanb814 19th-Jan-2013 08:31 am (UTC)
What is her message? Please don't follow through with an abortion because like me you have the 1 in 2 billion chance of producing a money making child
chimbleysweep 19th-Jan-2013 08:31 am (UTC)
I think you have probably guessed it.
cammiec 19th-Jan-2013 08:40 am (UTC)
pretty much.

raised_eyebrows 19th-Jan-2013 08:56 am (UTC)
lol

That has got to be the worst message. "Have a baby, because one day, the little runt might make you some money!"
wauwy 19th-Jan-2013 09:00 am (UTC)
That reminds me of people who are like "what if that bb grows up to be the next Martin Luther King???"

yeah well what if he grows up to be the next Hitler? Like the argument goes both ways, try to find something else, morons

'The pop star's mother has written and spoken extensively about the addiction and abuse that led to her teenage pregnancy.'

That's sad, but that's one of the reasons why we need abortion legal.
saintssin 19th-Jan-2013 08:34 am (UTC)
FUCKING EXACTLY

I'm sorry but if you're addicted to drugs, you are not in a position to be a parent. If you're 15, you aren't in a position to be a parent. Some people are going to have children anyway; but the option has to exist for those who know they aren't ready to be parents.
k5memo 19th-Jan-2013 08:47 am (UTC)
+1

she should go after addiction and abuse and leave abortion alone. all these words start with A and she has to pick one that screams i'm an asshole.
jadziadrgnrdr 19th-Jan-2013 05:22 pm (UTC)
She probably would have made that logical connection if she hadn't fucked her brain cells up with addiction tbh. -___-

Shut up Mama Beiber.

She's got her own propaganda to sell, but I like that she's actually active in providing care for pregnant youngsters.
vehiclesshockme 19th-Jan-2013 08:35 am (UTC)
Those centers blatantly lie to pregnant youngsters and can also endanger their own health and sometimes even the potential health of the fetus that they supposedly want to save.
swissbeauty23 19th-Jan-2013 08:50 am (UTC)
exactly. they take emotionally fragile women and girls and manipulate them.
michelleantonia 19th-Jan-2013 09:58 am (UTC)
how? (I'm not being snarky, I legit don't know)
hoot 19th-Jan-2013 03:49 pm (UTC)
Uggh, once I donated money to this center for pregnant teens near where I lived. They claimed that they gave girls information to make decisions about the pregnancy, then provided them with skills training so that if they chose to keep the baby, they could know how to take care of it/cook meals for it/get a decent paying job. That all sounded great to me, so I gave them like $50.

Then I found out that they basically told women that abortion was horrible and you'd go to hell/never get pregnant again/die. That was the last $50 they got out of me.
archae_ology 19th-Jan-2013 08:35 am (UTC)
I really cannot stand this woman, and her son is a little shit. I have far too many friends from Stratford who had to deal with him both before the fame and after and they said the fame just made him even more of an entitled dick than he was before.

i have a couple stories

-my ex's friend's cousin kicked the shit out of justin because he was an arrogant turd
-i volunteered at we day a few years ago and a girl i was working with is from stratford and went to school with him, although she's a few years older and said that he would constantly swear and act like he was the coolest thing around when nobody gave a fuck about him and he got beat up a lot

"I really don't believe in abortion," Bieber says. "It's like killing a baby?" How about in cases of rape? "Um. Well, I think that's really sad, but everything happens for a reason..."
swissbeauty23 19th-Jan-2013 08:51 am (UTC)
rinanina101 19th-Jan-2013 08:55 am (UTC)
lol that was a dumbass answer but in all honesty tho, why was anyone asking him about abortion anyway? wasn't he 16 here?

he needs to stop talking
ohkimosabe 19th-Jan-2013 09:46 am (UTC)

'How about in cases of rape? "Um. Well, I think that's really sad, but everything happens for a reason..."'

Holy fuck, please don't tell me he actually said that. That's the kind of thing you'd expect to hear coming out of Mitt Romney's mouth.
distant_lines 19th-Jan-2013 03:03 pm (UTC)
That's why I can't be famous. I'd have a permanent hand outline imprinted on my face from all the face-palming I'd do because of my family. Someone would get my grandmother's phone number and she'd just go off on a spiel about needing faith and God, and how women shouldn't go out when they're married.
vehiclesshockme 19th-Jan-2013 08:37 am (UTC)
Also I would recommend this to people if you haven't seen it.

This documentary is amaaaazing!

I wish there were some spanish subtitles so I can show this to some friends.
swissbeauty23 19th-Jan-2013 08:52 am (UTC)
damn this looks interesting yet aggravating to watch
vervain 19th-Jan-2013 08:57 am (UTC)
it is the people at the Pregnancy Care Clinic lie to women about their due date and how far along they are, so they wont get an abortion.

it was so frustrating to watch but it was a really good movie

Is it possible to watch this without punching a hole in the wall?
marshiebaby 19th-Jan-2013 09:05 am (UTC)
Seriously one of the best docs I have ever seen. I was extremely outraged after I watched it & I was in tears. I highly recommend it.
carbons 19th-Jan-2013 09:21 am (UTC)
my favorite part of this is when one of the ~pregnancy centers~ tries to talk the women out of getting an abortion by buying her lunch and afterwards they interview her and she was like "lol pls, still getting an abortion"
flumes 19th-Jan-2013 09:25 am (UTC)
im watching rn thanks to this comment. the woman in the beginning is fucking nuts. i'm guessing it only gets worse from here but i srsly don't get it.
