Justin Bieber - I dont get it...

Skinfull · 09-09-2010 10:06pm #1

All the hate I mean. Why does everyone hate him? I have never heard his "music" and I only know him from the world wide campaign of hate that seems to be happening and I just don't get it!!

The little that I do know is that the kid had a yube channel, he got picked up and manufactured and now he's a star? So why do people hate him? Hes no more or less manufactured than Xfactor or Westlife or <insert pop band here> but the hatred seems to be more intense!

Did he chuck some puppies in a river? or possibly he stabbed three young kids to death?</flippant>

People are tribal animals. There's a We Hate Justin Bieber tribe and the bigger it gets, the more people want to join.

I hope you disinfected your computer after typing his name.

Richard Noggin · 09-09-2010 10:16pm

When a fella becomes so famous and popular making crap music,some people will resent him. He has 300 million views on one youtube video.The song in question is crap. There are many many less popular yet far more talented artists around and I guess that's why he is disliked.

Chuchoter · 09-09-2010 10:19pm

When I found out he was a boy, I was so disappointed.
He'd make such a hot lesbian, vs a funny looking 11 year old like he looks now.

AckwelFoley · 09-09-2010 10:19pm

Never heard of him?

Bieber? Is he like on Sesame Street?

Ah sigh, those guys!

A little unfair to compare him to jedward, in fact it's probably unfair to compare anyone to jedward.

Yeah, Jedward is much better.

Colm! · 09-09-2010 10:33pm

I hate him because I hate his music.

Well, OK. Not all of his music. After all, if you open up Paulstretch and slow down his songs 800%, you find a thing of rare beauty.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QspuCt1FM9M

That said, his music in unedited form sucks and he needs to disappear from the face of the earth.

He's the modern excuse for people to look down their noses at pop music. Saying he's ****e is fine but saying he has no talent is snobbery.

Yeah, i'm only kidding; am with you, for the most part.
He's there to appeal to 8 year old girls and if i was an 8 year old girl i'm sure i'd love him.

foxyboxer · 09-09-2010 11:20pm

He's an androgynous singer the latest product being sold to underage pre-pubescent girls in the US.
All the girls want to 'sleep' with this heart-throb. It's all a little disturbing really and best avoided for the sake of your mental health :pac:

Star Bingo · 09-09-2010 11:23pm

easy target much? you guys are pathetic he's a living legend for christ sake. and just because your own personal taste is probably questionable, no need to question mine.

but its Jedward that bring the hi-energy and intensity. the unpredictability - raucous loose cannons in an otherwise jaded industry i had all but given up on. rock n roll saviours

mrDerek · 09-09-2010 11:24pm

my guess to why people hate him is he ****es on about being in love or exs and **** even tho hes only like 15 r 16 lol

The lad will be earning hundreds of millions by the time he's 18. Quite the target market he has.

While I agree with most of what you say (if you can make money singing crap music, power to ya) the bit in bold got me. How are jedward "loose cannons"? if anything, I would have thought them fairly tyical of the most definitely jaded industry.

IvySlayer · 09-09-2010 11:28pm

I don't get all the hate either.

He's young and he's rich. Personally I don't like his music, but he must be doing something right to earn his money.

The hatred for him is simple, jealousy. To say he has no talent, is again, stupid.

PeterIanStaker · 09-09-2010 11:32pm

It annoys me when you're watching a good youtube vid and people keep commenting and mentioning the little toadstool as not fit to hold a candle to for example Zeppelin. Well . . . Duh!! Kind of stating the ultra-obvious really, its not like they get a Zep vs Sabbath or Pink Floyd or Cream debate going.

Example here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73dvrir5kig&feature=related

Biggins · 09-09-2010 11:35pm

Ok all joking aside.

He giving the sing lark a bash for his age.
He's been used (like many!) for the sake of profit, by record companies.
He's become famous and is making a packet himself.
He's being marketed to the pre-teens and slightly upper teens which is a bit cheesy.
To a certain extent, he's over-hyped, over played and sometimes over here too much in Europe with his mediocre, forgettable next month, pop drivel.

So he's another countries single version of Jedward.

Not my taste (can't stand the chap) but then he's not being marketed to me - I'm far too old.
(I think anyone over 16 is too old - but thats just an opinion)
Another 10 years and god knows where he will be when his voice might break further.

No wonder. Its Gay

40,4783 dislikes now. I logged on specifically to "dislike" it.

And I didnt even turn the sound on.
Oh, and saying "its gay" is insulting to all the creative and talented LGBT people in music.

Biggins, I reckon in another ten years Bieber will be a meth addict in a trailer park.

JonB · 09-09-2010 11:46pm

I don't find the radio good no more. Is that a sign of old age? Listening to Joe Duffy now, its getting that bad. What next I begin to agree with the man?

Of course, who wouldnt be jealous of all the money, links etc he has. But thats not even the reason. (for me anyway)
But to be fair, talent? Who knew Autotune and lip syncing was talent? Oh wait, in this day and age it is.. :rolleyes: And he doesnt write any of he's own music.
He's a "pretty young boy" aimed at little girls who would pretty much buy anything with he's name on it because they "love" him and he's "music". Its sadly a popular formula these days, like Jonas brothers, Busted, so on and so forth. Makes Jedward look straight.. nearly.

Trekker09 · 09-09-2010 11:50pm

Crap like that is there to make real music sound even better

Star Bingo · 09-09-2010 11:51pm

for those who fail to realize such a device is about winning the hearts and minds of females the world over thus further rendering the USA a 'paradise' via their favoured method of media assault.

that he made his impact as a preteen child shows this has no bounds. just pretend you're german and never heard of him, and try not to bring him to our attention when we were blissfully unaware. because love or hate him, its PR and he becomes more famous.

whats the average age of AH? poll..

Con1988 · 10-09-2010 12:00am

and the child killer and nut bag puppy thrower are in the same catogorie?? no not at all!!

Justin Bieber is just a little fag, he is annoying lil prick, but sure the public needs a escape goat for these miserable time, why not a late blooming teenage boy!! seems like a good enough victim. he is like the puppies and children he cant fight back!!!

Apparently hes not a crap singer considering he has so many views. The song in question is crap, thats your opinion. Everybody has different taste in music.

He is disliked because of jealously and that hes made more money at the age of 15/16 then 'working class' people make in the lifetime.

So you know him personally then? How is annoying? Did you do somthing to insult you? Did he hurt your feelings? Aww, did he make you cry with jealously?

Some of the responses here are a joke. The hate is way over the top. I'm not a fan of Justin Bieber, personally his music is just not my style. I don't fecking hate the chap because of it.

Some boardies need to grow up:rolleyes:
