Justin Bieber denies being a ‘white trash prince’
Pop star Justin Bieber has been forced to respond to vociferous criticism on Twitter after posting an Instagram picture of himself posing with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper – clad in a t-shirt, overalls and a backwards baseball cap.
Bieber donned the 1990s rapper-style outfit to receive a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal from the politician on Saturday, saying: “I met the Prime Minister in overalls lol”.
Condemnation of his dress sense was swift however with Gawker labelling the star a ‘white trash prince’ and the Twitterati lining up to denounce Bieber as ‘disrespectful’.
Responding to his critics again via Instagram, Bieber defended: “The pic of me and the Prime Minister was taken in a room in the arena where i was performing at that day. I walked straight from my meet and greet to him, if you “Hayley” expect me to have a change of clothes let a loan a suit at that specific time that’s crazy,
“It wasn’t like it was like I was going into his environment we were at a hockey arena. Wow am I ever white trash Hayley Peterson lol.”
