The guys of Action Item hung out in the Popstar! offices before heading out on tour. They talked about meeting Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber when they opened for both artists. “We actually like to think that it was our music that made them fall in love with each other,” Anthony Li explained. “That’s what we tell people, we’re pretty convinced. We were sound checking, they met. It was very romantic, it was kind of like a movie. You’re welcome Justin and Selena.” Watch the commentary below.
A source tells E! Online gossip writer Marc Malkin that when Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez shopped at an A|X Armani Exchange store in New York City on Tuesday night (June 28), the Canadian pop star professed his love for his 18-year-old girlfriend, to which Selena responded likewise.
“They both said ‘I love you’ to each other, but Justin said it first,” the source blabbed. Selena and Justin repeatedly said they loved each other while holding hands and occasionally kissing. Selena purchased some Pima T-shirts for Justin during the retail jaunt.
Justin Bieber is striking down a report suggesting he’s hesitant to work with controversial rapper Kanye West. “Justin likes Kanye’s music, but he’s worried he’s done too many controversial things and it would hurt his image,” a source close to the Canadian pop singer’s management reportedly told Hollywood Life. But the Biebs told his Twitter followers (@justinbieber) in response:
some rumors… I just don’t know where they come from. me and @kanyewest are good. This right here is just FALSE – http://t.co/BEphwjS
correcting rumors… #ilovetwitter
After appearing on ‘The Tonight Show’ on Thursday (June 9), TMZ reports that Selena Gomez was sent to the hospital complaining of nausea and a severe headache. Though a cause of her illness is not known, fans of her boyfriend Justin Bieber are already speculating on Twitter that Selena is pregnant with a baby Bieber.
Selena Gomez tells E! News correspondent Marc Malkin that she’s not a fan on the ongoing media coverage of her romance with Justin Bieber. “It’s horrible,” the 18-year-old said. “It’s just horrible.” But when Malkin suggested she looked happy with the Canadian pop star, the singer and actress agreed. “I am happy. I’m really happy,” she said. “I just focus on my fans, music, acting and the people that make me happy.”
Justin Bieber was on the phone with Ryan Seacrest on his radio show Monday (May 23) to discuss his new fragrance ‘Someday’. “I wanted to do a fragrance for women basically because I want to be smelling the girls neck, I want to tell the girls what I like and what I think is going to be hot and what’s attractive to me so I wanted to make a fragrance that I think will be appealing and make me want to chase the girl that I smell,” the 17-year-old said. Asked what that smell is like, the Canadian pop singer said, “it just smells really good, it’s not too strong – it’s like a nice, spring, light smell.” A commercial for the fragrance will air after the season finale of ‘Glee’ on Tuesday. Listen to the interview at ryanseacrest.com.
When Justin Bieber lost out to Esperanza Spaulding for best new artist at the Grammy Awards in February, fans of the Canadian pop singer sent the winning artist death threats and a barrage of insults. Now, the Bieb has one Billboard’s Best New Artist award, but fans are once again in an angry mood. This time, it’s the 17-year-old’s girlfriend Selena Gomez that’s drawing their rage for giving her guy a kiss before he went up to accept the honor. Among the Twitter messages sent the ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ actress:

Next Media Animation offered their cartoon take on how music acts from North America have considered canceling their Japanese tours due to lingering fears of radiation and earthquakes following the tsunami. While Justin Bieber’s crew initially refused to go, the Canadian pop star and his manager whipped them into shape. The Bieb’s Canadian counterpart Avril Lavigne had a different response, nixing her performances. NMA joked that without international acts coming in, the Japanese will have to keep themselves entertained with karaoke. Watch it via YouTube below.
Maroon 5 and Justin Bieber are currently on separate tours in Japan, with the Canadian pop star and the Adam Levine fronted pop rockers donating a portion of their concert proceeds to the Japanese Red Cross for earthquake relief. Acknowledging each other on Twitter, they told followers:
Maroon 5 (@maroon5): We’re donating a portion of the proceeds from tonight’s show in Tokyo at Budokan to the Japanese Red Cross Society. See you all tonight!
Justin Bieber (@justinbieber): @maroon5 @adamlevine sounds like a good idea.. I’m in. Gonna donate a portion of my show to Japanese Red Cross too. #supportjapan #makeachange

Lucy Hale, star of the ABC Family hit ‘Pretty Little Liars’, is the latest celebrity to catch Bieber fever after watching the Canadian pop star’s 3D concert movie ‘Never Say Never’. “I loved the Justin Bieber movie! His whole story is fascinating to me,” Hale says in her Seventeen magazine cover story. “Beforehand, I didn’t understand how he got so huge so fast. I knew he was talented, and obviously he’s adorable. But after seeing the movie, I was crying and singing his songs. You couldn’t walk away from that movie without falling in love with him.”
