Maureen O'Connor · 02/21/11 02:53PM

Case in point: At last night's NBA All-Stars game, Justin Bieber sat next to Rihanna.

Former music executive and current advertising guru Steve Stoute took a full-page ad out in the Sunday New York Times basically saying, "Yo, Grammys. I'm really happy for you.

Brian Moylan · 02/21/11 02:39PMA mother in Tampa put her 15-year-old son on a street corner wearing a sign that read "GPA 1.22...Honk if I need education."

Jim Newell · 02/21/11 01:56PM
There's not exactly a surplus of news cameras in Libya right now, so plenty of reports are flying around and it's not clear which of them are true.

It could always be that smarmy kid of his doing the unconscionable.
