Justin Bieber smoking weed has been caught on camera, with one photo showing the teen singer holding what appears to be a marijuana joint, landing Bieber in some hot water. He immediately responded to the alleged drug photos via his Twitter account.
"Everyday growing and learning. Trying to be better," Bieber tweeted on Saturday after TMZ posted photos of him partying with friends as he smoked a joint.
Although Bieber doesn't directly address the alleged drug photos, he merely thanks his Twitter followers for their support through "new challenges."
"Back on tour tomorrow. Ready to see u all smile. Time to do what I'm supposed to be doing. Performing," he added.
Bieber then explained his behavior by saying, "Since I was 14 i have had a lot of things said about me, from dying, to taking hormones, to dying again, to stuff about my family," he tweeted. "To saying i had a baby with a woman i never even met. nude pics, drugs, my family, my character...but today...today i get to be in on it."
Sources at the party told the website that rapper Lil Twist and his brother were rolling the blunts. The day before the pics were taken, Twist was pulled over while driving Bieber's Ferrari, and freelance photographer Chris Guerra, who was trying to snap pics of the traffic stop, was killed while crossing Sepulveda Boulevard.
