Fresh from a DUI incident, some leaked photos of him licking a stripper's nipple and having to hand himself into police after allegedly smacking a limo driver, you'd have thought Justin Bieber might have toned down his behaviour.
However, Justin will be Justin, and news comes that, along with 10 mates and, erm, his dad, he's hotboxed a private jet – a Gulfstream IV, to be exact – so much so that the staff had to wear oxygen masks to stay compus mentis.
One report claims, 'The captain of the flight stated that he warned the passengers, including Bieber, on several occasions to stop smoking marijuana.’
However, Justin and his mates, who were flying from Canada to New York so that they could watch the Super Bowl, continued to smoke in the pressurised cabin. And just to do proper idiot-rockstar excess to its fullest, him and his father allegedly got so lairy with a flight attendant that she had to hide.
According to a report obtained by NBC: 'The captain also stated he needed to request that the passengers stop their harassing behavior toward the flight attendant and after several warnings asked the flight attendant to stay with him near the cockpit to avoid any further abuse.’ Worse, still, to avoid either getting high (or, well, high_er_ – they* were* cruising at 33,000 feet) themselves or testing negative in those all-important drugs tests, the crew had to wear oxygen masks.
Well, it has been a year since Justin Bieber was spotted around London wearing a leather gas mask – maybe it was about time that the little people in his life caught on with the trend.
Despite all of this, when the private jet landed in New Jersey and was met by police and government agents (they've got tabs on Justin as a matter of course after his recent arrests), no marijuana was found and no-one there wanted to press any charges, so Justin and his pals were allowed to shuffle out without getting into actual trouble.
When will Justin CTFO? Well, the court date for his Miami DUI incident – where one charge of resisting arrest remains but the other two (of drinking under the influence and drag racing) have been dropped – has been set to 3 March, just days after the teen star turns 20, so we've still got a good/terrible month in him yet.
