Justin Bieber gets love from One Direction after London woes

Hey, Justin Bieber, One Direction has your back.

In a turn of events that surely has every teeny-bopper and tween heart aflutter around the world, members of the British boy band have backed up the Biebs after a trip to their homeland pretty much rocked the singer’s world.

The YouTube sensation-turned-pop star got a fair share of media scrutiny during the London leg of his “Believe� tour, which included ridiculed outfits, a lackluster 19th birthday, showing up two hours late to a concert, a run-in with a paparazzo, collapsing during a show and criticism over a Portugal concert cancellation.

“Although I don’t know him personally, I do wish the press would take it easy on @justinbieber.� 1D member Louis Tomlinson tweeted.

“I really do empathise with him, I don’t see anything out of character in comparison to any other teenagers I know,� he added.

His comments were retweeted by his One Direction counterpart Zayn Malik, who added “what a dude man :D ha got your back bro!�

Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun insisted that there was nothing wrong with the Biebs, despite his outbursts on Twitter that included a lashing of the media and mopey updates.

“There’s nothing wrong with him. He’s in a great place� Braun told E! News. He added that the Portugal concert was canceled a while ago because of difficulties moving the massive tour production to the city.

“It has nothing to do with anything other than that,� Braun said. “Tell everyone Justin is good, really good.�

If you say so.
