Justin Bieber’s arrest report: “Why the f*** are you doing this to me?”

0

Justin Bieber’s police report from this morning’s earlier DUI offence has been unveiled online.

The report, wetted by the Miami Beach Police Department, sees both Bieber’s and the arresting officer’s insight as to the happenings of the situation after the singer was arrested following violence and driving with an expired licence (alongside being under the influence of alcohol) in the early hours.

The report states that whilst Bieber was indeed under the influence of alcohol, it was unknown as to whether he was under the influence of drugs.

Noting Bieber’s ‘bloodshot eyes’, the arresting officer said “I immediately smelled the odor of alcohol emanating from the driver’s breath”, and that Bieber was making “slow, deliberate” movements and had a “stupor look on his face.”

Bieber’s arrogance prevailed when questioned by officers, responding with “What the fuck did I do? Why did you stop me?”, continuing “I ain’t got no fucking weapons…. Why do you have to search me? What the fuck is this about?”

Read the full report in the images below; Bieber has since been bailed $2,500, broken down to $1,000 for driving under the influence, $1,000 for resisting arrest without violence and $500 for driving with an expired licence.

All’s good in the MKS hood: “Hold tight. We’re comin”

0

Original Sugababes Mutya Keisha Siobhan (MKS) have dispelled rumours of any infighting, declaring on Twitter earlier this evening “We love all of you guys! Hold tight. We’re com in”

The trio have been notably absent of late amid rumours of being dropped by their label and management after their first single as a reunited trio Flatline failed to set the charts alight upon its release back in September.

Earlier last week, Keisha Buchanan raised eyebrows after publicly struggling to get hold of bandmate Mutya Buena, however worries were quickly put to bed by Buena who tweeted “Nothing’s goin on dnt worry no red Alerts everyone’s on holiday at the moment ….. I’m chillin with family fones on silent”

The group followed on their tweet by thanking fans for their support.

Here’s hoping we’ll be hearing some of that new material sooner rather than later then!

New music: Jennifer Lopez – ‘Girls’

Jennifer Lopez has premiered her new song, Girls.

The track, produced by DJ Mustard, is the first release from JLo’s forthcoming studio album, expected later this year, however the timing of the unveiling is bizarre, seeing as Ms Lopez shared a snippet of different track ‘Same Girl’ only last week.

Maybe there’s trouble in the Lopez-camp on deciding what the REAL first single should be, either way though, this is a nice return to the ‘Jenny From The Block’ that we cherished in the early 2000’s. More of this please JLo.

Take a listen to Girls below:

With internet rumours swirling around the ‘are they, aren’t they?’ when it comes to a new Outkast record, Big Boi, one half of the famed hip-hop duo, has confirmed that a new solo album is in the works.

We’ve got a couple new jams we recorded in the studio recently, so look out for that new Big Boi solo record coming too. So, you know, we’re just staying working, man.”

Outkast are set to perform 40 festival dates this year, including Coachella and The Governers’ Ball. With more to be announced, we’re of course still rooting on ‘that’ Glastonbury announcement.

After unveiling the audio all the way back in September, Jennifer Hudson has premiered the official visual accompaniment to T.I.-featuring I Can’t Describe (The Way I Feel).

The Pharrell Williams-produced song, feels like the ‘older sibling’ to 2008 hit Spotlight – no bad thing as the latter helped launch Hudson as a credible R&B artist.

I Can’t Describe (The Way I Feel) is the first cut from Hudson’s forthcoming third studio LP, which is set to feature production credits from both Timbaland and Pharrell.

Angel ‘does a Beyonce’ and drops new track and video for ‘Scared’
