Justin Bieber posted a lengthy rant on Instagram bashing false rumors about himself and those comparing him to Lindsay Lohan, saying, “Look at her 2012 tax statements ;).”
In the post, the superstar denies rumors he is heading to rehab and that his recent behavior disappointed his family
He also not-so-modestly reminds us that he’s achieved a lot in his 19 years on the planet: “I’m 19 with 5 number one albums, 19 and I’ve seen the whole world. 19 and I’ve accomplished more than I could’ve ever dreamed of…I know my talent level.”
At the end of his long tirade, he pokes fun at Lindsay Lohan’s financial troubles, saying “And to those comparing me to Lindsey (sic) Lohan look at her 2012 tax statements ;)”
Bieber then thought twice about criticizing those who make less money and deleted his original tirade and re-posted without a reference to the troubled starlet.
The whole post:
“Everyone in my team has been telling me, ‘keep the press happy’ but I’m tired of all the countless lies in the press right now. Saying I’m going to rehab and how my family is disappointed in me.”
“My family is beyond proud, and nothing’s been said by them, my grandparents wouldn’t know how to reach to press even [if] they did want to so that was a lie and rehab cmon”
“if Anyone believes i need rehab thats their own stupidity lol I’m 19 with 5 number one albums, 19 and I’ve seen the whole world. 19 and I’ve accomplished more than I could’ve ever dreamed of.”
“i’m 19 and it must be scary to some people to think that this is just the beginning. I know my talent level and i know i got my head on straight. i know who i am and i know who i’m not My [message] is to to believe. My albums could be about anything but my messages have been to never say never and believe, not to believe in me, but to believe in yourself .. I honestly don’t care if you don’t believe in me because I believe in me, and look where that’s gotten me so far..”
“I’m writing this with a smile on my face and love in my heart. Letting u know first hand how I feel rather than have these story linger. I’m a good person with a big heart. And don’t think I deserve all of this negative press.”
“I’ve worked my ass off to get where I am and my hard work doesn’t stop here. i’m growing up finding myself while having people watch me and criticise (sic) me everyday i think im doing pretty damn good.”
“And to those comparing me to Lindsey Lohan look at her 2012 tax statements ;).”
