Justin Bieber hopes that the death of a paparazzi who was trying to photograph his car will slow the snapping masses’ relentless pursuit of him.
Justin said in a statement released by his spokesperson:
“While I was not present nor directly involved with this tragic accident, my thoughts and prayers are with the family of the victim. Hopefully this tragedy will finally inspire meaningful legislation and whatever other necessary steps to protect the lives and safety of celebrities, police officers, innocent public bystanders, and the photographers themselves.”
A photographer, who thought he spied Justin sitting in his parked white Ferrari, was struck and killed by oncoming traffic as he walked across a Los Angeles freeway to get back to his car after snapping photos.

Not going to happen. Also since the other thread isn’t going to be looked at..
Most of you all go on about how nasty and distasteful the paparazzi scene is yet they get you all these pictures to get excited about.
To be honest some of the “belieber croud” is quite honestly, evil. Death threats at the slight criticsm of Justin Bieber is so dark and cruel.
Finally someone who can type and has reason on this website. We need more people like you to handle the little girls that come on here.
We are all sad about the death of this pap, so please stop with this nonsense and drama, and pray for this pap’s family.

A few spelling errors in your post, people which do not speak English may not understand. I will translate’
Well, first off they should not have been chasing his car because there is a potential danger of increased speed in driving, as well as taking a picture.
Justin Bieber did nothing wrong at all, I mean (insert unnecessary remark here) I feel bad and all but he puts this on himself.
——-
My translation does not mean I agree with what you said.
Yo smarty I did not need ur input
Swagout!
I hope it does.
Hey this is a little random but does jb have a google + or a kik because I keep telling people he doesn’t I know he doesn’t have one but does anyone know ? Please reply back
He does not have an official page for Google +, various fan pages have been created and VEVO also has a page.
Thx so much for telling me. It’s so annoying like people keep saying he has one but he doesn’t. Does he have a kik people keep asking me and stuff I don’t think he does but it’s just so annoying people keep asking me
I think EVERONE is not different from no one and I think she Kind of right
Will Justin bieber get sent to prison? I hope not. My prayers go out to that man but he should not have been chasing or taking pics in the first place. What ever happens I will support Justin bieber. One last thing Justin bieber DOES NOT SMOKE. Biggest belieber in the world!
P.s. stop making stupid romers that Justin bieber smokes. I HATE Justin bieber haters.
You contradict yourself a bit there.
“Will Justin bieber get sent to prison? I hope not.”
So, if this WAS his fault and he did you would still support a killer ? as stated by your second comment.
‘What ever happens I will support Justin bieber.” So yeah..
” I HATE Justin bieber haters.”
This part of your comment is quite funny, you “beliebers” send death threats to people that criticize Justin Bieber yet you call yourself calm ?
Oh come on you
You are trying to correct everyone
im not hatin i love jb
Yeah right, this I their job they’re not going to stop
*is*
r u insulting jb?
Unlike some beliebers I’m not going to be like ” that man shouldn’t hav been trying to chase Justin” cuz- it’s there job!
)
What I want to say is whoever hit the man should’ve been a careful driver and shouldn’t hav made a “hit and run” scene.
Now this is part where I’m going to agree with some people cuz we all hav our opinions- but yeah this wasn’t Justin’s fault in any way so idk why they’re putting all eyes and cameras on him. Like wat the heck?!
What they should be doing is get them cameras and questions OFF of Justin and onto the person that hit the man.
Doesn’t Justin already hav enough cameras and drama in his face already?
(Prayers go out to that man that died
#Believe
Oh shut up! None wanted to happend what happend. Don’t you see that what happend, happend by accident? Think logically!
@Belieber
I mean exactly! Justin wasn’t the person that hit the paparazzi guy because if he did then I could understand why they would put all the cameras on him but they’re so busy asking Justin all of the questions- that the person who may of actually hit the guy is getting a chance to run away and may possibly end up a criminal from the rest of the way!!
And I hope they let Justin go and go actually find the person who hit the man
You said that well put
Prayers go out to the man and his family
#believe
It’s A Shame That Paparazzi Was So Caught Up In His Work That He Didn’t Realize What Was Going On Around Him.May He Rest In Peace
It wasn’t Justin’s fault so Justin isn’t going to jail or anything. Though, I wish good luck to the pap’s family. I hope other people learn from this and things like this don’t happen in the future.
Don’t people get the fact that his life was threatened a short time ago by criminals? What if the person or persons following may not be in fact persons out to do him harm.
that is what is scary about people following him in cars.
the person killed spoke to a person he called claiming he saw Justin with a pipe apparently smoking before this incident. Keep in mind it’s easy to make up a juicy story to sell to gossip sites-this has happened before. If it’s true, than Justin probably smokes on occasion as most pop stars do. It is not the end of the world although I don’t approve of it. I still support Justin regardless.
The story is that the pap guy saw Justin smoking weed from a pipe and followed him to the hotel to get a picture to prove it (and sell the pics). When he saw the car leave from the hotel again he thought it was Justin but it was twist. That’s when the accident occurred.
Sad that this had to happen but you really shouldn’t be following people.
so sexy jb
Some of you guys are fake as h*ll
Hey guys I think that it was the idiots fault for walking across the road that was busy without looking, at least Justin was the bigger guy right he did go to where the guy died and prayed for his family. Hey could you all do me a favor and follow me on twitter, I promise I’ll follow you back. @jessicabiwbwe
it wasn’t justin’s fault that the paparazzi died. it was him who was trying to get back to his car and got in an accident.
You guys are talking about the paparazzi chasing him but if Justin was across the street walking to he’s car half of you guys would have ran to him to get a autograph and a
picture and some of you would have gotten hit by cars.
A mentally stable person would not walk in the middle of an L.A. highway without paying attention for that. That’s stupid. So what the hell?
You don’t know that, people are crazy enough.
Yeah that’s crazy The paps should know now to take it slow on trying to get pics of these celebritys …They Could of ended Justin’s life because That time when justin was speeding on the highway as they were chasing him at high speeds .. justin could of easily sped out of control and gotten killed .. And mind you when your speeding over 100mph The wheel Is very light almost as it feels like its loose or something . R.i.p to the pap
justin i’m with u that i believe u never did this…
Does jb have a kik people,keep asking me its so annoying please reply back thx

TMZ is reporting the guy killed stalked and lied about Justin smoking in the car according to sources
It’s the paparazzi’s fault the police already told him to get back in his car,but didn’t listen so maybe some people will actually listen paparazzi’s celebs needs a break 2 u know.
I think papparazi should give Justin Bieber some friken space, he needs his privacy. And theres no one to blame, but the paparazzi!!!!!!!!!!
hay JB im going thruohg a lot i have cancer please for this last time can you plaese place this on you justin bieber site that you will nevere forget me my name is haylie
I bet he feels quite guilty when that man died, but its not justin’s fault, the guy lied and said that he smokes pot! thats just sad! But I do feel really sad for the man, yes he lied but that doesnt mean he should give up his life:((( LOVE JB!, R.I.P
Sorry, not gonna happen. If they were gonna stop, they would have stopped when Princess Diana died, 15 years ago. They didn’t. Quite honestly, I like paparazzi deep down. We get our pics and information, provided it isn’t lies, from them. What I don’t like is when they ride celebs’ ass and make life hell for them. The fact that just about all paps do that really masks my like for them. But I still feel bad that Chris is dead, even if my like for him is masked by what he did. Still shouldn’t have walked out on a highway in L.A. without paying attention, but whatever. Anyway, it’s not gonna happen, even though it really should.
