Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate wants Justin Bieber to remove the graffiti street-art he has left on the wall of a hotel in the south-east Queensland city, Australia.
According to the Guardian, The Gold Coast City Council is ordering the hotel to paint over a prized piece of graffiti by Justin. News of the order came minutes after the QT Hotel gushed about Justin’s decision to paint one of its walls when he stayed there earlier this week.
The hotel said:
Justin Bieber paint a piece of art in appreciation of his stay. This piece of art is now available to be viewed by fans of the artist and we believe that it is a wonderful addition to the colourful Gold Coast arts scene.

But it won’t be for long. Mayor Tom Tate says the council will be ordering the hotel to get rid of the graffiti Justin and his entourage painted on an external wall.
A council spokesman told AAP:
It might be on private land but it’s in prominent public view. The mayor will be contacting our compliance officers today to have a notice issued to the hotel to clean it up.
Earlier, the mayor said Justin should return to clean up his mess. He even suggested Justin should perform free at an upcoming Christmas carols event to show the community he’s truly sorry.
Mayor Tom Tait said:
The last thing we want is to have graffiti glorified and more young people thinking its a cool thing to do.
I know he’s got beautiful eyes. I’ve got some goggles for him, and some gloves because I know he doesn’t want to get his hands dirty.
Just come and clean it up and we’ll be happy with you. Alternatively come and sing at our mayoral Christmas carols on the 7th of December for an hour and I’ll let you go.
He’s admitted to it. He’s gone onto his Twitter site and uploaded the shots. It’s disrespectful to be doing graffiti, but to boast about it on social media is just taking it to another level.
I knew this was going to create some drama. Justin should probably go and sing a christmas carol ;)
