The outspoken former Nickelodeon star, Drake Bell has criticized Justin Bieber again – and now it’s involving Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande & One Direction.
Drake Bell is known for voicing his distaste for Justin on Twitter. While the initiative failed and his outspoken nature has turned him into the constant target of Beliebers, Drake isn’t backing down from this fight.
Drake told BuzzFeed April 1st:
There’s just a lot of really young, entitled people. I don’t think a lot of these young people have to work very hard. They’re found on YouTube and, BOOM!!.. thrown into the studio so they think they can get anything they want.
Ariana Grande is a billionaire before she’s been an artist. You have to work to be able to appreciate what you have, and what work did she ever have to do in her life? I can’t stand that!
With a lot of the pop stars, there’s this idea of “Are you in our clique? Are you a Direction-er or are you a Belieber? Oh, you’re not in our gang? Then you’re not cool and you need to go in a hole and die”. I don’t understand it.
And what’s worse is artists like Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber don’t come out and say, “I love having you as my fans, but you shouldn’t be acting this way.” They just eat it all up, and I think it’s repulsive.
If I catch one of my fans saying something improper, a gay slur or any derogatory term, I instantly tweet directly at them and say, “This isn’t how we do it”.
Lady Gaga, who says she’s so anti-bullying, was on [Howard Stern’s SiriusXM show] and Howard read all of these awful, awful tweets her fans had been sending him, [and] asked how she responded to her fans doing the exact antithesis of what she stands for. She said, “You have to understand, Howard, it comes from a place of love. They don’t want to see me get hurt.”
I couldn’t believe she didn’t take a second to address her fans and say how disgusted she was they’d do something like that. But none of them do that.
Justin Bieber just tweets, “Yeah, Beliebers, go hard!!” when they’re attacking somebody. Ariana Grande’s fans told Perez Hilton that he and his son needed to die and get cancer, and she just fed it. It’s disgusting.
We didn’t sign up to be role models, but we are.
Artists like Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga have more sway over popular minds than a politician. They could get on a pedestal and say, “This is how you should treat people”, but instead Bieber’s going around telling kids that as long as you have enough money and swag, you can do whatever you want. Instead of working to change the world, [he’s saying,] “Work to get as much money and power as possible because then you can do whatever you want and no one can say anything to you.”
I just think that’s a gross, awful, terrible message.
What the hell is Drake Bell talking about! How can you tell someone to be a better person if you keep bashing others left and right. Doesn’t sound like he is a better person himself. Actually quite immature about the situation. He both started the fight and when it all simmered down and the situation slowly went away, he brings it up again for more attention. Drake Bell just sounds like he know nothing about the message Justin is trying to spread. I have never heard Justin say any of the things Drake is claming, that you need sway or whatever instead, I have read and seen tweets by Justin, encouring people to love each other and help change the world by haleping out. Justin has done so much for the world, but everyone looks at the bad stuff!! He doesn’t tell kids that, he tells us to follow our dreams and give back so before you make a comment like that make sure you know the facts. Maybe he should consider being a better person himself but goving people credit when it's due and not just aim at dissing and bashing them all the time just to get attention.
