CANADA / HOLLAND / HUMOR : 15 April UPDATE: Some Claim Bieber Comment Insults Anne Frank's Memory; Internet Mocks Justin And Beliebers.
Teen singing idol Justin Bieber, 19...visiting Anne Frank's Amsterdam museum/home where she hid for 2 years from Nazis...has upset some...by writing that the famous Jewish girl who eventually perished in a death camp at age 15...would have been his fan and follower...aka...a 'bielieber'.
He added that she was...'a great girl.'
Social media went wild...calling Bieber's written comment in the museum's guestbook... 'dumb and crass'...'self-serving'...'tasteless'...and 'immature.'
But Anne Frank House officials authenticated...and defended Bieber's comment.
