That’s why everybody’s here. Don’t worry about it, he’s a sweetheart.’ So I walked over there and I said, ‘Excuse me.’ And he said, ‘I’ve already taken a billion pictures today, Okay!’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, but she’s the only 16 year-old at the party.’ I only got the ‘Yeah but’ out and he said, ‘A billion!’ And he walked way and totally snubbed my sister. She looks at me on the verge of tears and she goes, ‘I’m no longer a Belieber.’ Yeah, I don’t think I’d want to hang out with him. I’m not a Belieber. I was, but I am not anymore.”
