Justin Bieber deportation petition reaches 100,000 signatures

An online petition requesting Justin Bieber’s expulsion from the US attained 100,000 signatures.

The petition was filed on a White House website by a member of the public.

The US president has no power to order an individual’s deportation, and it is unclear whether the White House will respond to the petition.

Justin Bieber, 19, has had several run-ins with police over the past year.

In the early hours of last Thursday, the singer was arrested in Miami Beach after a police officer pulled him over on suspicion of racing a hired yellow Lamborghini on a public street.

Suspecting he was intoxicated, the officer arrested him. Justin Bieber was also charged with resisting arrest and driving on an expired license.

He was later released on bail of $2,500.

Earlier in January, police in California searched Justin Bieber’s home after he allegedly threw eggs at his neighbor’s house, causing thousands of dollars in damage.

Justin Bieber’s manager tweeted on Wednesday evening asking people “to be kind and hope for the best in people. Not assume the worst. Thanks”.
