Yeah, don’t hold your breath, Beliebers. Justin Bieber, 22, hold back when the paparazzi asked if he’d be up to performing at Donald Trump’s, 70, inauguration on Jan. 20, according to TMZ. “Why are you guys asking such a stupid question,” the “Sorry” singer said, clearly annoyed that someone would ask him that.
“You ask really dumb questions,” Justin added, his mood clearly not improving as the paps continued to follow him. “Really? Really?” Well, it looks like Beliebers better hold off on booking that ticket to D.C., if they were hoping to see Justin serenade Melania Trump, 46, Ivanka Trump, 35, and the rest of the president-elect’s family.

If Justin does shoot down any offer to take part in the inauguration, it wouldn’t be the first time he turned down the Republican Party. Justin was reportedly offered $5 million to play a single event during the 2016 Republican National Convention, but turned down the massive payday after LeBron James, 31, convinced him not too. Plus, Justin’s manager, Scooter Braun, 35, reportedly backed Hillary Clinton, 69, during the campaign, and joined King James convincing Biebs to say no.
Of course, things could change, especially if Kanye West, 39, gets involved. Justin and Ye have a history of supporting each other. Kanye reaching out to Justin after Biebs’s whole “walk barefoot in public parks” episode, and Justin sent love to Kanye and Kim Kardashian, 36, after her scary robbery in Paris. If there’s someone who could convince Justin to back the president-elect, it might be Yeezy.
After all, Kanye and Donald are BFFs. Ye even met personally with the president-elect on Dec. 13 to discuss “multicultural issues,” among other things. Ye, who vocally supported Trump before his meltdown, was so energized after this meeting that he reportedly started writing a “Trump anthem” he wants to perform at the inauguration. Could Kanye talk Biebs out of his definitive answer and join in?
What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Do you want Justin to change his mind and sing or do you think he made the right decision?
