Bieber Fever

Yesterday I posted that nothing has happened to me lately.  That was a total lie.  I forgot (of course) about when I caught Bieber Fever.  Let me remind you that I am the mom of two small boys so I really had no clue about who this Bieber kid even was. 

Last Wednesday I was sitting in my monthly book club meeting when the following text conversation occurred between myself and one of my best friends:

BF:OK I need your help!!!
ME: What do you need
BF: Please please please come with me to a movie tomorrow night after your babies go to sleep.  I will buy your ticket.  Plllleeeeeaaaassssseeeeeeee
ME:OK, what movie and what time
BF: Yeah yeah, you said you were going no matter what you said OK!! No take backs, OK!
ME: OK
BF: Great, I think I might keep the movie a surprise.  It starts at 11:50 but we will need to be there by 10:30
ME: OK I am actually really excited this will be fun

20 minutes later...

BF: Yeah it will be fun.  Oh and we are taking six 11 year olds

WHAT!  Being the internet guru that I am (because looking up movie times takes a genius) I got online to find out what movies were opening that weekend and what do I see: Never Say Never!  I immediately text her back and tell her that I am not going to see a Justin Bieber movie.  Then she reminded me that I promised.  Alright, alright I promised and she is my friend and it did give me an excuse to get out of the house.  Of course I will go as long as I can sit in the back of the theater and drink the beer that I am going to hide in my purse.

This premiere thing was huge they had a pre-movie party which started an hour and a half before the movie did.  We were just two of the very few parents that stayed.  Most parents dropped their kids off.  I mean these girls are only 11 and that is too young to stay at a movie by yourself.  The pre-party was hilarious.  My friend and I stood there watching these tweens/teens karaoke and have a Justin Bieber look alike contest.  I am almost 100% sure that I never acted like these girls did at that age.  No way was I that loud and obnoxious.  Wait, what, I act that way now!  Anyway, not the point.

My point of this is when I contracted Bieber Fever.  Which was in the first 5 minutes of the movie.  This kid is so adorable.  I am not saying that in a pedophile way, I am saying that in a mom way.  I would love for my boys to grow up to be like this kid.  He prays, he loves his mom, he is polite, and he has a butt load of money.  What parent would not want that?  Maybe not the fame thing though.  That part actually made me cry.  I felt sad for this awesome kid who has no teenage life.  I can see where these tween girls have fallen head over heels for this boy, but his fans are obsessed.  And that hair, come on, I would love to have soft bouncy hair like that.   There was a scene were he is flipping his hair back and forth and it had the whole theater screaming!

Anyway I am getting off track; my main point is I am interested in following this kids career and seeing how he turns out.  I am not going to be cured of this Bieber Fever anytime soon.

I forgot to mention that I did not drink any beer like I wanted to, but I did load up on Red Bull and Dr. Pepper which made me crazy!
