Conservatives attempted to bribe Justin Bieber into performing for them at a Republican event during their national convention in Cleveland. It turns out that Justin wasn’t enough of a “Belieber†in Republican politics, though, because he ended up handing them a humiliating defeat.
The details of this are incredible. Bieber was promised a $5 million payday for the show, which would be paid up front. ALL of the production costs would be covered for him as well. It was essentially $5 million in free money for a single night.
This would have been the biggest single payday ever for Bieber, or for most other performers for that matter. The cost was going to be funded totally by “Republican donors,†which means anyone from China to the Koch Brothers.
