Twitter Reacts to Justin Bieber's Predictably Dramatic Fainting Spell
Have you heard? Justin Bieber fainted backstage in London. And then, depending on your news source, he was rushed to hospital and either admitted or given a bed where he could show off his abs on Instagram.
It could've been something serious. After Bieber didn't emerge from backstage, Scooter Braun told the crowd, "Justin got very light of breath; the whole show he has been complaining." Bieber had fainted backstage and took a 20-minute break while sipping on some oxygen. Apparently, doctors at this point determined that this was no life-threatening attack, and Bieber, being the champ he is, finished the show at London's massive O2 arena, before heading to the hospital.
Then the Internet flipped out. The Associated Press sent breaking news alerts to people's smartphones. TMZ busted out its biggest headline font. Twitter came up with a new hashtag, #JustinTakeABreak. And Bieber, of course, took off his shirt. At the time of this writing the latest update about his condition comes in the form a tweet:
getting better. thanks for everyone pulling me thru tonight. best fans in the world. figuring out what happened. thanks for the love
