Justin Bieber can’t be
bought! The singer turned down a $5 million offer to perform at an event
during the Republican National Convention, but apparently turned it
down after his longtime manager Scooter Braun threatened to quit and NBA
star LeBron James told the singer to say no, reports TMZ.
Sources at CAA, which is the talent agency that reps the Biebs, tell the
site that a rep for the RNC contacted Justin’s people to see if the
Canadian superstar would perform a 45 minute set at a venue near Ohio’s
Quicken Loans Arena, where the Convention was held.
The site claims that the promoter for the event told Justin’s peeps that
the event was "not political" and JB was neither endorsing Trump nor
the GOP by performing.
However, according to the proposed contract, Biebs’ $5 million payday
was bankrolled by GOP donors.
Apparently, the money was also to be paid "up front" -- so he’d be paid
before he even performed and the donors would cover any production
expenses.
Sounds like a sweet deal — if it wasn’t being paid for by Donald Trump!
Apparently, this gig would have been Justin’s biggest payday, and he
seriously considered doing it — because he’s Canadian and doesn’t vote
here, and because the check was so big.
However, Justin’s trusted manager Scooter Braun, is a big time Hillary
Clinton supporter and even held a fundraiser for Hil at his L.A. home
last year and he had some major problems with his client doing the gig,
and so did CAA. Both Scooter and the agency felt that despite the
promoter saying that the event was not political, that doing it was "100
percent political," according to TMZ.
Apparently Scooter didn’t give a flat out no at first, and suggested
putting “Black Lives Matter” banners up at the venue, but they were told
that they could not do that. The donors would only accept banners that
read "All Lives Matter." The donors also did not want JB to say anything
bad about Trump or the GOP during his performance.
TMZ claims Scooter told Justin that doing the show was up to him but
that out of principle, he would not be able to represent the singer if
he did it since he felt that the GOP was using him as a tool.
Apparently, in an attempt to get Bieber to perform, the promoter told
Scooter that LeBron James was also going to attend an event in
Cleveland, without taking a political stand. Biebs' people got a hold of
LeBron’s people who said that the NBA star would NOT be in Cleveland
for the RNC and told Justin not to go.
Obviously Justin didn’t end up doing the show — good for him! Maybe
