Remember this masterpiece that Justin painted on a graffiti wall in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil yesterday? You can see it below. It’s the red one right in the middle. Cute ain’t it?
These were the pictures seen all around the world this past few days. Justin covering himself with a bed sheet to shield from the paparazzi as his bodyguards escort him to his car in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. All the media outlets focused on the tattoos on his left arm to prove it was indeed Justin under there.
As a fan since the very beginning it was kinda confusing to be honest. My heart felt heavy. In a way it was hard to accept that the JB we’ve all grown to love as a 15 year old boy is now turning into an adult.
But the situation really didn’t make any sense because he of all people knows he would be photographed everywhere he goes. If he ever wanted anything there are always more private ways to get it. So how could Justin make such a mistake?
Websites like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram are huge on the internet and Justin is no stranger to such social media websites. He’s currently the most followed person on Instagram and second on Twitter. As I can remember it, Justin was the first real big celebrity to embrace Instagram and his promotion of it made Instagram an instant success.

So it’s no surprise that he has teamed up with a new social media network that’s about to launch.
According to Fortune, Justin has invested $1.1 million in a new social network called Shots of Me, created by the company RockLive. CEO John Shahidi said that JB tested the company’s mobile games and provided feedback, but that Shots of Me really grabbed his attention, especially after he was told that Shots of Me will be a social media network made especially for teens. Good timing because it’s been reported that teens are using Facebook less nowadays.
Maybe his friendship with Floyd Mayweather might have something to do with his new investment as Mayweather is also an investor in the company. But Mayweather would not have the influence that someone like Justin would on a site like this so it would be a win-win situation for both the company and Justin.
Hey if Instagram could sell for $1 billion dollars (to Facebook) in just a couple of years of business then maybe an investment in Shots of Me isn’t such a bad idea for JB after all.
Justin just posted this on Twitter. Prepare for a short film about his new perfume The Key on Saturday Nov 23rd on his Youtube channel. Woop woop!
