Sources claim the 19-year-runing is risking his career by behaving like a brat, reported Daily Star.

Staff at Def Jam Recordings have made several attempts to confront him about his "arrogant" attitude. "Justin biber doesn't seem to care and does whatever he wants.

He doesn't listen to anyone. He's surrounded by hangers-on who say 'yes' to anything he wants," said an insider. The superstar's behaviour has raised concerns he will follow the same path as former teen star Spears, 31.

Spears' out-of-control behaviour ended with her being forced into a psychiatric ward and losing custody of her children. The Baby hitmaker is said to be stressed out over his on-off relationship with pop star Selena Gomez, 20.

"She's been partying without him. It drives him crazy," said a source. Bieber has been under pressure recently.

Justin Bieber Hopes Photog’s Death Stops Dangerous Chases

Justin Bieber hopes that the death of a paparazzo who was trying to photograph his car will slow the snapping masses’ relentless pursuit of him.

“While I was not present nor directly involved with this tragic accident, my thoughts and prayers are with the family of the victim,” the pop star said in a statement released by his spokesperson. The paparazzo, who hasn’t been named by authorities, was hit by oncoming traffic in Los Angeles Tuesday while taking pictures of Bieber’s white Ferrari. Bieber wasn’t in the car at the time.

“Hopefully this tragedy will finally inspire meaningful legislation and whatever other necessary steps to protect the lives and safety of celebrities, police officers, innocent public bystanders, and the photographers themselves,” Bieber added.

Paparazzi have had many dangerous run-ins with Bieber, including a high-speed chase in July that led to the arrest of a photographer. At the time, Los Angeles City Councilman Dennis Zine said Bieber was to blame and deserved to be arrested. “As I watched, I was anticipating a crash,” Zine told ABC News. “It was chaos. Total willful disregard for people on the roadway.”

Grisly Justin Bieber Murder Plot Foiled, Police Say

Justin Bieber was the target of a grisly murder plot hatched by a convicted killer imprisoned in New Mexico, police told ABC News today.

Dana Martin, 45, an inmate at the Southern New Mexico Corrections Facility, is accused of masterminding the plan, which called for castrating Bieber and his bodyguard in New York, and two unnamed victims in Vermont, before strangling them, according to a New Mexico State Police affidavit.

Martin, who was sentenced to 978 years in jail for rape and murder in 2000, had an image of Bieber tattooed on his leg and plotted to kill him after his attempts to contact the 18-year-old pop star failed, according to the affidavit, which also alleged that he orchestrated the plot to achieve notoriety.

Former inmate Mark Staake and his nephew, Tanner Ruane, set off for Vermont on Nov. 14 to carry out the plan, intending to continue on to New York, according to the affidavit. They intended to catch Bieber between his Nov. 28 and 29 Madison Square Garden concerts.

The three now stand accused of two counts each of conspiracy to commit murder and two counts each of conspiracy to commit aggravated battery, according to Lt. Robert McDonald of the New Mexico State Police. New Mexico is awaiting Staake and Ruane’s extraditions from the East Coast. McDonald did not know whether they had retained legal representation.

Martin wanted Ruane to attack the victims with Fiskars “Durasharp” gardening clippers, and offered to pay Ruane $2,500 for each testicle he got, the affidavit alleged.

It added that Martin wanted the intended victims strangled with a paisley necktie, just as Martin had done in a prior crime.

He referred to the murders as “the whole putting down of the ‘dogs,’” the affidavit said.

Staake, who was released in October after serving time for burglary, and Ruane left Albuquerque for Vermont, where they had plotted to kill the two unidentified victims. However, before committing any killings, the pair missed a highway exit in Vermont near the border crossing into Canada and got stopped by a border patrol agent, according to the affidavit. Staake was arrested in Vermont on outstanding warrants.

Ruane was released, but New York State Police later arrested him after officials eavesdropped on a phone call in which Ruane and Martin allegedly made references to the murder plots, the affidavit said.

The car in which Ruane and Staake were stopped contained pruning shears.

When prison authorities confronted Martin, he allegedly detailed the plan and gave them a hand-drawn map of where Ruane and Staake had traveled.

A representative for Bieber released this statement to ABC News: “We take every precaution to protect and ensure the safety of Justin and his fans.”
