Now that I think about it, I think I’ll side with Patrick Carney after all, and here is why…

When TMZ caught up with Patrick Carney, the Black Keys drummer, and asked him about Justin Bieber not attending the Grammy’s, Patrick responded with this, “I dunno, he’s rich, right? Grammys are for, like, music, not for money. . . . He’s making a lot of money. He should be happy.”

It angered a lot of Bieber fans (better known as Beliebers). Later Justin replied to him by saying he needs to be slapped around, with a “hahaha”, at the end of the sentence. It wasn’t really a threat, he was just having fun and joking around himself, that explains why he put the “hahaha”, at the end of it, so people wouldn’t take it serious. Sure enough, the Beliebers are hating on Patrick Carney, calling him the bully. They saw what Patrick said about Justin Bieber not being at the Grammy’s, was an attack.
What Patrick means by his comment, was that he wasn’t trying to imply that Justin didn’t deserve to be there at the Grammy’s. What Patrick was originally saying, was that Justin Bieber is too rich enough that people shouldn’t care whether or not he should be there. That’s what he meant by “he should be happy”. What Patrick said, really wasn’t an attack or a bash. It wasn’t threatening or bullying at all. He tried not to make it sound hateful. It was just an honest opinion.
Patrick really doesn’t have anything personal against Justin himself or the Beliebers. Look at Patrick’s twitter page. While Patrick has been replying to the Beliebers attacking him, Patrick tries his best to make his responses to them not so hateful, so he tries to make his responses humorous, and he also puts sad faces to their tweets. Patrick is not bullying the Beliebers at all, he’s just having fun and joking around with them. Patrick seems amazed at the kind of response he’s getting from the Beliebers. I can’t blame him. If I was in that situation, I would love it too if so many Beliebers were attacking me and hating on me. It would be awesome! This is how Patrick is feeling. He becomes addicted to it.
I’m sure Patrick is grown up enough and I’m sure he’s professional acting in the music business, it’s just that the paparazzi thing got way out of hand.
I realize, I’m doing a little flip flopping here, but after thinking about it here, Patrick do no wrong. The TMZ website, asked him a question, he answered it, and sure enough, the internet is all over it. That’s how the media, the internet and today’s industry works. Welcome to the world of fame, Patrick and Dan.
