Justin Bieber may have collected a ton of new fans, and alienated several, hundred thousand on South Beach.
According to Alex Kennedy of Basketball Insiders, Biebers late push to his fans helped get Kyle Lowry the starting nod in the All Star game over Dwyane Wade of the Heat.
Justin Bieber encouraged his fans to vote for Kyle Lowry, and he got a HUGE push. He starts over Dwyane Wade. This isn't a joke, by the way.
