FUSE TV - Justin Bieber Caught Smoking Pot?

Justin Bieber’s 2013 is starting out with a puff. Just days after a paparazzo was killed trying to take pictures of the Biebs' Ferrari, photos of the star allegedly smoking a blunt at a Newport Beach hotel on January 2 have surfaced online. Check 'em out at TMZ.

Bieber vaguely responded to the photos' release with a tweet:"Everyday growing and learning. trying to be better. u get knocked down, u get up," he wrote last night. "Back on tour tomorrow. ready to see u all smile. time to do what im supposed to be doing. performing. #BELIEVEtour."

He later added: "like i said...2013...new challenges. new doubters...Im ready. We are ready. see u all tomorrow and everyday after that. #BELIEVEtour."
