1. Justin Bieber allegedly groped a fan at a Miami meet-and-greet

Over the past few years, we've watched Justin Bieber grow up before our very eyes — and if a recent picture that looks a lot like Bieber groping a fan is any indication, we've officially reached the awkward teenage years. The photo, which was taken at a meet-and-greet in Miami, seems to show Bieber groping a fan while kissing her on the cheek — but according to E! Online, the "grope" may have been overblown. "IM DYING HAHAHAHHAHA IT LOOKS LIKE JUSTIN'S TOUCHING MY BOOB IN THE PICTURE AHAHAHAHHA" tweeted the aforementioned fan — bluntly but accurately — under the handle @JocelynnBieber. The superfan went on to defend Justin's honor, tweeting, "I know what happened & Justin does too." The rest of us will have to decide for ourselves whether we beliebe her.
