Justin Bieber got a rude reception in Australia last week when he was bombarded with half a dozen eggs during a concert in Sydney, said the New York Daily News. The teen heartthrob danced around most of the projectiles to avoid being pelted. The incident aroused the ire of several of Bieber’s 9 million fans on Twitter, who posted hundreds of threats aimed at the egg-throwing culprits. “Dear person who threw eggs @justinbieber in Sydney,” wrote one fan. “You now have #9millionbeliebers after you. Be afraid! We go harder than hard!”
