Justin Bieber Touring Post-Earthquake Japan

Despite reports to the contrary, Justin Bieber will be keeping his tour dates in Japan. The 17-year-old pop star, who is scheduled to perform in Tokyo and Osaka later this month, took to Twitter to shoot down rumors that his crew was refusing to accompany him to the earthquake-and-radiation-plagued island nation.
"Im def going to JAPAN!!" Bieber tweeted on Saturday, along with hashtags saying "Support Japan," "Citizen of the World" and "Make a Change."
TMZ reported last week that Bieber's manager Scooter Braun had an argument with the tour crew over whether it was safe to visit Japan. (Avril Lavigne and Slash had canceled their Japan concerts, due mainly to radiation fears.) However, according to radiation experts consulted by E! Online, there's nothing to fear in Japan's major cities: The radiation levels are back to normal after a March spike, and food is being monitored carefully. That's why the Japanese government has issued an "all clear" to artists -- including Bieber, Maroon Five and the touring company of the Metropolitan Opera -- who plan on playing in Japan's entertainment hot spots.
TMZ later reported that Bieber, famously loyal to his fans, declared that he was going to Japan -- with or without his crew. The source claimed he'd downgrade from stadiums to smaller gigs before abandoning his Japanese fans. Luckily for ticket holders, it didn't come to that!
Bieber maniacs will also be pleased to learn that charges have been dropped against Braun and Bieber for the infamous Long Island mall stampede of 2009, according to E! News. The D.A. sued Bieber's management and record label after the fan frenzy, which they blamed on inadequate crowd control. As part of Friday's settlement, Biebs will make a public service announcement for an anti-cyberbullying campaign. Wonder if he'll tell his Twitter followers to stop sending death threats to any girl he looks at twice...
