What on earth is Justin Bieber’s mom doing?

By Alexandra Heilbron on March 17, 2011 | 31 Comments


When the wax figure of her son was revealed this week in London at Madame Tussauds, Justin Bieber‘s mother, Pattie Mallette, was photographed doing extremly odd things to/near the statue. We’re not sure exactly what she’s doing in the second photo, but in the first, it appears that she and Justin and examining the figure’s crotch. Justin actually seems to be patting it down while his mother examines it from knee level. Strange. What are they doing? Anyone have any suggestions?

    That’s his mom? She looks young enough to be a fan. It’s kind of disturbing that he’s feeling a mannequin’s crotch though.

    MILF! MILF! MILF! I want to meet Justin so I could meet his mother!

    Well the second picture she’s obviously standing up. But I don’t why she had a need to kneel down where she did.

  4. Missy • March 17, 2011 @ 10:01 AM

    She was 18 when she had Justin and he’s 17 now.
    The second pic she’s standing up. The first pic she’s probably making sure his zipper is done up. He’s had a couple incidents lately lol

    You guys are smart, I wouldn’t have guessed she was standing up. I never put my hand on my ass when I stand up, lol! Did anyone notice how weird his head is shaped (second picture). It sticks way out at the back. I guess that wasn’t noticeable before when his hair was longer.

    Looks to me like they are trying to address an issue concerning the positioning of the mannequin’s hand…as far as the hair goes, the top of the mannequin’s head shows in the second pic, making Justin’s head shape appear kinda odd…lol

  7. Diane • March 17, 2011 @ 9:58 AM

    Amanda if you really look at the picture its the mannequin’s head also justin has a normal head (LOL)and it does look like their fixing the mannequin’s hand also you never know what mom and son are doing (LOL)

    Pictures taken at just the wrong (or should I say hilariously right) moment.

  9. john • March 17, 2011 @ 11:14 AM

    On the first one caption should read:MOM!You know i hang to the left!

  10. lilly • March 17, 2011 @ 12:20 PM

    the picture must of got caught at the wrong moment but still that is still kinda weird! don’t u think????

  11. Sol • March 17, 2011 @ 2:16 PM

    Wow, you guys should stick to covering Carlos Esteves – this is the most retarded non-story I’ve ever seen. What’s she doing? GASP…she’s…standing up…and…possibly has some back trouble from the way she’s supporting herself with her hand on her upper buttocks/hip. CRAAAZY – I guess she’s not as young as she looks. C’mon guys, stick to your usual hard-hitting journalism (snicker).

  12. Alex • March 17, 2011 @ 2:53 PM

    I bet his mom sure knows how to use her head.

  13. Jessesue • March 17, 2011 @ 3:35 PM

    My perception is his mom is brushing off her bottom from kneeling down with her shoes touching her butt. Just a lucky shot by the photographer to make it controversial. They are obviously touching the pocket not the front. Perhaps to see if they did a real hand? Everyone should get their minds out of the gutter. Justin’s mom is a decent person, as we from Stratford know. Leave her be.

  14. carmen • March 17, 2011 @ 3:36 PM

    Picture take at wrong time. Why is justin’s mom holding her buttocks. i luv both of them no harm no foul

  15. ernybear • March 17, 2011 @ 5:00 PM

    seriously? you don’t have anything better to report on? Poor Justin’s mom… and poor Justin… leave the kid alone.

  16. Lola • March 17, 2011 @ 5:03 PM

    Personally, I find this picture rather funny. As Justin is examining the wax figure’s crotch “Hmmm.. I wonder if he has a bigger “package” than I do?”

  17. Jamie • March 17, 2011 @ 5:42 PM

    They’re from Stratford? That sure explains it all.

  18. Tartanluvr • March 17, 2011 @ 6:12 PM

    I am a Canadian, and as yet i can not understand the hoopla over Justin the Beav. What has he really done to merit a wax job.

  19. Tartanluvr • March 17, 2011 @ 6:18 PM

    And men, never mind the mom, Beav might have been checking that it was correct in the pants, Ladies do you see the size of he’s feet. LOL

  20. Clyde • March 17, 2011 @ 9:14 PM

    The first pic: he is checking, because the sculpter thot it was bigger and bieb wanted to know how big he is supposed to be. He mom, well maybe she is just checking to so that his package is right, and that she is the only one that see it.

  21. Clyde • March 17, 2011 @ 9:17 PM

    will wait to see just how the bieb explains this on Letterman..why are you checking yourself out. HHHmmmm

  22. mfh • March 17, 2011 @ 10:51 PM

    Looks okay to me it just seem like she was bending down someone from behind told her to pull up her pants, or she was conscious enough to keep her rare covered and she was just pulling up her pants while she was standing up unlike some other girls and women.
    & Justin head is fine the top part is part of his wax Idol.

  23. RB • March 17, 2011 @ 10:53 PM

    Ok, judgemental ppl: they come from Stratford, ON…which isn’t far from Ptbo in south-eastern ON where I live…and living in subsidized housing (which Oprah def. fed off of)….i am willing to bet she had the child as a teen, which is why she looks so young….the teen pregnancy rate here in s.e. ON is really high…..but wtf cares anyways…both these pictures just look WRONG without captions to state what was really going on at that time…just goes to show that a picture has a 1000 words

  24. Terry • March 17, 2011 @ 11:02 PM

    I agree with Tartanluvr! Why would Bieb the Dweeb merit a wax figure? He’s about as unremarkable as any other child can be. Really can’t stand this one.

  25. mfh • March 17, 2011 @ 11:05 PM

    I live in Ont,it’s evident she’s a young mother but she’s very strict on him, he gets his phone taken away when she think he’s getting out of hand & all that. Pictures worth 10.000.000.00. surely gives relaxed minds a challenge, that’s good once in a while that’s what I do when I go to the art gallery/ show, also I have I picture I’ve been trying to figure out for the past 20yrs myself the painter is dead.

  26. Patrica • March 18, 2011 @ 2:39 AM

    Good Grief leave them alone already. The kid is very talented and his mom and grandparents are very hands on even with his sudden big celebrity. He has terrific people around him giving him good advice, so I think he will be ok. His label is keeping him on the straight and narrow. At the end of the day he is still a teenager trying to find his way in the world and trying to be the good kid everyone around him wants him to be. I think he is doing a great job and I commend his family for being still so hands on (no pun intended) and that can’t be easy with him being as large a celebrity as he has become. Keep up the good work Justin, you have nothing but great things in your future.

  27. Tartanluvr • March 18, 2011 @ 8:16 AM

    give the spoiled brat time. I heard some of the bad press he’s gotten from Australia, and talk shows on his attidute to other people. This is not the US of A. He is no better then a lot of young want a beeeees. He is only in the lime light, from good PRing from him handlers. What an ugly word.

  28. Susanne • March 19, 2011 @ 1:35 AM

    Amanda, look again at Justin’s head, it’s not his real head that sticks out, it’s the wax figure of Justin’s head,that you see. DAAAAAAA

  29. Thibz • March 19, 2011 @ 10:46 AM

    he will be like the backstreet boys, Nsync’s and 98 degrees of yesterday. Everyone gets tire of it and they fade away unless your Justin Timberlake lol

  30. Jessy • March 19, 2011 @ 11:47 AM

    I agree with the people that said in the first pic it looks as though they are adjusting the hand in his pocket. And she is probably posing for the pic, or on her way standing up. TOTALLY agree with the person who said this is the most non-story. HEY LOOK IT’S SOMEONE FAMOUS AND THEY AREN’T DOING ANYTHING!!

  31. Angie • March 19, 2011 @ 6:50 PM

    If it’s a wax figure then how can anything be adjusted? Is it all set in wax? Anyway, stop trying to make it seem like his mom is being inapprpropriate, you pervs.

    🙂
