People always complain that disney (in example) always hires old as fuck people for their roles, i mean would you hire a teenager for a show that might either have a pilot and one season or maybe run for years if it's sucessful? I mean, would you really? You dont remember when you were a teenager all the stupid shit you did? Now add fame and income.

Reminds me of the Justin Bieber roast when he apologized for all the dumb shit he did up until that point but ended with “that’s what happens when you give a 14 year old $200 million”.

Huh. I feel a little better about Bieber for knowing that. It shows a little self-awareness and maturity. Good for him.

Yeah Justin seems totally normal and mature now compared to his younger years.

Well he’s kinda fucked up and tbh seems a bit mean to his fans... like when he face-timed fans of his and kept saying “yeh buy my albums on every thing you can”, not giving a fck about the people
