Qantas crew brings 'child' rock star Justin Bieber back 'Down to Earth'

I just found out that Canadian child pop star Justin Bieber was scolded like a child on board a Qantas flight yesterday for leaving his seat while the aircraft was taxing in preparation for takeoff.

According to witnesses, the 17-year-old teen idol and his bodyguard left their business class seats to talk to members of their entourage back in coach as the plane readied for a flight from Sydney to Melbourne, despite the fact the seat belt sign was on.

Bieber is currently touring Down Under.

The cabin crew jumped to their feet and sternly ordered the pair back to their seats.

Witnesses told an Australian newspaper that one flight attendant shouted at Bieber; accusing him of being a “security risk.” She then escorted him back to his seat and told him: “if you want to act like a child, then I’ll treat you like a child.”

Good job Qantas has not introduced mandatory martial arts training for their flight attendants like I reported yesterday Hong Kong Airlines has done for their crews.

It’s nice to see, as one of Bieber’s song titles suggests, that even mega stars can be brought “Down to Earth” by air crews.
