Before his recent legal troubles, a lot of people felt Justin Bieber could be the next major pop star. In actuality, he still could be, but most thought Justin Bieber would be more like Justin Timberlake and less like a gangsta rapper. But, it is what it is and the people are talking about him.
In reaction to all of the people talking about him, Justin Bieber posted a photo on Instagram of him and Michael Jackson. Taking a similar pose, Justin Bieber compared himself to the man named king of pop. However, many said he was only firing back at TMZ and not comparing himself to Michael.
The biggest musical talent ever, Michael Jackson has droves of devoted fans even five years after he died. Even though there is this contradicting story about Justin Bieber not comparing himself to Michael Jackson, the fans have spoken. Several fans took to Twitter and they laid into Bieber over this implied comparison.
