Just when you thought that the Beliebers would be the ones who would sit behind their computers and hit the Grammy Twitter page with death threats for snubbing their asexual pop idol, Bieber's manager Scooter Braun has beat them to the punch.
Braun, who congratulated Carly Rae Jepsen, who he also manages for her nomination for her annoying ass single Call Me Maybe aired out his frustration to Twitter: “This time there wont be any wise words, no excuses, I just plain DISAGREE. The kid deserved it. Grammy board u blew it on this one.”
He continued, “The hardest thing to do is transition, keep the train moving. the kid delivered. Huge succesful album, sold out tour, and won people over… this time he deserved to be recognized and I dont really have any kind nice positive things to say about a decision I dont agree with.”
To be fair Braun did congratulate all those who were nominated:.“So to all those nominated…you do deserve it. You worked hard and u earned it. Just feel like so did JB,” tweeted the manager.
He added, “To his fans…looks like we get to stay the underdog a little longer. #BRINGIT.”
Later, Braun wrote, “life is long, with many ups and downs, but we get to keep going, everyday brings a new opportunity. NOTHING GREAT EVER CAME EASY.”
I think the reason why The Grammy's snubbed JB is because they don't look at him as a true artist. Yes he plays a bunch of instruments, but I guess he is still looked at as some squeaky clean manufactured pop star. Personally I don't think Carly should have been nominated off of one song that was overplayed on the radio, but it's not my decision to make on who is nominated. The Grammy's are the Oscars of the music business. Just like you won't see Transformers get nominated for Best Picture just because it made a shitload of money at the box office, you can't expect to think because Justin has 45 million people following him on Twitter and he sells out arenas all over the world that he deserves to get a Grammy. And since Scooter is trying to turn JB into this generation's Justin Timberlake, maybe he needs to hook him up with Timbaland and make sure his next album becomes the next FutureSex/LoveSounds.
