Justin Bieber Doesn’t Know What German Is

via The Daily What

Let us not be too hard on the young man. Here he was, being asked to translate difficult words like “basketball” from a foreign language by a guy with an accent. Ah, the obstacles on the road to manhood. But, fun fact: He likes basketball! Basketball. Not basketball players. So don’t go there. Basketball. Period.

    Wait a minute…

    He HAS German fans?

    • peepers says:

      Dont forget, the germans like David Hasslehoffs singing.

      • Zoinks says:

        Our parents did that, in the 80s. Everyone had bad taste in the 80s. Don’t blame us.

        • mb says:

          I don’t think he ever had German fans.

          • Third_Reign says:

            haven’t heared one of his songs yet on anything public, so i guess the Bieber Wave hasn’t sweaped over yet. All a matter of time since the Jonas one is crashing bye.

            “Bieber” is Beaver in german :P

            That kid seriously should visit school some time…

            • potato. says:

              wait what? i actually dont get what the interviewer said..
              “is german for basketball?”?
              i dont usually like bieber.. but.. i got nothing on him right now.

              • potato. says:

                yea its totally the interviwers fault..
                “justin.. uhh.. bieber. sorry. is german for basketball. true or false.” he didnt say the sentence right.

                • person says:

                  Ya, I see why he wouldn’t understand the sentence but he actually didn’t know what German meant, the interviewer even pointed to the word on the question card and Beiber still didn’t know.! lololol! ;P

                  • Amaia says:

                    The interviewer was asking if “Bieber is German for basketball – true or false”… He did ask the question right, actually. :)

          • tb says:

            i dont think he has fans. period

      • HellcityPirate says:

        No, we don’t like him. We make jokes about him because he is thinking that he is the reason for the fall of the wall. xD

        And unfortunately he has german fans -.-

      • Akhuna says:

        NO we DON’T! At least nobody I know does like that singing fail whale… I’m German and living in Germany. He just claims that he was responsible for the fall of the berlin wall by singing “Looking for Freedom”.. .which ist utterly riddiculous.

    • BieberBabe says:

      He’s just a kid. besides its cute! :) im the same age… i would have done the same thing! get a life ppl. seriously…

      • Mr Obvious says:

        When you were sixteen, you were not aware of country called Germany where they speak German? Seriously… This does not make my respect for Justin Biebers fans any better.

      • EllieWhite says:

        What you pretty much just said that when you were sixteen you didn’t know about this thing called World War II which took place for the most part in Germany, where people speak German.

        • Law says:

          “World War II which took place for the most part in Germany”???

          Maybe someone should’ve gone to history class…

          • Andrex says:

            yeah actually it did, not ALL of germany actually had a battle in it…

            • randomnerd says:

              It was mostly fought in France. And even considering his actual age (16), not the fact that he looks ten, the Berlin Wall fell years before he was born (see Akhuna’s comment above).
              Also, to Brookey J, Justine (not a typo, just a burn) actually said ‘GERMAN’, not ‘jewman’, while trying to understand the word. My guess is he watched that interview later and came up with an excuse almost as retarded as the fail in question.

          • EllieWhite says:

            Really? I generalize and get judged for it? Ya gotta love the internets. They’ll find faults with everything you say.

      • peepers says:

        Bieberbabe – you are extremely stupid, even for a child.

        • BieberBabe says:

          Peepers- you are an idiot. at least i have a life, unlike you! ;) :D

          • Lola says:

            ^she is justin bieber :P

          • moy_moy says:

            oh my god. you blithering idiot. I’m not calling you an idiot because you like bieber, or something… you’re an idiot because you’re implying that it’s normal to not know what “German” is when you’re 16.

            • Guess says:

              Normal for people who miserably failed Geography. I’m 14 and I speak German.

              • KiwiCola says:

                I’m under 14 and know EVERYTHING about WWII
                Let me just say this, when Justin hits germany, there will be riots.

                • BieberIsATard says:

                  I’m eleven and speak some German, but at least I know what it is!

                  • lephantome92 says:

                    I forget if it was when I was 7 or 8 when I learned what German is. I know that when I was 11 or 12, I learned very basic German.
                    Basically, with most languages and people groups, they’re derived from the name of their country. GERMANy and they speak GERMAN, ENGLand and they speak ENGLish, not that hard Biebs.

            • Narcil says:

              moy-moy,

              Having watched the video twice, I can understand Bieber’s confusion. His problem was not that he’d never heard of Germany, which is what everyone on this board so far seems to think. His problem was that the host posed the question exceedingly poorly. The question was, “Is Bieber german for basketball?” However, when Bieber didn’t catch it the first time and asked for the question again, the host started repeating, “German for basketball, true or false,” which is a meaningless sentence.

              While I can’t stand the kids music, you’ve got to cut him a little slack on this one.

              • Narcil says:

                Not to be apologist for Bieber, but to those of you who point out that the host showed him the paper, notice that the kid got approximately 1 second to read it and was certainly already flustered by not understanding the question for several seconds on what was probably live tv.

                I’m sorry Bieber haters, this one was the host’s fault.

                (I am by no means a Bieber fan – can’t stand his music)

                • Andrex says:

                  sorry man, he should cut his hair if he cant hear
                  and he said what is german

                • Erin says:

                  I realized the same thing and fully agree. Can’t stand that kid’s “music”, but I’ll cut him some slack here.

                  • MadaraXIII says:

                    Agreed. The Kid was confused. I still may not like him so I’ll compromise. They Both Failed. Simple as that.

                • Justsayin says:

                  Um no…i understood the question pretty well. If you can’t get it, i’m sorry but you’re pretty slow. I’ve heard questions written like how the host spoke it, and have written a few of my own in such a manner.
                  *this word* is *this other word* in*another language* is not a malformed sentence. I don’t hate bieber, but i’m not a fan. Either way, the kid messed up, and the host just had a fairly thick accent.

          • peepers says:

            BieberBabe – you don’t have a life. You’re a child, and a stupid child. You will become a stupid adult.

          • Oled says:

            Which is why you are on a site where people make fun of celebrities.
            Oh, logic, where are thee?

          • Becca says:

            No, BieberBabe, you are the true idiot.

          • JP says:

            You’re 15.
            What you consider “a life” now will merely be a facepalm when you realize at a later age that you’ve finally got one. Unless sane people kill you before you manage to get a real, actual life of course. Which might happen, as pretentious as you are (lol, it’s so cute that he doesn’t know of a major language that just about EVERYONE ELSE knows of! AND IF YOU DON’T THINK SO, YOU DON’T HAVE A LIFE, LIEK ME!!!”).

            If you need to like Justin Bieber to have a life, I’d rather be dead, k thx.

      • SewerShark says:

        Bieber Fan Fail.
        Just because you admit you are as stupid as him, does not make him smarter.

        • BieberBabe says:

          idc what you say about me. anyone could have made that mistake. you just have nothing better to do with your life except talk bad about other people. get a life.

          • JLA says:

            No. “Anyone” could NOT have made that mistake. I’d wager that at least 98% of 16-year olds are aware of the German language.

            • Fawfulster says:

              Even preppy idiotic girls in MY country (Mexico), which by the way is viewed as “just a 3rd world country”, woul’ve known what and where Germany is. Even they would point out its location on a map and its capital city.

            • Justsayin says:

              i’m 16. i prove JLA’s point.

          • SewerShark says:

            I have a life, a job and I know what German is…what about you?

          • Tudor says:

            @BieberBabe: I’m 20, I have a small business and I’m pretty sure I earn more money than your parents give you. I also have a hot girlfriend and I’m about to buy my second car. So don’t you tell me “get a life”. Take a look at yours: you’re listening to an idiot that everyone promoted because he’s a freak: he didn’t go through puberty yet and he’s proud of having a little girl’s voice. The only reason he appears everywhere is because even if people laugh at him, they still watch everything he’s in … and that means money.

            So go to school to become more open-minded and guit watching TV.

            • candoia says:

              I’m sure your “hot girlfriend” would be proud of you using her to one-up a little girl on the internet.

            • Professor Kliq says:

              Dude, it’s the old Catholic way. You castrate em’ when they’re young so their voices never crack.

            • Marcela says:

              No offense but… You can’t advice someone to be “open minded” if you call the musician they like idiot and freak (I don’t like his music and think his voice is annoying, tohugh).
              And in my book, someone who has bought two cars in 4 years (assuming you started driving at 16) and rub in people’s faces they have a small business and a hot girlfriend isn’t exactly applause worthy.
              By the way, I second candoia’s opinion

            • Chibirikku says:

              Why the hell would you buy a second car?

        • randomnerd says:

          SewerShark, that comment just made an emo kid HAPPY.

      • llamafuzz says:

        how can you be so stupid!
        Germany is a common country that you hear a lot about, even a dumb teenage girl like you should know about it.
        Geez!

      • Worm says:

        BieberBabe, you are a tool of the highet order if you think it is normal to not know of a huge country that exists in the middle of Europe; it is a country that contributed to huge parts of European history, to American history, to American economical structures, to the industrial revolution….
        I hope you never breed.

        • Dudio says:

          BieberBabe is most likely a 46 – year old hermaphrodite who has fantasies regarding dressing as a 16 year old girl and wettin’ the bed with Justin Bieber. Which is totally fine, as long as he doesn’t pursue his dreams.
          And to BieberBabe, you are not innocent either. Peds acting as 16-year old girls give Teenage girls in general a bad name. There are a few bad teenage girls out there, which I subcategorize as “Biebers,” “Twilighters,” and “Other.” But please, don’t make your fellow humans be ashamed of you.
          And moreover, don’t confuse your fantasies with yourself when mailing in your Census.

        • Alias says:

          Exactly. Germany is today one of our strongest allies!

      • Florian says:

        ehm yea it’s okay dont to know germany at the age of 10.. but you shouldn’t forget, that justin bieber is 15 or 16 (idk/c) and just looks like he’s 10

      • Mr Dimmeh says:

        One word…

        Fail…

        P.S Epic Fail

      • Trojan Man says:

        Damn that is a Grade A school you go to…

      • skrumpadoochus says:

        im twelve and i can speak German and understand that guys accent without having to hardly listen so really the kid has no excuse if you ask me. and the whole get a life ppl thing was kinda stupid to say because you imply that the people on here have no lives because they are on here but you too are on roflrazzi.

      • OMFG says:

        hahahahahahah ur 10??

    • dcagg says:

      Wow. What a moron!

    • Mike2S says:

      I’m from German Speaking part of Switzerland (This is not Sweden Pippi Longstocking=Sweden Heidi=Switzerland (I mean the novel character not the Model Heidi Klum)). And here Justin Bieber is rather unknown. Here the teens scream for Tokio Hotel. (Bad in other way)

      • fnord says:

        Yeah. “There go all of his german fans” = all two of them

      • Worm says:

        YAY!!!! I have been saved from both of them! I only know them both by name from reading news articles, etc, but have never heard their music. Let’s give it up for Ireland * la la la la*

    • ch says:

      he does i live in switzerland, i know people who like him.
      i’m guessing if he has swiss fans he has german fans :(

    • Cryzz says:

      I say hardly. I live in Germany and I would never have heard of that… guy(?) if it weren’t for roflrazzi. What does he do? Some actor in a new sitcom?

    • Xevailo says:

      Nope. I am from germany, and I can say he doesn’t. Girls here are just still drooling for sparkling vampires. It’s your decision if this is better or worse…

    • Eggroll-Enthusiast says:

      Wait a minute- he has fans?!

  2. SilverMoon says:

    “We don’t say that in Amarica.” OMG, he so stupid!!!

    • Josey says:

      And he’s Canadian. Go figure.

      • SilverMoon says:

        he is?

        • jonmonroy says:

          well canada is in america am i right? so that he would have right.

          • GoF says:

            … america =/= canada

            • cyb says:

              actually USA=/= canada. America is a continent. actually it’s even two continents.

              • Narcil says:

                That’s true, but in the common vernacular one is usually referring the U.S.A. when one says “America.” At least in the U.S.A. that’s true; I obviously can’t speak for Europeans. Generally, people talk about the continent of North America if they intend to include Canada or Mexico.

      • Nyxie says:

        Maybe that’s why Canadians have a good reputation – they’re required to pretend to be American when they do something stupid.

        • Pyueng says:

          disguise WIN !!!

        • lollercoaster says:

          you know AMERICA and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA are two different things right? America involves all the Americas (including North America, South America, and Central America) and the United States OF America is just a country in North America. It’s as if you were saying you live in America instead of Canada, or Brazil.

          • moy_moy says:

            that may be true, but I rarely hear the word “America” being used to refer to all the Americas. And I highly doubt that beiber is intelligent enough to use the word in that sense.

          • clipsie says:

            Yet, generally when you refer to all of the Americas, it is pluralized and stated as The Americas. American is the term for people who live in the US of A, and thus should only normally be used for that. Everyone else does not appreciate being refered to as an American, and will take it as an insult.

            • VCM says:

              not everyone, I know several people (including me) that hate when we sat I’m american and the logical question is really from where? I’m from (insert name of an USA state).
              But really mi nephew is 11 and he knows that there’s a country that’s called Germany

        • LOL says:

          hahaha I like this one Nyxie

  3. Emma says:

    Haha, go Drew. I’m from New Zealand where this interview was made and I thought this was hilarious when it aired. :P Surely our accent isn’t /that/ confusing?

    • Steph says:

      Oh, no, I myself love New Zealand accents! They’re not confusing for me! So yeah. Your country has a fan. *waves* I’ve always wanted to visit NZ.

    • Elle says:

      agreed – I’m from NZ too and it was funny as! And I really don’t get why our accent is to difficult to understand

      • Devon says:

        To NZers its not confusing, but to be honest, we talk REALLY slackly, I mean listen to Justin Bieber, she forms her words properly and she’s from one of the America’s. But yes she did see the word ‘German’ and Bieber’ probably, so shes as dumb as a post.

    • mooseinakilt says:

      Regardless of the accent (which isn’t confusing at all), he got to see the card where “German” was surely printed right on it. *facepalm*
      Maybe had it been a Scotsman interviewing him I could’ve understood the confusion.

  4. Alex says:

    What? Is German for basketball? WTF kind of question is that. That doesn’t make any sense.

  5. Nicole says:

    Um, he’s from Canada, not America.

    • Steph says:

      So we can return him?! QUICK! Where’s the receipt?!

    • Pope says:

      Canada is a part of America, no?
      >__> Just as the United States and Mexico are?

    • lollercoaster says:

      OMG U ARE SO RETARDED!!! America is not a country. America is all of the Americas (NORTH SOUTH +CENTRAL). saying you live in America is like saying you live in Mexico or Brazil or Canada Or any place IN THE AMERICAS.
      so many ignorant people in this world…pisses me off

      • Zippy117 says:

        Stop nit picking, he clearly isn’t smart enough to use the word right anyway.

      • peepers says:

        When you start of a reply with “omg u are so retarded!!!” you really lose the right to end the reply with “so many ignorant people in this world…pisses me off”

      • clipsie says:

        And yet, no. When one refers to themselves as an American, they are usually refering to the US of A. They do not refer to themselves as an American generally if they live in Canada, or Mexico, or any other part of the Americans. Whether you like it or not, that’s how it is generally taken by most people living in The Americas themselves, where we prefer to be taken as a person of our respective country rather than continental or otherwise.

        It’s not ignorance, it is common sense. If it is ignorance, do let me know what people from the US of A are refered to then?

        • sophie says:

          Agreed. I’m from the US, but I don’t refer to myself as a United States of American, just an American. I know people from Canada who say they’re Canadian, not American, and Mexicans who say they’re Mexican, not American. So yeah.

      • whatever says:

        No, America is not “all of the Americas.”
        Notice that you said “the Americas” and not “America.”
        if you want to refer to both North and South America, you either say “North and South America” or “The Americas.”
        What you’re proposing would be like saying “I’m from Dakota” and meaning you’re from North Dakota. If said person were to say “I’m from the Dakotas,” while it would sound a little strange, it would be far more correct.

        “America” is slang for the United States of America, while The Americas is used if referring to the two continents of North and South America.

    • H3nQ says:

      A Canadian is pretty much an American, only without firearms :P

  6. anon says:

    canada is in the continent of America (north to be more specific) why are those from the u.s.a. so ignorant?, there is more to america than the united states

    • Steph says:

      And most of us realize this. It’s just that the stupid ones get access to the Internet most often.

    • xKeVyOx says:

      Well then Columbia, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia etc. are in the continent of America too(south to be more specific). and then there’s Costa Rica, guatemala, and so on and so forth.

    • rewboss says:

      There is no such continent as “America”. There is a North America and a South America, but on its own, “America” is usually taken to mean the USA. A person from the USA is called an “American”, not a “United States of American”. If you want to refer to both continents together, you need to talk about “the Americas”.

      • P.L says:

        Your geography teacher wouldn’t approve.

      • Zel says:

        You forgot Central America, Einstein.

        • somebody says:

          just so you know “Einstein”… Central America isn’t it’s own continent. it’s part of North America. get your facts right before you criticize someone. and look it up if you don’t trust me.

          • Zel says:

            It’s a continuation of North America but it keeps being Central America, it’s own continent. No one can say that someone born in Honduras is a North Amercan. Your afirmation is as senseless as saying that Europe isn’t its own continent since it’s a continuation of Asia…

            • OMG..how stupid says:

              First of all I’ve lived in Honduras and Brazil and been to most countries in the western hemisphere. No one but those from the U.S. refer to themselves as Americans. Second a quick look at Wikipedia would confirm that Central America is a part of the North American continent. How stupid do you have to be to not be able to use the internet?

              • xKeVyOx says:

                Yeah, your right. And also, if one made it through sixth grade they should know with out using the internet that the seven continents do not include Central America.

              • lordfoamy says:

                Umm, Then please tell me what you refer to americans as? .. for that matter what do europeans refer to them as? .. I’ve never heard anyone talk about the ‘staters.’ Listen idiots, ‘America’ refers to the country ‘Americas’ refers to the continents.

            • peepers says:

              Zel, wow. You think Central America is a continent? You may be stupider than bieberbabe.

            • --- says:

              I may be wrong but its not considered its own continent due to the fact that it doesn’t lie on its own crustal plate.

        • Zel says:

          Oh, and by the way, Central America lies on it’s own crustal plate, the Caribbean Plate.

    • JULIO LUGO!!! says:

      I don’t think Bieber was referencing the continent. He was referencing the nation, which he has lived and worked in since he hit it big.

  7. arimareiji says:

    I hate to admit it, but… I completely sympathize with him on this one.

    I’d go “What?” too, if I heard someone say “Bieber”, take a pause, and then ask “Is Jew men for basketball?”

    • EllieWhite says:

      I sympathized with him…Until he showed him the paper that said “German” on it.

    • Heidi says:

      Except that Justin clearly repeated the question … “German for basketball?”
      He knew what the guy was saying, he just has no clue what “German” means.

      • Private_Danza says:

        I think he replied: “Chairman for basketball”?

        His mind going a mile a minute.

    Oh God that was cringy.

  10. BieberBabe says:

    you guys! think of it. he has over a million girls falling for him! he’s doing better then all you guys are for sure. PLUS anyone could have made that mistake. you prob would to so zip it. :(

    • peepers says:

      Dumbass.

      • BieberBabe says:

        Look who’s talking. Don’t judge others of yourself. :P

        • Zippy117 says:

          “Don’t judge others of yourself”? WTF? And BTW, one of my friends heard one of his songs on the radio, and admittedly, they did compliment his singing voice, but here’s what they said: “Wow, the person who did this song has a great voice. What’s her name?” and it took me ten minutes to convince them that it was a boy. Somehow, I don’t see how anyone could be attracted to a sixteen year old who looks like a twelve year old and sings like a ten year old girl.

            haha when i’ve heard him the first time on AFN Eagle, i thought this could be rihanna, but wasn’t sure.. but then the guy on the radio said blaa blaa justin bieber with one less lonely girl or whatever.. this was so shocking.. so uhm.. gay

          • Alias says:

            The first time I heard “him” on the radio, my friends made fun of me because I asked “Who is this girl?”

        • JP says:

          Yet, you tell others that they don’t have a life? Errrr.

          And, sure, he’s got millions of girls falling for him (hope they hit their head hard enough not to get up, btw) – preteens, most of them, being far younger than he is. They’re not legal. Don’t think (most) people here would care…

          Peepers is also far more awesome than Justin Beaver ever will be. <3

          (also, learn English. I'm not even a native speaker, but mine is still far better than yours.
          Also, I do have a life, kthx. I know what German is, and I DID understand the guy's accent (and wouldn't have needed to see the cue card to get it either). So spare me your retarded drool that you try and pass for "words" and go back to crying into your pillow over the fact that The Biebs will never love you.)

    • weregoat says:

      your argument isn’t helping, hun. “anyone could have mad that mistake”. um, not after they SHOW HIM THE CARD with the question written on it. the added “we don’t say that in America” just makes him look even more like an idiot.
      also, wtf does “having a million girls falling for him” have to do with anything? doesn’t mean he has talent. it means he got lucky genetically to be considered “cute”.

    • Marvin says:

      Anyone could have made this mistake?!? Germany isn’t this important as a country but at least in *writing* he should have got it! I mean, it’s just the name!

      Somehow he reminds me of this blonde woman which was on failblog some time ago. She was asked about Hungary by the host of the quiz show she was in.

      • Me says:

        Ah, and who decides which country is “important” and which isn’t? The people of the United States?

          I am german myself… and I personally don’t agree with people who blindly think that their home country is the best in any aspect just because it is the only one they know this well…

      I can understand not being able to tell what he was saying because of the accent but after he was SHOWN the piece of paper he still didn’t know.

        NO not anyone could have made that mistake genius. Secondly People like you have such a delusionary view on life you think that people hate on something just because you think they are Jealous. XD WOW that is the most childish logic I have ever heard. Majority of the people that make fun of this kid are not Jealous you tool. We just think it’s so dam funny what an ass he makes out of himself and how simple minded his fans can be. In other words when we make fun of someone it’s not because we are jealous it’s because you’re a pretty dam sad individual.

        Prove honey, it’s spelt prove

      • Sliksyth says:

        Ok lets slow down. it seems to me your making a very simple mistake. You make it sound like i get a choice when im 16 with these two answers.

        1. know anything about anything that isnt america
        2. Have a life.

        I tend to you know, have both? Any girls that like justin bieber i would dislike anyway because of the taste in music, he can have them. I like to think of it as weeding out the weaker and stupider girls, you know like natural selection? It leaves the better ones for us. Yay justin bieber! A world wide dumbass filter.

        also “your point” that no one who is 16 is expected to know anything about anything that isnt america? Thats just pants on head retarded, Justin might be a popular singer but its no excuse for not knowing something so ass tardidly obvious. “thats not something we say in america” is priceless, this is so on my i pod. Only infants make this mistake.

      • Marcela says:

        I thinks is a shame people judging you because you like Justin Bieber. You have as much right to like him as they have to hate him.
        But I am interested nonetheless: What is your point? And also: What if he’s cooler than everyone here? What’s so grand about that?

  13. Kayy says:

    I have to stand up for Justin Bieber here… it SOUNDS like the guy is saying “Is German for Basketball?” because the way he says it doesn’t make it clear that he is asking if “Bieber” means Basketball in the German language. I too was like, WTF is he asking?

  14. Daniel says:

    Yes Kayy, but then he repeats the word german and shows Bieber how german is written, and still Bieber doesn’t know what that means, so or he doesn’t know what is Germany, or he doesn’t know how to write it.

    • Narcil says:

      I don’t think Bieber’s issue was that he didn’t understand the word “German,” but that he didn’t understand the question itself. The host asks the question, “Is German for baseketball?,” then repeats the word “German” several times and then points out the word “German” on a card.” That doesn’t really clear up the problem, does it? The is issue was not the word “German,” it was a very poorly phrased question.

      Host fail on this one.

      • Emma says:

        Presumably Drew had the entire question and probably the answer written on his card, so unless he had covered up everything except the word ‘German’ I don’t see how he could have gotten it wrong.

      • Ispeeeksinglish says:

        YES, YES, A THOUSAND TIMES, YES! Narcil – WIN! This is the problem – the question made no grammatical sense!

        You could have a Rhodes Scholar sitting in that chair, who’d have answered “I’m sorry, what was your question?!?” This whole string of posts makes me worry about the future of our planet…Most of the LOLCats make more sense.

    • BieberBabe says:

      it was a mistake anyone could have made. you guys think that everybody thinks the same way as you. i can tell you now. we (me and justin) had a problem understanding what he said, and then the question itself. so get a life and stop judging ppl the wrong way.

      • MadaraXIII says:

        Do the World a favor and quit riding Justin Biebers piece like a rodeo. You’re just proving how sad and what a no lifer you are by constantly defending a celebrity who needs none of your mindless comments. What dont you get that the question was in plain english on the piece of paper?!? Sheesh woman you are fighting a losing battle. The only one who is defending such Stupidity is you. Now Logic would deduct that if everyone besides you came to the conclusion that this was just a pure idiotic mistake then you might agree as well. Sadly you’re too busy trying to “Proove” how smart you are by saying anyone would have made that mistake at the age. Well considering 16 year olds now a day I would probably have to agree with you.

        Bieberbabe… Seriously. The guy sounds like his parents stamped on his testicles every day untill he was five. I couldn’t stick Bieber before, but after this video I hate the moron even more. ‘it was a mistake anyone could have made’… You…Do have an education don’t you? Or have you seen TV before, germany is sometimes mentioned on Dora the explorer, or is that programme a little too strenuous on your feeble, ill-educated mind?

      • museumnut says:

      • cakeislie says:

        He READ the card and still didn’t know what he was talking about… maybe he can’t read? Also, it is possible to be educated and have a life.

  23. JessfromNZ says:

    I live in NZ and i watched this, srsly WTF how does he not know what the word “GERMAN” mean?? He was shown it and our accents don’t make it sound weird, just shows that Justin is dumb and he is a DIVA, he showed that when he was in NZ too.

        but then again, what if one day, mankind will have to settle on the moon because we destroyed the earth?
        uh, decisions, decisions…

  28. dclynch says:

    Obviously Beiber thought, and I thought, that the Australians have begun using German as a verb. Beiber is german for basketball. Could have avoided it by asking, “Beiber means basketball in German. True or False.”

    I am german for this clip beginning the use of german as a verb.

  29. Alen says:

    What is the interviewer even asking? “Is German for basketball?” That’s what I keep hearing.

    • vandalfan says:

      Exactly! It sounded to me like the interviewer was asking “Is Jim into basketball?” Well, who the heck is Jim? Poor kid. Considering the traditional fate of Disney manufactured teen stars, he’s certainly not going to be translating German, or Bwitish.

  30. BieberBabe
    It’s a funny blog, making fun of celebrities, if you were on it to begin with, then you’re on it to get a laugh at celebrities. Justin Beiwhatever is a celebrities. If you look at the English word German on a piece of paper, at 16, and you have no idea ‘what it means’, then you are a moron. There is no opinion one way or another there. You can be as famous as you want, it doesn’t earn you a PHD.

    The image of a 12 year old sitting at the other end of the internetz, refreshing over and over, waiting for the next comment so she can tell them to get a life, needs to be screenied for the Irony page.

  31. Jewmush says:

    Dear Jesus! As an American trying to stand up for all sensibly educated
    people, we do not claim Just Bieber as an American. He is a pasty-skinned foreigner whom we wish to permanently export.

  32. Meg says:

    Who the hell is Justin Bieber and how does she not know what Germany is? The education system has obviously failed in the case of this poor young lady.

  33. HollyfromNZ says:

    Do you really not say that something is ‘german for’ a word or ‘French for’ a word in America?
    Just curious…I’ve heard people say it in every other country I’ve been to.

  34. JessfromNZ says:

    HAH Holly me too what a douche he was, super rude too, did you see him on What Now when the L&P fizzed everywhere on him and he had a tantrum, walked offf and refused to come back on till he got a new shirt WTF. Drew is THE MAN, he even showed this clip on the show today and said that it wa son the news in Aussie and the US. HAH

  35. That one dude. says:

    Jawoll!
    He does not know of our existance. ZIS IS PERFEKT for meine Plaaans!

  36. EllyFromNZ says:

    Hahah, both Drew Neemia (the host) and and Justin are kind of idiotic, and deserve each other.
    And even though the question wasn’t phrased in the best manner, saying the word ‘german’ doesn’t exist in america is a dumbass way to cover up.

    … Plus our accent aren’t that hard to understand. D:

  37. Nic says:

    Maybe Bieber is American for severely stupid…

  38. frenchylolly says:

    Ok ok calm down everyone! We all know that America is a country BUT it is common use to say America instead of the USA and it is such in the whole world I think. And we all know that Mexicans, Canadians, Chilians or whoever live on the continent of America… but only the people of the USA are only called Americans. I mean Mexicans are Americans, but for people living in the USA, there is no other way to call them.
    It is alsmot the same debate that took place about the Netherlands. We all know what the Netherlands are, but we keep on calling it Holland, although it is only the name of one of the regions.
    So stop insulting people and think yourself a genius because you clame America is a continent because we all know that. Don’t be geography Nazis, there is another social reality that makes everyone call the USA “America”.
    As to Justin Bieber… well I never expected him to be smart, regarding his songs, but seriously, GERMAN?!!!? WTF, I did not know it was even possible for a guy coming from a highly developed country to ignore what is German. Damn, go back to school boy, you will please everyone!

  39. 10815 says:

    Wow, I gotta tell my German friend about this, she loves him for some strange reason!

  40. Liz says:

    I haven’t ever heard his music so no comment on that, however how many of YOU know the German word for basketball? It was a poorly phrased question asked in an accent unfamiliar to a very young person. Give the kid a break.

  41. Sorka says:

    I don’t think he has many German Fans. I live in Germany and the only place I hear about him is this site :)
    By the way: German word for basketball is basketball, we have many words from the english language, especially when it comes to sports.

    • lephantome92 says:

      I’m taking Spanish. Are words that are the same in both English and German still called cognates? They make leaning some new words easy!!

  42. Ember says:

    If I’m not mistaken, the interviewer said “Justin Beiber is German for Basketball.” That is a statement, not a question. Maybe he forgot to put the word “What” in there; for example, “Justin Beiber, what is German for Basketball?” Either way, the interviewer is just as lame as the cue card writer.

    • dave says:

      Yes, he did say “Beiber is German for Basketball”, but followed immediately by “True or false”. So yes, he made a statement, and then asked immediately whether it is true or false. That is a very common thing in English, and this little pretard choked severely, showing the world what a dense muppet he is. Put down the mic and pick up a book, kid!

  43. VIsaac521 says:

    “German? I don’t know what that means. We don’t say that in America.”
    Yeah, I SO TOTALLY don’t EVER use the word “German” when I speak an EVERYDAY LANGUAGE! This kid needs to go back to school. He makes me weep for future youth.

  44. soso104 says:

    …HIS NAME IS GERMAN!
    (it’s german for beaver lol)

  45. Storm says:

    Omg thats not fair on him cos i dont know wat the crazy ozzie is ask him… i mean german + basket ball what the f*#k do u want to ask. i think that crazy ozzie must revew that question and get it strait… idiots that made that quest should be smacked across the face….

    • Storm says:

      Though that is tipical american, there will always be a miss comunication between them

      • MadaraXIII says:

        WoooooooooooooooW first off Justin Beiber is in no way American and no one else in this video is American. Secondly HOW THE F*** Can you Not get that?!? How is it Not fair that if he didnt get the question he was shown the card with the question written plain as day!!?!?!?! God Dang it all. He made a Stupid Mistake people. Why can’t you accept the fact he FAILED Hard?

        And Finally please at least type some words write. I know this is the Internet and Poor Literacy now a days Is “KEWL”, but take the time to be a little clear at what you’re saying instead of looking like a chimpanzee typed your comment.

        • MadaraXIII says:

  46. Luth says:

    Ha, I normally dont read all of the comments especially when there are so many of them, but this BieberBabe is so much fun to read, lol…
    Seriously, this kid repeated the same damn thing at least 10 times, bravely ignoring all the comments that have sense or logic… A medal for persistence :o )))
    It also means she spent a hell of a time here so you guys better take that advice to “get a life” :o D
    …oh dear… When did stupidity become a virtue?

  47. VeryAnonMadonna says:

    He said America, because he probably thought they wouldn’t know where or what Canada is.

    My guess!

  48. boo boo face says:

    The actual question was confusing. The host starts out saying “justin…uhh…bieber sorry is german for basketball?” Sounds like the host just said his full name and then “is german for basketball?”
    Hard to explain…but I’m pretty sure justin knows what german is.

  49. Lynx says:

    Why would he care if he lost his German fans? He wasn’t even aware that they existed!

  50. Charlotte says:

    HAHAHAHAHA thats funny! Im from New Zealand and the host is drew,who hosts a music show on our c4 channel called vodafone select live. Ican’t believe Bieber couldnt understand the question even after he read it! I’m pretty sure he hates NZ now,Since he arrived he has had his hat stolen and held for ransom by a fan-girl who wanted a hug, Sprayed with L&P (a fizzy drink) and now this….i almost feel sorry for him

  51. Phlegmboy says:

    Man, just how bad was Justine’s education when sher doesn’t know what German is. Doesn’t say much for the US system, does it.

  52. ducky says:

    I’m not a Beiber fan but I had to watch this over and over again to get what the hell was being asked. The interviewer screwed up the second time and didn’t say the whole Is Beiber blah blah blah. The question he asked made no sense after that. This really shouldn’t be that big of a deal, anyone could have been confused in the position and it’s not like other stars haven’t screwed up and said something stupid. This was made more of a deal then it should have been, give the kid a break.

  53. Relio says:

    Is Justin Canadian or American because he would be dissing both those countries by saying “We don’t say that in America”
    I think that he thought it was a new slang or something…you know how kids these days make new words for like or fancy. So its an innocent mistake because I made it too..haha I am his age but from New Zealand. I know where Germany is and their Language German. so Kapeesh I do not like his baby whining music.

  54. xKeVyOx says:

    For a bunch of people who don’t really like the kid, you sure are spending a lot of time thinking about him.

  55. GokdkjH says:

    CRASH AND BURN BEIBER! Drew is awesome, i’ve nevr seen so much fail from one of his guests! Man I wish I’d seen that at the time!

  59. Jimmylou says:

  60. missthan says:

    Will that make my horrible teacher go away? She’s German but teaches French…

  61. Daph. says:

    There go his three German fans…

  62. bakedpotatoes says:

    Well I should HOPE he has an accent. EVERYONE HAS AN ACCENT *tears out hair*.

  63. Thatguy says:

    What German fans?

  64. Ispeeeksinglish says:

    OK. “Is German for basketball? True or False?” Is Polish for soccer? Is Russian for table tennis? Someone throws out an incomplete sentence and asks “true or false” and people post this and make fun of the person who politely says “I don’t understand”?!?!? He could have rudely responded “You’re butchering your native language. Speak in complete sentences and I’ll answer your half-witted questions you nimrod.” What do you want?!

  65. Apathygrrl says:

    Although I don’t care for Justin in the slightest, I kinda feel as though I should come to his defence because Justin does indeed know what the word “German” is. He has been to Germany. He has been interviewed in Germany. He even counted to 10 in German during an interview. There’s a video of him doing that on youtube somewhere. This was before he went to NZ.
    As for this video, I think I understand what Justin was thinking at that time. When the interviewer first asked him the question, it’s pretty obvious that Justin didn’t hear the word properly (i.e. Jew man). When the interviewer repeated the question, Justin didn’t understand the use of the word German in that context. The way the interviewer phrased it made it sound as though he was using the word German as some sort of slang term for desire or like (i.e. “Bieber is itching for basketball” or “Bieber is jonesing for basketball”). This is why Justin still didn’t understand the question even after reading the card. This is also why he said “We don’t say that in America” and “I like basketball, if that’s what you’re asking me.” He thought that “German” was possibly a slang term used in New Zealand. Of course, we know it isn’t, but he didn’t know that. If the interviewer had rephrased the question to something like “True or False: In Germany, the word Bieber means basketball,” then Justin would have understood what he meant. But it’s too late, the net has blown it all out of proportion.

  66. wtfman! says:

    german for basketball is basketball…. theres no change. and thats dumb. im younger thsn justin and i know what german is….

  67. loveJB says:

    ok listen, the dude has a thick accent ok! justin knows what german is and he is fluent it german. he loves basketball too. so shut the f*** up ok. don’t be such a holes!

  68. Dani says:

    I used to watch this show until this host came on. He’s absolute balls at hosting. Americans also can’t seem to understand our accent. Also, Justin Bieber is sucky. Point made.

  69. not me says:

    That’s ok. I’m sure there are lots of people in Germany who have no idea who Justin Bieber is.

  70. wollinder92 says:

    I hope he wasn’t serious.

  71. Marisa says:

    The sad part is when the guy shows Justin the question.
    He still didn’t get it. :/

  72. BABYbabyBABY says:

    He totally knows wat it meanz but the announcer guy said it rong.

    • MadaraXIII says:

      You’re right on that one. Sadly though it wouldnt take but 2 secs of comprehension after reading the card. Either way you slice it they both fail. So WHOOOOOOOo

      also I hate to be an ass but LOL the irony wont let me go. You Spelled wrong wrong XD

  73. jburkes92 says:

    Why do people keep making fun of Justin Bieber? She seems like such a nice girl…

  74. we hate JUSTIN BIEBER OK!!!

  75. emmmm says:

    drew doesnt have an accent
    all you americans do!!!!
    joax

  76. sophia says:

    Good call, callahan!! I mean he doesn’t know what german is OR how to walk through a revolving door OR how to sing – UNTRIPLE THREAT!!

    • paws4thot says:

      Despite him being alledgedly a teenage boy, he also doesn’t appear to know what sechs is either!

  77. mike says:

    he had fans?

  78. amber808 says:

    XD LOL, Justin Biber (beaver) doesn’t know what German is!? OMG, that is just so funny because of the stupidity of American (no offence so some American who DO know what German is) Well, i’m half German, but i was never a fan (when i first heard one of his songs, i fought it was a girl singing) *shakes head* You know, the only fan i thought he had, was his mum…. (Oooooh burn. My friend would kill me if i said that to her)

  79. Kiwi Princess says:

    I’m a New Zealander and seriously? Interviewer’s fault. Grow up. I can understand your rednecks so you can understand how us kiwis talk. Drew doesn’t even have a strong accent. My uncle greeted us at the airport with “Wilcom back to New Zild”. So Justin you got PWNed and any fans who dis my country can come down here and say that.

  80. Icke says:

    It sounded like “It’s jurm in ba baskebol, true or folds?”

  81. Lizzieee says:

    Hahahahahahaha Shame.. How the hell could he not understand that. And then still not know AFTER he read the word.
    Hahaha XD

  82. Emeline says:

    Wow. Just wow. A sixteen year old kid doesn’t even know what German is. When I was eight, I knew what German was! I knew where the country of Germany was!

    I love Justin Bieber. But my respect for him diminishes significantly every single day now. He swears, he calls a girl his “prized possession”, he walks straight into a glass door and he doesn’t even know what German is!!!

    Truth be told though, the interviewer did not make much sense. Wait, that’s a lie. I didn’t understand it is all. Just because you don’t understand something, doesn’t mean it makes no sense. Words to live by…

    Then again, it didn’t make much sense anyway. I asked all my friends if they could understand it and they couldn’t. Still, Bieber didn’t get it even after he was shown the card!!! What is up with him?!

    Bye!

  83. Emeline says:

    Actually- I changed my mind. I just watched it again and I could understand that interviewer perfectly. Seriously, I just watched it again and undertood every word, clear as glass.

  84. caitwon says:

    i think justin did’nt know what basktball meant in German………

  85. mr. potatohead says:

    FYI Justin Bieber does know what Germany is. Last year in an interview with W-5 he mentioned the country when he was talking about his international appeal.

  86. JH says:

    why did that girl not know what German is?

  87. Stop Fighting! says:

    I cannot believe that there are 319 comments about Justin Bieber. Is he seriously worth arguing over?

    • Not one of you. says:

      -_- You just added a comment. And so did I. So how about everyone just please STFU. I don’t understand how everyong can keep debating this little freak of nature.

  88. Lotta says:

    he didn’t understood the question quite right, so it looks as if he doesn’t know what german is…
    the guy asked “Justin, beiber is german for basketball, true or false?”
    but i think he does know what german is…

  89. freklez says:

    hay hes a kiwi like me so i dont hear wat it is ur hearing

    • Kianaaa says:

      To be honest I’m from Canada, and I don’t hear it either.

      and even if Stupid Bieber doesn’t understand, the host showed him the word so he has no excuse.

  90. Jason says:

    Maybe he’s having a panic attack cuz he can’t understand the host? Anyways people in his profession usually aren’t that bright, imho…

    Btw Germany rocks, man… How could ANYONE not know that?

  91. endoskeleton says:

    You guys are just as dumb as him. Germane.

  92. Kianaaa says:

    wait, in AMERICA????!!! HE’S A CANADIAN! HE’S COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN WHERE HE’S FROM!

    No offense to any religious people who read this but
    For chrissake Justin. in Canada & America everyone past the age of 4 knows what a German is!

    God! you make me ashamed to be from the same country as you. (WHICH IS CANADA YOU STUPID!)
    At least he’s an american citizen now.

    and I don’t have to stand him anymore.

  93. Mike says:

    I just facepalmed through my own skull. I want to punch this kid.

  94. Lin says:

    I actually had to watch the clip a few times to understand wtf the interviewer was asking. The “is German for basketball, true or false” was clearly obvious, but the pause after he said “Bieber” made it seem like the subject of the sentence was “German” instead of the object.

    Not so much the Bieb’s mistake as the interviewer’s for not repeating the entire question so it made grammatical sense.

  95. bri says:

    how bout he just sux period.

  96. Meowcifer says:

    First off, I am totally not a Justin Bieber fan. I think he’s about the equivalent of Aaron Carter.
    Second, I can see why he was confused. I know what Germany is, and that it’s a language (Seriously, who doesn’t?), but the question was terribly confusing. The interviewer messed up. He said “Justin..Bieber, sorry, is german for basketball, true or false?” If I was Justin Bieber, I would have thought the question was “Is german for basketbal, true or false?”
    And that just doesn’t make any sense, does it?

  97. Sarah says:

    I love him but HAHA! I think everyone knows what German is… & he just goes “I like basketball” :L

  98. Thomas says:

    Yeah, he likes basketball. He’s also retarded.

  99. Sortech says:

    He get shown the card were it stands “German”
    When he ask what the host say, Bieber pronounced it “German” and not “Jewman”. He is just a little slow.. thats all.

  100. bobbbbbbb says:

    Another Canadian traitor….. “We don’t say that in America.” You’re Canadian Justin!!! Have some pride for your country. I’m quite ashamed of my fellow Canuck for that and also the question was quite clear. What an idiot. Next thing you know he’ll be writing about his “favorite” “color”.

    *Gosh*

  101. krisley says:

    Whoa! :O
    Well..we can’t blame him,he’s just a kid.
    But still is kinda weird he doesn’t know what the word “German” is.

    • krisley says:

      I think he wasn’t paying that much of a attention,that’s why when he was asked he seem kinda lost there.He got kinda nervous too and didn’t know what to answer so he just said: “We don’t say that in America” wich was kinda dumb to say knowing he’s Canadian.

  102. METH says:

    Germany is insignificant

  103. wtf says:

    He isn’t even American : /

  104. Brenana says:

    LOL this is even better than Miss South Carolina.
    “What is German?”
    “German, y’kno- forget it”
    “I like basketball”

  105. Harry Potter says:

    hey biberbabe you suck and also Avabra Kadaba!!!

  106. Thing says:

    Haha this was totally hilarious, and the interviewer (Drew) doesn’t really have all that much of an accent, especially since he shows the justin the question card…. still pretty funny though, although this interview did loose him a few New Zealand fans….

  107. axe9 says:

    to be fare, it sounded like he was saying “Is German for Basketball..” I believe the question was “Is Bieber German for Basketball” It took me a second too… oh god…

  108. Sawa says:

    Whatever, Bieber is still German for beaver.

  109. NeonSkittles says:

    Geez, any ordinary person could make this mistake and everyone would cut them some slack and think nothing of it.. But when a celebrity does it, everyone’s like “This guy is such an idiot..” probably because they just don’t like they’re music/mainstream crap… It’s crap..
    ..I never thought I’d see the day when I stick up for Justine..
