With all the troubles Justin Bieber is going through recently, fans are beginning to wonder if the people in his life are the source of his problematic behavior. Sometimes lovers and friends turn out to be plagues. For Bieber and many other musicians, these people can result in bad behavior and there’s no stopping them.

Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun told to rethink his friendship with budding rapper Lil Za and to boot him from the singer’s home. The advice went unheeded and Bieber’s house was raided by police after an egg-throwing incident resulting in Lil Za’s arrest on drug possession.

If Bieber continues to act out and hang around people such as the troublemaking rapper, he will risk his reputation as well as his career. Whitney Houston, Kurt Cobain and even Joe Jonas have suffered in various ways due to the relationships with people who didn’t seem to care about the risks they were taking.

Unfortunately for some on the list, the result was death and for others, it was dark period in their life. Either way, the fallout of these relationships should serve as a warning to Bieber if he wants to get his career back on track and keep the attention focused on what made him famous in the first place: his music.
