LOS ANGELES — Justin Bieber is used to attracting crowds. But he had at least one follower too many when somebody tailed him on a Los Angeles freeway, and it led to a speeding ticket for the teen idol.
The singer of “Boyfriend” and “Baby” was cited for driving in excess of 65 mph at about 10:45 a.m. Friday, after calls came in complaining of a freeway chase on southbound U.S. Highway 101 near Studio City, said Officer Ming Hsu of the California Highway Patrol.
The 18-year-old crooner told officers he was being chased by paparazzi, and investigators confirmed he was being followed by at least one vehicle, Hsu said.
“The second vehicle left the area and there’s a search to find that driver,” Hsu said.
Hsu did not have a description of the other vehicle.
A call and an email to Bieber’s publicist weren’t immediately returned.
