Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with our intrepid correspondents. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.
You wouldn't think it just by looking at him, but Justin Bieber is a bit of a lightning rod for controversy. Earlier this morning, Bieber was supposed to play a brief show on Australian morning show "Sunrise," but the event had to be scrapped when a throng of screaming fans stampeded toward the stage and created a dangerous environment for other attendees. "Everybody was just shoving and pushing forward. They had two massive screens out, and they started to play Justin Bieber songs and everybody started cheering and pushing forward more," 13-year-old eyewitness Sophie Kelly recounted for the Sydney Morning Herald. "But [the host] was acting like the whole thing was a joke, and he kept on adding Justin Bieber things in there and so people just kept on screaming and pushing forward more." As many as 4,000 fans were involved in the melee, with a handful treated for injuries and taken to a local hospital. The police pulled the plug before any more damage could be done. These types of crowds tend to follow Bieber wherever he goes, as other events had to be canceled in Paris and on Long Island, New York last year after crowds created dangerous situations.
Bieber wasn't the only star thrilling the public, as "The Hills" star Kristin Cavallari paid a visit to the poll at CityCenter in Las Vegas and Jennifer Lopez hopped around Paris while supporting "The Back-Up Plan."
