One Direction's Louis Tomlinson, Professor Green defend Justin Bieber's questionable London behavior

One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson along with English rapper Professor Green have come forward to defend Justin Bieber following his whirlwind week in London.

Bieber’s 19th birthday kicked off a week of questionable behavior, from allegedly trying to sneak underage friends into a club for his birthday, walking the streets of London wearing a gas mask, arriving two hours late for his performance at the O2 arena, passing out backstage from lack of breath and yesterday’s much talked about paparazzi encounter where the singer lunged at a reporter only to be held back by his bodyguard.

British cutie Tomlinson came to the Biebs’s defense via Twitter on Friday, Entertainment Wise reported.
“Although I don't know him personally, I do wish the press would take it easy on @justinbieber ,” he began. He adds, “I really do empathise with him, I don't see anything out of character in comparison to any other teenagers I know.”

Entertainment Wise noted that Professor Green also came to the “Boyfriend” singer’s defense, throwing in his two cents — also via Twitter.
“I'm team bieber on this one. You get the odd pap who's alright - the rest are weirdos.” Adding, “imagine having to deal with arsehole's following you everywhere and constantly trying to bate you into a response . . .”
