By now, you’ve probably heard about Olivia Wilde’s tweet to Justin Bieber:
“Bieber, put your f–king shirt on (Unless you lost all your shirts in a fire in which case my condolences and please purchase a new shirt.)”
The Biebs has been in London, possibly having a meltdown/definitely having the “worst birthday” ever. And it’s cold in London. So a photo emerges of the Biebs entering his hotel, sans shirt., and Olivia offers some friendly advice.
Naturally, Beliebers attacked. And Olivia Wilde, being the super-funny, super-sarcastic person that she is, fought back. On Jay Leno.
“He is in London and it’s so cold there and I was concerned,” Wilde told Leno on Tuesday. “I said it with love.”
“I got a lot of interesting feedback from his fans . . . about 35 million people. They had some really great notes and I have some of them for you,” she continued.
“At first I thought they were being mean, but then I realized it’s just helpful advice. It was friendly advice like I gave to him.”
Wilde then took the least expletive-ridden tweets she could find and read them out loud:
“‘Are you a lesbian or are you too old?’” One Belieber wrote. “It’s great because it’s a question I had never asked myself before. And I was wondering if it’s that I’m too old to be a lesbian because I did just have a birthday, so I may have missed my window.”
Good for you, girl. Get the last laugh! Few have been bold enough to take on the Beliebers, but showing how crazy they’re acting makes you seem more sane than ever.
Watch the full clip here. How would you handle an angry mob of Beliebers? Does anyone else think that they need to calm down?

a shining example of how not to take twitter too seriously.
I don’t like Bieber, but I have mixed feelings on this. While he is a moron for walking through London without a shirt, an adult shouldn’t be so harsh. And when you’re as famous as he is, you pretty much can’t do a damn thing without it being noticed by the entire world, positive or negative. Just let him be an idiot and catch pneumonia, it won’t effect you any.
Hahaha she rules.
I LOVE Olivia Wilde and Justin Bieber is an arrogant t*at
P.S. I am neither old nor a lesbian, just FYI 
Go Olivia!! =D
She always tries to be funny and she’s just not. Please leave that to Jason. You are beautiful, please stick to that.
I personally find her very funny and I think it’s very harsh of you to effectively be saying “just shut up and look pretty”.
Why then do you not find it harsh for her to humiliate a teenager by saying “Bieber, put your f–king shirt on” to the world? She did it for attention and to make herself look cool. Really? She’s 29 yrs old. Its not mature or cute. If she has access to millions of people, why not say something positive about her great work for the impoverished in Haiti or PETA? I’m not a Bieleber or whatever his fans call themselves, but who amongst wasn’t sometimes cheesy and immature at 19?
He’s 19, he’s legally an adult, he can legally drink and purchase alcohol in most countries, he could legally go fight for his country, I think he can handle being told to put his shirt on. And don’t make 29 seem so old, it’s not! I’m almost there and I still feel 19!
Except when I’m hungover. Then I feel 59.
To be fair, there are loads of other celebrities who tweet far worse things–Twitter being apparently the universal public forum for crazy celebs these days–and frankly, Justin has managed to humiliate himself on Twitter without anyone else’s help. Have you not seen his recent Twitter tirades…? I mean, come ON. I refuse to believe I was that narcissistic 8 years ago.
Twitter is stupid and funny. Thank GOD Olivia Wilde doesn’t take herself so seriously to just be tweeting about her humanistic work all the time, that would be obnoxious. Funny, joke-y, sarcastic tweets? WIN!
I also must say that your “leave that to Jason, stick to being beautiful” thing was incredibly offensive and sexist. What an aggressive opinion you have for someone who claims not to be a “Belieber”.
Stephanie, you’re right that she was being immature, but is there some reason you couldn’t just put it that way? Telling anyone, male or female, to stick to their looks instead of speaking their thoughts just makes you sound ignorant, which I’m guessing you’re really not.
Well, his peer group is girls aged 11-16; rationality is not quite the biggest strength at that age.
Very true! Some of these kids are pretty vicious though, I was kind of shocked reading what they wrote.
Well, kids don’t always think about other people’s feelings (remember all the bullies in middle and high school?), especially if they can post anonymously on the internet.
I totally agree with you. That’s why cyber bullying is a huge issue at that age.
She rocks
Her and The Black Keys’ Patrick Carney both showed the “Beleibers” how irrational they reacted.
First I would like to say how awesome Olivia Wilde is. But most importantly I think it’s great that she can take the comments that others have said about her and mock them for their stupidity in a subtle way. Good for you Olivia!
It was a clever poke at him. No one wants to see him without a shirt on. My youngest sister is a year younger than he is, and has more sense than to walk around cold London without a shirt on. He’s clearly having a mental breakdown of some kind (because Britney went through the same stuff before “the umbrella incident”), and Bieber’s fans need to take some chill pills.
